About population notes
GoConqr OriginalWhat the population notes cover
The notes offer different ways into the unit. Demographic Transition Model introduces a model of population change over time. Geography study note covers dependency load and population pyramids, while Migration offers a resource on movement of people.
For case studies, there are notes on population control in Thailand and on population policy in Kenya. Other notes look at the impacts of young and ageing populations.
How to revise with notes
Start with the Demographic Transition Model notes if you want an introduction to change over time. Then read a case study and identify the population issue and policy it describes. Compare it with another case study to practise using examples.
When you want to check recall rather than read, switch to a quiz on the Population unit page. Flashcards there can help you revisit key terms. Choose a set of notes and work through it at your own pace.
