Human Geography
Our goal is for students to use a spatial perspective, the five themes of geography (location, place, human-environment interaction, movement & regions), and concepts (scale, change, pattern/association, and interconnections) to study population and the human systems of politics, economics, and culture (including religion & language). We will also focus on digital forensics and identifying bias.
This will produce students who think of themselves as global citizens with a three-dimensional view of the diverse societies of the world. To put simply, students will leave this class being able to think more critically in a world that is bombarding them with information.
