The Future… What do you think will happen next?

Interpreting ‘%’ Bar Graphs... A percentage bar graph has a scale of 0-100 percent

Interpreting ‘%’ Bar Graphs... A Key/Legend is essential

Interpreting ‘%’ Bar Graphs... Each bar is the ‘same’ length because each bar represents 100%

Interpreting ‘%’ Bar Graphs... Sections within the bar show the percentage of each item that makes up a whole

Your Task... Identify the strongest and weakest % of your region’s Access to ICT. List the actual % for each of these in comparison to the other regions. Calculate the difference between the percentage of GDP of your region and Africa What conclusions can you make from your region using specific examples from the graph

Regional overview of main indicators, World 2006 Your Task... Regional overview of main indicators, World 2006

For Homework... Over the weekend find a newspaper article of a particular refugee/immigration crisis These could include: Asylum Seekers/Detention Centres Immigration/migration problems Tourism problems (Not enough or too many people) You may research an article on the internet however print a copy and bring it next lesson.
