Geography - Te Mātai Matawhenua

Level 2 Geography students will further develop an understanding of both physical geography and human geography. Aspects such as social issues, environmental issues, patterns, contributing factors and solutions will be studied as part of understanding the world we live in. Topics include investigating an urban pattern, e.g. homicide and gangs in Chicago, geographic research, a global issue – HIV/AIDs, geographic skills such as mapping and graphing, and the differences in development or geographic understanding of a large natural environment.
