8 Engaging Lessons on Population

Population Lessons and Readings on the Academic DVD​These lessons tend to fall in three categories:
1) Understanding population dynamics, such as the history of world pop growth, age distribution, trends and projections, etc.
2) Connections between population pressures, resource use and environmental health
3) Connections between population pressures and societal trends such as girls’ status, poverty, development, public health, etc.Included in the Academic DVD are the following lesson plans, activities and readings:
  1. Earth: The Apple of Our Eye: It’s a quick demonstration that serves as a discussion starter on land use (especially arable land).​
  2. Population Circle: This is a good visualization of how rapidly the world population has grown over the past century.​
  3. Food for Thought: It’s a global simulation where students are divided into different world regions according to population distribution. They then compare stats for demographics, resource use, education and public health using different props.​
  4. Everything is Connected: Students create a concept map examining the cause and effect relationships between population growth and a host of environmental and economic topics. As they create the web, students can really see how population pressures impact so many aspects of our lives. ​
  5. Lessons for Life: Focuses on the importance of girls’ education.​
  6. A Girl’s Life: Examines the role of education for girls, it also introduces older students to issues of child marriage, women’s work, pregnancy and motherhood in less developed countries.​
  7. The People Connection is high school level reading that will give your students a base knowledge of demographic trends and related issues.​
  8. Seven Billion and Counting is middle school level reading that will give your students a base knowledge of demographic trends and related issues.
