Population and Pedagogy: The Geography Classroom after Malthus.
Robbins, Paul
Journal of Geography, v97 n6 p241-52 Nov-Dec 1998
Argues that introductory texts in population geography overlook many important issues and current debates. Suggests that teaching population geography would benefit from reading and discussing Malthus' actual words; examining fertility dynamics and influences on reproductive choice; and considering gender issues. Presents a classroom activity to engage students in these issues. (DSK)
