Introduction to year 9.

This educational introduction for Year 9 focuses on the concept of development, prompting students to reflect on their understanding of the term. Key terms include MEDC (More Economically Developed Countries) and LEDC (Less Economically Developed Countries), with examples from around the world, such as Tokyo (MEDC) and Dhaka (LEDC). Students will analyze photographs to determine the development status of various cities, providing evidence for their classifications. The task encourages critical thinking as students explore and redefine what development means in a global context.
