1. Wednesday 26 th September To describe and explain demographic trends.

2. What have we learnt so far?

4. The worlds population is projected to increase to 12 billion in 40 years, 24 billion in 80 years, 48 billion in 120 years,

5. KEY DEFINITIONS Fertility rate – the average number of children born to women of the reproductive age Crude birth rate – total number of live births for every 1000 of the population Age specific birth rate – the number of births in a given age group in relation to the total number in the same age group

6. KEY DEFINITIONS Mortality - the rate at which people are dying in a population. Crude death rate – the total number of deaths per year per 1000 of the total population Age specific death rate – the number of deaths in a specific age group Standardised Mortality Ratio (SMR) - compares deaths observed with projected death rates ( in relation to age – sex projected statistics)

7. Discuss current patterns and trends in global population. (25 marks) Structure 1.Introduction – population is always dynamic(changing) describe and explain the input and output system. 2. Population change over time – use the graph to help you describe what has happened since 1750-today. 3. Population growth and speed of growth - and what is predicted for the future. Problems that this may cause = John Vidal “Battle for scarce resources.” 4. Why is population increasing? BR and DR – describe and use the factors affecting fertility and death rates. If your really clever you can divide these into the Political, economic, social, cultural, religious. Use data from PRB fact sheet to support your observations...especially growth of LEDCs. 5. Population Distribution and density on a global (Macro), Continental(Meso) and Regional (micro) scale. Use the dot maps, your notes on global distribution and Brazil/Uk handout for this. 6. Provide reasons for the variations in distribution and density at each scale. eg climate, soils, altitude, government, education, welfare state. USE KEY TERMS BR DR TFR IMR DISTRIBUTION DENSITY (highlight these in bold)

8. Structure Always say why Define key terms

9. Intro P E S C R Conclusion

10. Paragraph Structure Reference to the question Point Explanation Evidence
