Transformational Graphing in the Real World: Bacteria – Growth or Decay?
Grow—not decay—your knowledge of exponential functions. Young mathematicians graph exponential functions and explore how transformations affect the graphs. They decide whether the functions represent growth or decay in the context of...
Curated OER
Differential Equations and Population Growth
Students determine the size of the population at a given time. They calculate the time at which the population will be a given number. They observe how the population grows at the rate that is directly proportional to the number of...

Filling Up Florida
Students study factors controlling Florida's population growth and related environmental impacts. They research natural community types and construct maps (including a large-sized map of Florida) to be used for a simulation activity.
Curated OER
Green Spaces
Students map the green spaces around their school and predict the impact of population growth on green spaces in their region.
Curated OER
Population Biology
In this population worksheet, students will use a table with information about the birth rates and death rates from different countries around the world to complete 4 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Population Pyramid
Students learn about demographic population pyramids. They then design and fictitious nation and draw its population pyramid.

The World Population: Logistic Model
Young scholars explore the various uses of the logistic function. Students use the internet to collect world population data and find a logistic model for their data and use their chosen model to predict future populations.
Curated OER
Population and Air Pollution
Students conduct Internet research to compare the impact of increasing populations and how it affects air pollution in both, the USA and Russia. Students present their finding in a creative manner by developing brochures, bumper...
Curated OER
The Human Population
In this human population instructional activity, students are given data about the size of the human population from the 1800s to 1999. They plot the data and answer critical thinking questions about the changes in human population.
Curated OER
Population Models and Qualitative Analysis, Part 2
In this population model worksheet, students explore models of population growth using the Gompertz growth model and the exponential growth model. They sketch a graph of the slope function and determine possible solutions over time....
Curated OER
Population Dynamics (Lesson 2)
Learners discuss the importance of population growth rates. They examine mortality and survival curves and participate in an experiment. They record their observations and discuss.
