Ideas in Geography

DO NOT USE TRANSITION WORDS

Short Paper F: Topic:  Ideas in Geography: Exploring ideas in other contexts (2 pages) Dont forget your maps!

This assignment is (supposed to be) on the lighter side.

 The basic challenge is to choose one of these (you may end up watching more than one) and decide what ideas in Geography (as presented in the text) are represented/are relevant to the film you choose to write about.

Below is a selection of documentaries that I have felt were interesting in some way. Some of them might be quirky and may feel unfinished or unfocussed, others are very earnest. (they are presented in no particular order) 

1. Feel free to be critical in the sense that you are asking- what is the purpose of this documentary? – what is the point of view?
2.  BE SURE YOU REFER TO IDEAS FROM THE COURSE TEXT. 
3. 2 MAPS REQUIRED.
4. Develop a question or idea that relates to something that is covered/mentioned in the textbook.

Example:

For Ladies First

Describe the issues around education of girls and women as presented in this film. How does sport, and this sport in particular, offer opportunities for some individuals.
