Students import UNEP World population data/projections from either the World Population Prospects: The 2002 Revision Population Database - UN Population Division or a text file. They graph this data by itself, and then along with...

Students learn about demographic population pyramids. They then design and fictitious nation and draw its population pyramid.

High schoolers are introduced to some of the fundamental questions about the connections among population, resources and energy use, and environmental impacts. They explore population growth, interpret a line graph and calculate their...

Pupils explore an exponential relationship and how it relates to human population growth and the current global population crisis. They graph both exponential and linear information.

Students explore an exponential relationship and how it relates to human population growth and the current global population crisis.

Did you know that the population is expected to grow to 11 billion by 2100? The resource serves final installment in a six-part series on the global population and its effects. Scholars interpret data from the United Nations about the...

In this population activity, students will compare two graphs; one graph representing steady rate of growth and the other one showing exponential growth. Students will use these graphs to complete 3 short answer questions.

Students complete a unit on the effects of pollution on our water supply. They create a graph to examine the density of earth's land surface, round the population to the nearest hundred million place, participate in a...

Students examine the world population data using MyWorld GIS software and compare and contrast the population characteristics of countries around the world. Students summarize their findings in a report.

Students watch a video on exponential growth and discuss the different graphs. In this calculus instructional activity, students analyze graphs using examples from the fish population, human population and investments. They discuss...

Young scholars investigate the biodiversity of living things and how they are interdependent upon each other. They conduct research using a variety of resources. Specifically students create a graph to show how a population can grow in...

Students read "Geographical Mobility: 1995-2000." They examine the maps in the handouts and compare them with maps from an atlas. In the second part of this instructional activity, students read "In Harm's Way." They receive three more...

Tenth graders analyze the growth rate of different population. In this biology experiment, 10th graders identify the biotic and abiotic factors that limit population size. They create a poster to show their findings in class.

Students examine the population among the interstates in South Carolina. Using the internet, they identify the counties and roads and compare it with their own drawing.

Students study and analyze data collected on the relationship between the snowshoe hare and lynx in Canada over a 28 year period and create a graph. Students also write a response to a proposal to reduce the lynx population.

Students assess the factors affecting animal populations. Working in groups they define specific vocabulary terms and complete several activities from "Project Wild."
