Population change
By the end of the lesson you will be able to:
1. Describe the global population change in the last 200 years.
2. Compare the different levels of population in EMDC and ELDC.
3. Explain how fertility and mortality rates influence population growth.
Introducing PopulationLesson 1
Population change
Where do all the people live?
Lesson 1
Where do most folks live?Why do people live in the most popular countries?
Is this sustainable?
Population change
Global Population
Lesson 1
Work as a pair. You have 5 minutes:
1. Which country has the highest population?
2. Which country has the highest population in proportion to its size?
3. Which country has the lowest population?
4. Which country do you think has experienced the highest population increase in recent years?
Population change
Global Population GrowthLesson 1
Why so low?
Why so high?
Population change
By the end of the lesson you will be able to:
1. List the reasons that influence population distribution
2. Describe human factors that encourage high populations
3. Describe physical factors that prevent high population density
Why live there?Factors influencing population distribution and density
Lesson 2
and
Population change
What is...Lesson 2
Describes the way in which people are spread out across an area.
The number of people per square kilometre.
Population DENSITY
Population DISTRIBUTION
Population change
Factors influencing population density and distribution
Lesson 2
Areas with high altitude and steep slopes are difficult places on which to
build or grow crops
RELIEF
Areas with high altitude and steep slopes are difficult places on which to
build or grow crops
Low-lying, flat areas are easier to
farm but may be vulnerable to
flooding
Population change
Factors influencing population density and distribution
Lesson 2
RELIEF
Lower temperatures in
northern Britain in winter and
summer mean that living and farming
conditions are more difficult
Population change
Factors influencing population density and distribution
Lesson 2
The sunniest part of the UK is the south
coast of England
Many people choose to retire to places like
Eastbourne and Worthing
CLIMATE
This is the rugged landscape of Dartmoor.It is a granite uplandthe relief, high rainfall and poor soils mean that is unsuitable for any farming except sheep rearing
Population change
Factors influencing population density and distribution
Lesson 2
The presence of coal deposits was a major factor in population distribution in industrial countries from the 19th century onwards
ROCK
TYPE
Together with Shetland and Orkney the Western Isles are the remotest parts of the UK.
Harsh weather as well as distance make them inaccessible

By the end of the lesson you will be able to:
1. Describe urbanisation for MEDC and LEDC2. List different push pull factors3. Compare the increase of urbanisation in MEDCs
and LEDCs
Urban and Rural populationsDescribe and explain the differences between
urban and rural populations.
Lesson 2
Population change
Almost half of the world’s population lives in only 1%
of the total space?
Lesson 2
What are these places and why live there?
Population change
Lesson 2
The increasing percentage of the population living in
urban areas.
