This document provides information about the AS World Development course. It indicates that the course focuses on development issues and requires keeping up with current events through newspapers. While GCSE Geography is ideal preparation, the main requirements are an interest in the topics and an ability to manage coursework demands. The course is 70% exam-based and 30% coursework consisting of article analyses and essays. It covers two themes - development resources and global citizenship, and poverty and inequality. Past students have achieved a 100% pass rate through diligent study. The course is taught by Mr. Crumbie with assistance on coursework elements.

This document discusses 5 challenges, trends, and issues related to globalization and education. It addresses the view of teaching as a profession in America compared to other countries, the need for a more culturally diverse group of teachers, common core implementation, the length of the school year, and technology integration. For each topic, it provides rationale and how it may affect secondary students, noting potential impacts like lower test scores with unqualified teachers, cultural insensitivity, student failure on new assessments, lack of daily learning over long breaks, and the need for 21st century technology skills.Presentation

This document discusses 5 trends, challenges, and issues related to globalization and education.
1) The view of teaching as a profession is challenged as teachers in other countries are more highly regarded than in America. This impacts student learning when low-quality teachers are in classrooms.
2) America needs a more culturally diverse group of teachers to match its changing demographics. Having mostly white female teachers can negatively impact students.
3) Common Core implementation is an issue as states transition to new standards, and students may struggle with new assessments. Common Core aims to improve America's academics globally.
4) Other countries have longer school years than the US agricultural schedule, potentially putting American students at aUsing media to make a difference

World Development Indicators 2015 provides a compilation of relevant, high-quality, and internationally comparable statistics about global development and the fight against poverty. It is intended to help users of all kinds—policymakers, students, analysts, professors, program managers, and citizens—find and use data related to all aspects of development, including those that help monitor and understand progress toward the two goals.
Six themes are used to organize indicators—world view, people, environment, economy, states and markets, and global links. As in past editions, World view reviews global progress toward the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and provides key indicators related to poverty.
Each of the remaining sections includes an introduction; six stories highlighting specific global, regional or country trends; and a table of the most relevant and popular indicators for that theme, together with a discussion of indicator compilation methodology.World Development Lesson 1

The document discusses inequalities in living standards around the world. It notes that earning £100,000 per year places one in the top 0.12% globally, while earning only £100 per year means over 500 million people live on less. It contrasts life in more economically developed countries (MEDCs) and less economically developed countries (LEDCs), noting that LEDCs often have low-paying jobs, sell raw materials cheaply while buying manufactured goods expensively, high birth/death rates, less access to healthcare and education. Wealth is judged by GNP per capita, with the US and UK as MEDCs and Rwanda and Ethiopia as LEDCs. While LEDCs have less income, some argue they haveLesson1 North South Divide

The document discusses the differences in standards of living between wealthier and poorer countries, using examples from the UK and Africa. It introduces concepts like economic development, Gross National Product (GNP), the Human Development Index (HDI), and Less Economically Developed Countries (LEDCs). Key details about Kenya in 1997 are provided to classify it as an LEDC based on indicators like adult literacy rates, life expectancy, population per doctor, and GNP per capita, which are much lower than corresponding UK statistics from the same time period.Reasons for uneven development
Reasons for uneven developmentYanjie Luo

There are several reasons for uneven development between countries including physical, economic, political, social, and historical factors. Physically, the uneven distribution of natural resources and differences in climate and exposure to natural hazards can influence development. Politically, factors like poor leadership, inefficient governance, and political conflicts can negatively impact development. Historically, colonialism extracted resources from colonies to enrich colonial powers. Economically, the process of cumulative causation can reinforce development in core areas while draining resources from the periphery.World Development Report 2014

The document discusses how pursuing opportunity requires confronting many risks, including job loss, crime, disease, natural disasters, and financial crises. Facing these risks alone can be burdensome, but sharing risks with others through collective action, institutions, families, communities, enterprises, banks, government, and the international community can help overcome obstacles. Effective risk management, including knowledge, protection, insurance, and coping strategies, is a process that can be a powerful tool for development.Sectors of Industry

The document discusses trends in different sectors of industry in the UK. It describes how primary industries involving raw material extraction are declining due to depletion of resources and higher production costs compared to other countries. Secondary industries involving manufacturing are also decreasing because of mechanization, loss of international markets, and less primary products to process. Tertiary industries involving services are growing with more employment in sectors like healthcare. Quaternary industries involving innovation, research, and design are expanding to meet demands for new hi-tech products.The development gap and how it can be measured

There are several ways to measure development levels and the gap between developed and developing countries:
1) GDP and GNP per capita are traditional economic measures but don't capture inequalities within countries.
2) Social indicators like health, education, and housing provide a more holistic view of development.
3) Composite indices that combine economic and social factors, such as the Human Development Index, provide a comprehensive overview of development levels.
4) Other indices measure specific issues like the digital divide, gender inequality, and livability between countries. No single measure can fully capture a country's development status.14 Development Definitions And Measuring Development

There are several ways to measure development including economic, social, and environmental indicators. Economic indicators include GDP, GNP, and PPP but have limitations in capturing how wealth is distributed or environmental/social impacts. Social indices like the HDI and HPI provide a more holistic view by combining factors like education, health, and standard of living. Multiple component indices are useful for comparisons but don't show imbalances in their underlying indicators. An accurate overall assessment requires considering various factors from different perspectives.Human Growth & Development: Developmental Psychology. By Theresa Lowry-Lehnen...

Developmental psychology examines human growth and change across the lifespan, from infancy through late adulthood, exploring topics like cognitive, social, and emotional development through a variety of theoretical perspectives including psychoanalytic, behaviorist, social learning, and cognitive theories. Major debates in the field include the relative influences of nature versus nurture and continuity versus discontinuity of development. The study of developmental psychology is important for understanding human potential and applying that knowledge across various disciplines like education, health care, and public policy.Theories of human development

The document discusses several challenges and issues regarding developing global competency in education. It argues that the most important priority is to clearly define what global competency means. Secondly, it stresses the importance of providing teachers training in how to teach from a global perspective in order to best prepare students. Using curriculum that incorporates a global perspective and real-world examples is also highlighted as a key factor. The document notes trends showing U.S. students lagging behind international peers in math and science and argues this puts Americans at a disadvantage in the global economy. It maintains that teaching students multiple languages would enhance their ability to engage in a global society.toaz.info-geed10043-the-contemporary-world-pr_5a4f65df90d460d409bc333cdcca9c4...

This unit introduces the concept of sociological imagination and defines globalization. It discusses how sociological imagination, as described by C. Wright Mills, allows individuals to understand their problems in the context of wider social structures and relationships. This prevents a narrow, parochial view and helps explain how social issues influence individual experiences. The unit then defines globalization as the expansion and intensification of social relations and consciousness across world-time and world-space. It forms various kinds of connectivity, not just economic activity, through the processes of intensification and expansion. Critically examining events through this lens can help understand how global processes shape contemporary realities.An overview of the assessment tasks for all the six subject areas

The document discusses trends in the UK population including aging, immigration, and regional shifts. Some key points:
- The proportion of over-60s is expected to rise significantly, increasing the dependency ratio and challenging the economy.
- Immigration has helped offset population aging but its future impact is uncertain.
- Younger workers have moved to southern and eastern regions while older residents settle in coastal and rural areas.
- The upcoming decades will see the large "baby boom" generation retire, placing greater burden on a smaller working-age population to support them. Careful planning is needed to address this challenge.World Cities

By 2030, 60% of the global population will live in urban areas, with Asia's urban population rising from 1.4 billion to 2.6 billion. There will be close to 30 megacities with over 10 million people, including Istanbul, Guangzhou, and Bogota. Many cities, especially in developing areas, face problems like sprawling slums, lack of infrastructure, and pollution as populations grow rapidly. Solutions require better planning and more sustainable practices around resource use, transportation, and waste management.Global Groupings

Globalization refers to the increasing economic interdependence between countries through rising trade and financial flows, as well as the spread of technology. Developments in communication and transportation technologies have reduced distances and facilitated globalization over recent decades. This has led to growth in world trade and the rise of large transnational corporations operating globally. While some nations and people have benefited from these changes, globalization has also increased economic inequality between wealthy and poor countries.Climate Change & Causes
Climate Change & Causestotal
Ìý
Climate change occurs over short, medium, and long timescales. Short-term climate change involves global warming over decades, while medium-term changes occurred over thousands of years according to ice core and fossil records. Long-term changes shaped climate over hundreds of thousands to millions of years. Recent climate change has led to 0.5°C warming globally since 1970 due to increased greenhouse gas emissions from human activities like burning fossil fuels. This enhanced greenhouse effect from carbon dioxide and methane emissions is trapping more heat in the atmosphere and causing unprecedented global warming according to temperature and Arctic sea ice records.Global Hazards Patterns
