Students will examine, analyze, and interpret different types of maps, climates, landforms, religions, and cultural aspects. We will begin with an introduction of basic terms and maps and move onto different regions of the world. At the end of the course the students will be able to compare and contrast the different geographic elements of each region studied. Georgia Performance Standards: The content will be guided by the Georgia Performance Standards for World Geography. World Geography has 9 different standards that provide the framework for the class. The standards for World Geography may be viewed at www.georgiastandards.org Textbook: World Geography, Arreola, Deal, Peterson, and Sanders, McDougal Littell, 2007 Grading Scale, Assessment and Course Requirements: Students will be assessed in several different methods throughout the year. We will have daily assignments, weekly quizzes, and unit test. We will also complete different types of projects throughout the year. There will be several assessments during the year that will be comprehensive, such as the midterm exams and final exams. Each semester the students will have to complete a performance exam (can not be exempted). Grade Calculation: Final grades will be based on a point count in the 4 divisions listed below. The student’s total earned points in a division will be divided by the total number of possible points for that area. The points for each evaluated task will lead to the following approximate values for the components of the course: Daily/ Quiz 20% Tests: 40% Performance exam: 10% Benchmarks 30% Office Hours and Intervention Times: Monday and Wednesday 2:45-3:30 Tuesday and Thursday 7:00-7:40 Honor Code Policy: All BHS students will strictly adhere to the BHS Honor Code.
