PQE Revision

The Q in PQE stands for Quantify. What does this mean?

• Give specific information about distribution pattern - use map information such as numbers or location points as evidence

• Give information about distribution patterns that do not match the general or specific descriptions of distribution patterns

• Give a general description of the distribution pattern of the map

Select 2 general pattern descriptions.....

• The interior of Australia is sparsely populated

• There is dense population clusters along the coastline of Australia

• There is a random distribution of people across Australia

• There is a uniform population distribution across Australia

Select the 2 exceptions....

• There is a major city (Perth) found on the opposite side of Australia to the other major cities

• There are medium sized cities found in the middle of Australia (not along the coastline)

• Australia's population is located in the south east coastal regions

• The interior of Australia is sparsely populated

The E in PQE stands for Exceptions. What does this mean?

• Give specific information about distribution pattern - use map information such as numbers or location points as evidence

• Give information about distribution patterns that do not match the general or specific descriptions of distribution patterns

• Give a general description of the distribution pattern of the map

The P in PQE stands for Patterns. What does this mean?

• Give specific information about distribution pattern - use map information such as numbers or location points as evidence
