1. AP Human Geography Chapters 11 & 12: Industry and Services Although this includes powerpoint for each day of the chapter, it references assignments and activities not included in the bundle. For the most effective instruction, purchase the Comprehensive Guide to Teaching Human Geography too.

2. Day 1

3. Bellwork-Wednesday 3/13/2019 • What do you want to be when you grow up? • Or something you MIGHT want to be

4. Agenda • Notes: Distribution of Industries Suggested Line of Study: Chapter 11 – Textbook Chapter 6 – Barron’s Key Issue Questions

5. Objective • You will be able to summarize the distribution and differences in industries around the world.

6. TUBI • New Orleans was the first city in the US to get an opera house and the last to get a sewer system.

7. Chapter 11/12: Industry and Services

8. I. Distribution of Industry

9. A. Industrial Regions • Industrial Revolution: a bunch of technological improvements that changed the process of manufacturing • Started in the 1800’s in the UK • Spread through Europe first

10. Video: Crash Course

11. B. Industrial Regions Today • Europe • UK: steel, textiles, hi-tech • Western Europe: Synthetic fibers, pharmaceuticals, coal, iron • Eastern Europe: ship building, minerals, petroleum, coal

12. 2. North America • New England: Cotton, coal • Great Lakes: steel • West Coast: textiles, food, furniture

13. 3. Asia • Japan: exports • East Coast China: cheap labor, exports • Southern Coast South Korea: ship building

14. Discuss • What is it about these regions that encourage industry? • Why there?

15. Geographic Connection • Think/Look back to Chapter 1. • Define Situation • Select one of the regions and apply the concept of Situation.

16. C. Situation Characteristics • Proximity to Input: • Cost of transporting raw materials expensive? Put plant closer to materials than markets • Bulk-reducing industry: inputs weigh more than the final product

17. Minerals • Metallic: • Ferrous = Alloy with Iron • NICKEL, TIN, TITANIUM • Nonferrous = no iron • ALUMINIUM, COPPER, LEAD, LITHIUM

18. Nonmetallic: • building stones, gemstones, nitrogen, calcium, sulfur

19. Discuss • All minerals are just rearrangements of carbon • Why do we value some minerals above others?

20. 2. Proximity to Markets • If it costs more to transport the finished product, put the plant closer to the market • Bulk-gaining industry: makes something that gains volume or weight

21. 3. Transportation • Companies want the cheapest transportation • Trucks: quick and cheap (for short distances) • Trains: take longer, but no stops • Ships: cheap! But slow • Air: Most expensive, but fastest

22. Decide • If you were transporting ______ which would be the best for you? • Laptops • Bananas • Shoes • Books

23. Geographic Connection • Think back to Chapter 1. • Define Site • Write a definition for each in your notes.

24. D. Site Characteristics • Distinctive features of a place • Labor • Labor-Intensive Industry: wages make up a high percentage of expenses • mining

25. 3. Capital • Capital: money available to use • Need to be able to borrow money to start or expand manufacturing

26. 4. Land • Where do you put your factory? • Near cities! • Labor, transportation, markets

27. Summary: • Describe the distribution of industry around the world. • Explain situation can influence an industry, use a specific example.

28. Day 2

29. Bellwork • How does location affect where you place an industry?

30. Agenda: • Notes: Industrial Factors • HW: #1-8

31. Get out KBAT • Cross off: Annexation, Edge City, Gentrification

32. Objective: • You will be able to use Weberian Analysis to describe the sugar industry in writing.

33. TUBI: • It takes the average American 8 hours to do their taxes.

34. I. Factors to Industry

35. A. Least Cost Theory • Alfred Weber (1868-1958) • Best place for manufacturing reduces: • Transport costs (most important) • Labor costs • Agglomeration costs • Agglomeration: clustering of productive activities and people for mutual advantage

36. 3. Weber’s 5 Assumptions • Area is uniform (the same) • Making one thing to send to one known market • Multiple sources of raw materials • Labor available but immobile • Transport uses shortest distance, so costs reflect the weight/distance

37. 4. Weber’s Location Triangle • Shows the break-of-bulk: the place where goods are transferred • Footloose Industry: Industries that are not market or resource oriented

38. 4. Weber Location Triangle SUPPLY 1 FACTORY The location of this depends on the weight of raw materials vs finished product MARKET SUPPLY 2

39. Practice! • Draw a Weber Triangle for: • Lumber • Coca Cola Bottling • Automobile Assembly • Copper Production • Baked Goods • Is it bulk gaining or bulk reducing?

40. Video: How It’s Made

41. B. Industrializing Countries • We have our major industrial zones: Anglo- America, Europe, East Asia • Gross Domestic Product (GDP): total value of goods and services produced within a country during a specific time

42. b. Mass Production: production of large amounts of standardized products, often on assembly lines.

43. Summary: • Explain the location of an industry contrasting raw material oriented with market oriented industries. • Define Weber’s Least Cost Theory.

44. Day 3

45. Bellwork • What are some sources of pollution? • How can we reduce pollution?

46. Agenda: • Notes: Industrial Pollution • Pick up notes after tomorrow • HW: #9-16

47. Objective: • You will be able to explain the way pollution and development relate in writing.

48. TUBI: • Fine particles can remain suspended in the air and travel long distances. For example, a puff of exhaust from a diesel truck in Los Angeles can end up over the Grand Canyon.

49. I. Industrial Pollution

50. Discuss • What do you know about pollution from Environmental Science?
