HGA Taking a Trip Through the Regions Lani Hayashi Grade Level: 4 March 2001 (rev.) PURPOSE: When you talk about the "vast open ranges," where are you talking about? When you see a cactus growing in Louisiana, does a puzzled look come upon your face? When you share pictures of red brick structures with a friend, do they have a clue as to where you were on vacation? With all of the advances being made in this world, we can bring ourselves closer to places we never even dreamed of. But do we really know where these places are? Is the mention of "New York," just a word or is it a place in your mind that you can see? Before taking a trip, people research an area or place to know what to pack or to know where they may want to visit. The purpose is for students to have a visual image in their minds about different places and to have enough knowledge about these places or regions to build their experiences. So many times, students research on places or know about places or heard about places that they have never seen and I would like the students to understand where people are talking about, on a mental map and through physical features or man-made features. FOCUS QUESTIONS: What are the physical and man-made features of a region?

Geography 2253: World Regional Geography Time offered: Fall Semester M W F 9:30-10:20 A.M. Class Resources Link to textbook website Course Description: The primary objective of this course is to familiarize you with the diversity of people and places in the world. In addition, you will learn the locations of some basic places and features so that you will have a better understanding of world events and how they are interrelated. As a holistic discipline, geography is concerned with the distributions of all sorts of phenomena, both human and physical, and with the interactions between and among those phenomena. The most significant phenomena that this course studies is the culture region, which is defined in almost as many ways as there are geographers. Virtually all the definitions, however, center upon the differences in how people live and interact with one another in place, and how these different styles of living impact the landscape. While such knowledge of the world is important in and of itself, it also has a more practical use. As telecommunications advances have accelerated this century, our planet is becoming more connected and interrelated than ever before. In the near future, knowing the customs of Chinese society, for example, could be an important job skill that you might need when your company sends you to manage its new office in Beijing. Similarly, another devastating earthquake in Japan could affect your life in numerous ways, including your job, the interest rate you get for a loan, or the next technological improvement for your home computer. Understanding these linkages and anticipating their outcomes will make you a more competitive member of the global workforce and community.
