Purpose
  • In this activity you will
  • Compare the population make-up of a developed
    country and an underdeveloped country in 2011
  • Look at population predictions for both countries
    for the year 2030
  • Find a technological advancement that could
    change the predicted population pyramid of the
    underdeveloped country

4
Directions Requirements
  • Go tohttp//www.census.gov/population/internatio
    nal/
  • Click on International Data Base
  • Research a developed country and an
    underdeveloped country
  • Prepare a PowerPoint presentation with the
    following information

5
Directions Requirements
  • Your presentation should have 7 slides
  • Title
  • Current comparison of the two countries
  • Comparison of developed 2011 to 2030
  • Comparison of underdeveloped 2011 to 2030
  • Three factors that explain the shape of the
    underdeveloped country's pyramid
  • Describe a technological advancement that might
    change the future shape of the underdeveloped
    country's pyramid
  • Works cited

Slide 1
8
United States vs. Angola 2011
  • Compare the shape of the two population
    pyramids.
  • Why are they different?
  • Go to the website and look at country summary
    for each of your countries for info like
    population size, life expectancy, and infant
    mortality

Slide 2
9
United States 2011 vs. 2030
  • Cut and paste the population pyramids for
    2011 and 2030 for developed country.
  • Compare/contrast these two pyramids.
  • For example
  • Total population
  • Life expectancy
  • Infant mortality

Slide 3
10
Angola 2011 vs. 2030
  • Cut and paste the pyramids for 2011 and
    2030 for underdeveloped country.
  • Compare/contrast these pyramids.
  • For example
  • Total population
  • Life expectancy
  • Infant Mortality

Slide 4
11
Three Factors Affecting Angolas Population
  • Next, do a database search of your underdeveloped
    country and find three factors that might explain
    why they have a short life expectancy or high
    infant mortality.
  • For Example
  • Annual income per capita
  • Agricultural resources
  • Exports
  • Per capita medical expenses
  • A good site to use is NationMaster.com

Slide 5
12
Can technology change the population pyramid?
  • Research and explain how a technological
    advancement could change the population pyramid
    of your underdeveloped country
  • For Example
  • What technology could decrease infant mortality?
  • How would it impact the population by 2030?
  • Slide 6
