Social Studies Home This page is maintained by the Social Studies department at Jonas Clarke Middle School Last Updated 9.04 World Geography Geography in grade seven will review and reinforce the geographical concepts and suggested learning outcomes outlines for grades K-6. As such, the course will help students discern the global patterns of physical and cultural characteristics such as earth-sun relationships, atmospheric and oceanic circulation, landforms, climate, population, transportation and communication, economic linkages, cultural diffusion. The primary focus of study is cultural geography which deals with how the activities of different culture groups affect the use, form, and personality of the landscape. It explores a variety of themes including the human use of the habitat and its resources, the human impact on the ecology of the earth, the origin and spread of cultures, environmental perception, the geography of settlement forms, or the study of non-material culture. Regions selected for study will vary, but should include case studies from geographic areas. These studies should be set in their regional context and exemplify important geographic concepts or problems.

Similarly, geographers seek to understand and explain the physical, social, and economic organization of landscapes through studies of land use patterns, cities, cultural frameworks, and linkages between perception and behavior. These patterns and processes which define the character of places and regions are analyzed through mapping, field studies, and computer-assisted methods. These techniques demonstrate the special capacity of geographers to understand territorial relationships and to illustrate the holistic nature of place. The specialty of cartographer, or map-maker, is the most familiar occupation of geographers, but an even larger number are employed as planners, environmental analysts, teachers, and technical specialists in a wide range of business and governmental areas.

    Extractions: Geography is the study of the earth as the home of humanity. Geography provides a broad understanding of the processes that unite people, places and environments. Geographers explore the diverse regions of the contemporary world in pursuit of global understanding. They tie together the study of human spatial organizations and cultural landscapes with an in-depth investigation of the earth’s landforms, climates and vegetation. Their methods range from fieldwork in foreign areas to advanced information technologies like computerized geographic information systems. Geography graduates find rewarding careers in environmental analysis and planning, business, government agencies and education. International Learning Opportunities in Geography The Department of Geography is strongly committed to providing students with an international perspective. Geography 100 Global Geography offers a broad overview of the major countries and regions of the earth. Upper-division courses in Latin America (Geography 333), Europe (Geography 336), Asia (Geography 340) and Africa (Geography 344) offer an opportunity for in-depth study of specific regions. Finally, many other courses (Geography 120 Global Environmental Problems and Geography 360 Geography of the World’s Economics, for example), include a strong international emphasis. In recent years, members of the geography faculty have conducted fieldwork in Asia, South America and Europe.

One notable, yet ancient and misguided example is that of Aristotle's Temperate, Torrid, and Frigid Zones (map) Each category is further divided into sub-categories based on temperature and precipitation. For instance, the U.S. states located along the Gulf of Mexico are designated as "Cfa."

    Extractions: South Africa's geography South Africa occupies the southern tip of Africa, its long coastline stretching more than 2 500km from the desert border with Namibia on the Atlantic coast southwards around the tip of Africa and then north to the border with subtropical Mozambique on the Indian Ocean. The low-lying coastal zone is narrow for much of that distance, soon giving way to a mountainous escarpment that separates it from the high inland plateau. In some places, notably the province of KwaZulu-Natal in the east, a greater distance separates the coast from the escarpment. Although the country is classified as semi-arid, it has considerable variation in climate as well as topography. The great inland Karoo plateau, where rocky hills and mountains rise from sparsely populated scrubland, is very dry, and gets more so as it shades in the north-west towards the Kalahari desert. Extremely hot in summer, it can be icy in winter. In contrast, the eastern coastline is lush and well watered, a stranger to frost. The southern coast, part of which is known as the Garden Route, is rather less tropical but also green, as is the Cape of Good Hope - the latter especially in winter. This south-western corner of the country has a Mediterranean climate, with wet winters and hot, dry summers. Its most famous climatic characteristic is its wind, which blows intermittently virtually all year round, either from the south-east or the north-west.

    Extractions: Geography of Spain World Facts Index Spain Map of Spain Spanish territory comprises nearly five-sixths of the Iberian Peninsula, which the nation shares with Portugal, the micro-state of Andorra, and the British possession of Gibraltar. Spanish territory also includes two sets of islandsthe Balearic Islands (Spanish, Islas Baleares) in the Mediterranean Sea and the Canary Islands (Spanish, Canarias) in the Atlantic Oceanand two city enclaves in North Africa, Ceuta and Melilla. Peninsular Spain, covering an area of 492,503 square kilometers, consists of a central plateau known as the Meseta Central, which is enclosed by high mountains on its north, south, east, and part of its western sides. The area that is predominantly plateau also encompasses several mountain systems that are lower than the peripheral mountains. Although Spain thus has physical characteristics that make it, to some extent, a natural geographic unit, there are also internal geographic features that tend to compartmentalize the country. The topographical characteristics also generate a variety of climatic regimes throughout the country. By far the greatest part of the country, however, experiences a continental climate of hot, dry summers and rather harsh, cold winters. Where these conditions prevail, the soils have eroded, vegetation is sparse, and agriculture is difficult. Irrigation is practiced where possible, but it is difficult because the flow in most streams is seasonally irregular, and the stream beds of larger rivers are frequently much lower than the adjacent terrain.
