Globalisation and Development

Start with the key terms

The Globalisation and Development page brings together flashcards and mind maps made by GoConqr users. Start with the Definitions flashcards to practice terms for industry sectors and household wealth. The cards ask what primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary mean, alongside questions about different descriptions of wealth.

Next, open the Globalisation flashcards. They ask about the distribution of wealth, the meaning of development and how countries are described in relation to development. These questions give you a way to practice the vocabulary before moving on to the maps.

Connect questions and maps

The Globalisation mind map introduces the Clark-Fisher model of economic development and includes examples of work in the primary sector. Look at the map after using the definitions deck, then return to the cards and explain the sector terms in your own words.

There are no quizzes on this page. Instead, use questions from the flashcards to check what you remember, and return to a mind map when you want to see related ideas together. The Development flashcards ask about measures such as literacy rate and life expectancy, as well as trade and investment terms.

Explore the unit

Globalisation and Development is a section of Development and the Changing Economic World in Geography. The resources on this page connect terms for industry and wealth with questions about how development is measured. The Development and Globalisation flashcards add questions about sustainability and environmental objectives.

The Geography mind map lists human factors affecting development, including corruption, poor management and income inequality. Compare those factors with the questions in the flashcards to see how the resources approach development from different angles. Explore a map alongside a deck that interests you.
