Description
 In the study of world geography, students utilize  physical and cultural perspectives to examine people, places and environment at local, national and international levels. Students describe the influence of geography and the events of the past and present. A significant portion of the course centers around the physical processes that shape patterns of the physical environment; the characteristics of major land
forms, climates and ecosystems; the political, economic and social processes that shape cultural patterns of regions; types and patterns of settlements; the distribution and movement of world population; relationships among people, places and environment; and the concept of religion. There is also an emphasis on mapping skills.
