Great for special needs students. Students write directly on the paper avoiding transference issues. Use when students have been absent. Next to the question numbers there are triangles that teachers may fill in indicating which questions are to be answered. This accommodation will limit the requirements for younger or special needs students. When marking, have checkers put a 'C' for correct and 'X' for wrong in blanks next to the triangles then count the 'C's for total correct. Different classes can take different quizzes based on the questions checked off.
Repeat or do-over quizzes can have different questions. Every quiz has the same 'Look and Feel' - Have students use ID Numbers only.

NOVA Online Teachers Classroom Activity World in the Balance PBS World in the Balance Classroom Activity Objective To calculate how long it takes a country's population to double in size and to investigate factors affecting growth rate. copy of the 'Double Up' student handout ( or ). copy of the 'Calculating Population Growth' student handout ( or ). copy of the 'Growth Rates Worldwide' student handouts ( or ). calculator.
graph paper. access to print and Internet resources. Since 1800, human population has grown from one billion to six billion people.
Over the next half century, that number is projected to rise to nine billion. Tell students that in this activity they will investigate how long it takes the populations of different countries and territories to double.
Before class, refer to the 'Growth Rates Worldwide' student handouts to create a list of six to eight countries for each team. Try to make sure that each team's list includes countries with a range of growth rates and that the class data set represents countries on all of the continents (excluding Antarctica, which has no indigenous population). Choose countries with a growth rate of more than 0.044 to ensure that the rate will double in a reasonable time frame (Norway, with a rate of 0.044, takes 160 years to double; Japan, with a rate of 0.011, takes 630 years). See for some sample doubling rates.
Don't choose countries with negative growth rates as they will never double. Organize the class into teams of four and provide copies of the student handouts and other materials to each team.
Assign each team its set of countries. Define the meaning of growth rate: the increase in a country's population during a period of time expressed as a percentage of the population at the start of that time. For example, if a town had 75 people in 1980 and 100 people in 1981, the growth rate for the year would be 33 percent. Explain to students that they will be using 10-year compounded growth rates to determine when each country's population will double. The 10-year growth rate is based on annual growth rates from 2003 from the U.S. Bureau of Census International Database.
The starting population for each country will be 50 individuals, and for this activity the growth rate will be assumed to be constant. Use the steps on the 'Calculating Population Growth' student handout to demonstrate how to calculate future population sizes using the growth rate data. After teams have doubled the populations of all of their assigned countries, have teams graph their countries' population growths. Have students put the number of years on the x-axis in increments of 10 and the number of individuals on the y-axis in increments of five. Then ask students to draw the best-fit curve. If necessary, help students see that population growth is not a linear function; i.e., it produces a curved graph rather than a straight-line graph. Have teams answer the questions on their student handouts and hold a class discussion about their conclusions.
Create a class histogram on the blackboard, posterboard, or an overhead to compare population doubling for each country. The histogram will need to have an upper time value of the country that takes the longest to double and should have an upper population size value of 150. Ask each team to represent each of its countries with a data point and an abbreviation of the country's name.
Examine the histogram with students. Where do most of the countries in the class data set fall on the histogram? What else do students observe about the histogram? (Remind students that this does not represent all the world's countries.).
Have students brainstorm a list of factors they think might affect growth rate (e.g., birthrate, death rate, access to medical care, nutrition, immigration, education, and income). Ask students to choose the four lowest and the four highest growth rate countries among their data sets or from the larger data table representing all the countries.
Organize the class into teams belonging to two groups: Have one group use print and Internet resources to research some factors that contribute to low growth rates and the possible environmental, social, and economic impacts on the people within those populations; have the other group research factors contributing to high growth rates and the corresponding impacts on people in its populations. Have each team write a two-page report on its findings. Students can find some of this information in the CIA World Factbook, the World Bank Group Data Profile tables, and CountryReports.org at.
Girls Only Ministry Teachers Answer Sheet
To conclude the lesson, discuss with students some of the factors affecting growth rates in the countries they researched. Do students see any commonalities among low-growth rate countries?
Among high-growth rate countries? What are some of the differences between the factors among low-growth rate and high-growth rate countries?. As an extension, have students choose countries with a negative growth rate and calculate the time it takes for a population to decrease to half its original size given an initial population size of 100 individuals. Then have them research reasons for negative growth rates.
Additional Activities Find two social studies-based activities—one on global warming and the other on U.S. Immigration—in our Educational Role Plays at Countries with high growth rates double more quickly than those with low growth rates. High-growth rate countries have higher birthrates and lower deathrates.
Science-teachers Answer Sheet
The greater the difference between birthrate and deathrate, the more quickly the population grows. The following table provides sample results for the amount of time it takes for a population to double. The numbers in parentheses are the calculated values for total population size at that period in time. All numbers are rounded up.
