Thursday & Friday Jan 22nd and 23rd. Days 11 & 12

OBJECTIVE: Given a chromebook with access to the internet as well as access to their Google drive acct, students will research data about their selected country and fill-in a data sheet. This data sheet will be used to build an Infographic on a Poster Board

RATIONALE: Students need to understand the key population components that are present in each country to understand their challenges as it relates to advancing along the Demographic Transition Model sequence from a lower stage country to a more modern stage country

EVIDENCE: By filling in the chart, students will become demonstrate the ability to locate specific data from a data packet, translate that data into a graph or chart, and then display that data in an Infographic for easier understanding.

Here are a few sites to help you with your infographic. (some of these sites will require a personal email, the SJUSD email you have will not work because you cannot receive emails on that address)
These will not solve the issue of building the infographic, but can help in design ideas or maybe a graphic or 2
