This workbook teaches population analysis using world population statistics. To complete the four student activity sheets, the students refer to the included "1988 World Population Data Sheet" which lists nations' statistical data that includes population totals, projected population, birth and death rates, fertility levels, and the gross national products in U.S. dollars. The exercises include basic chart reading, mathematical calculations, nation comparisons, and the preparation of a choropleth map. The workbook also contains a glossary, a chart of the nations' geographic areas, two graphs, a world map, and an annotated list of 13 references. (DJC)
