​ In World Geography Studies, students examine people, places, and environments at local, regional, national, and international scales from the spatial and ecological perspectives of geography. Students describe the influence of geography on events of the past and present with emphasis on contemporary issues. A significant portion of the course centers around the physical processes that shape patterns in the physical environment; the characteristics of major landforms, climates, and ecosystems and their interrelationships; the political, economic, and social processes that shape cultural patterns of regions; types and patterns of settlement; the distribution and movement of the world population; relationships among people, places, and environments; and the concept of region. Students analyze how location affects economic activities in different economic systems. Students identify the processes that influence political divisions of the planet and analyze how different points of view affect the development of public policies. Students compare how components of culture shape the characteristics of regions and analyze the impact of technology and human modifications on the physical environment. Students use problem-solving and decision-making skills to ask and answer geographic questions.

​​Academic Dishonesty

Group discussions and presentations are a big part of this course. Students are expected to be pro-active both individually and in assigned groups. Students who do not contribute to their groups may not receive credit for the group’s assignment.

​​Group Activity

It is expected students demonstrate good behavior; exhibit diligent work ethic and desire to attend school in which they can reach their maximum learning potential. The SCOC serves to guide student conduct and behavior to ensure a safe, orderly, and inviting environment for students and employees so that students can indeed reach their full potential. A small number of students will not be afforded the opportunity to disrupt the learning environment for the overwhelming number of students who abide by the rules.
