Geography Spotlight: Central Asia, Russia, the Black Sea Region, and the Arctic
Description:
Geography spotlight is a series of virtual seminars facilitated by a college professor of geography and history. Through live, online presentations and rich discussions, teens will examine the globe, region-by-region, to gain an understanding of each corner of the world. Geography is much more than just political boundaries, bodies of water, and land forms! Physical geography will be reviewed, but the seminar will also take students on a tour of ethnic groups, languages, religions, population trends, migrations, trade, economy, agriculture, natural resources, cultural highlights, and the history that shaped the region. The group will review today's news to understand headlines and hot spots in the region and how happenings there impact the rest of the world.
The third seminar is an 8-week look at Central Asia, Russia, the Black Sea, and the Arctic. Watch for future seminars to be scheduled on Southwest Asia, South Asia, Europe, the Middle East and North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, South America and Central America, US and Canada, and Pacific/Antarctica/Australia. 12.10.12.06
