Test day on population and settlement

Today we took the test on population and settlement. This test in my opinion was a little more challenging for me but its still not the toughest thing obviously. There was one question where I didn't know if the answer was crude birth rate, or rate of natural increase. I think that I second guessed myself so many times, that I probably got it wrong. I'm pretty sure my answer was RNI or rate of natural increase.
Also another question that I second guessed was if chad was the lowest life expectancy which is the answer that I chose. That question is another question that I probably got wrong because I didn't feel the most comfortable on it and I just sat there after answering all the other questions and just stared at it. Trying to decided if I should chose it or not.
But overall I think I did pretty well on the test today as I felt comfortable on most of the test besides a couple of questions I think that I got an 85 or higher.
I studied the last three nights for about 30 minutes each night which isn't to much, but it definitely helped me feel comfortable and memorize the information a little bit more than I had memorized before I had studied.

My review on the presentation

Yesterday we did the presentation on our given countries. My group which consisted of Chris, Hannah, Banks, Tom, and myself; we had the Country Kenya. Kenya as I said and as Hannah said, they are a developing African-American nation with a very high unemployment rate of 40 percent. I did the slide on energy and electricity access which was one of the factors of Kenya issues and problems. They had no one working in their factories and that was why they weren't producing any crude oil, and that was part of the reason of why their unemployment rate was very high. Over 13 million people within the population didn't have access to electricity. I think that I personally did a good job on the presentation, I gave a lot of information on my topic, and I clearly stated the energy problem which was the main part of the rubric So I would give myself a 97-100 because I did everything like giving information and stating the problem right, but I had to look at my note card a couple times ...

Gun Germs and Steel

During class we got our exam grades back and I got an 88 percent which isn't bad. But then after we got our exams and during while other people are getting theirs's back we started to look up what Gun, Germs, and Steel was. It is a story that was written by Jared Diamond who is a professor at UCLA. He is a training biologist and specialized in human physiology. But that wasn't busy enough so he decided to take a full passion in the study of birds. He liked to go to Papa New Guinea to look at the birds, and he went there so often that he learned the different languages that are spoken on that island by the low amount of people that speak them.  In the story Gun, Germs, and Steel Jared Diamond explains why some more materialized and geographically lucky continents are better at invading and conquering other continents. Some of these geographically lucky features are land, immunity to germs, food production, and the domestication of animals. Eurasia is a Geographically lu...

Today in class we were going over most of the information like: -Life Expectancy                       -Push Forces -Total Fertility Rate                   -Pull Forces -Net Migration Rate                  -Immigration -Crude Birth Rate                      -Emigration -Crude Death Rate                     -The Table Of Populations Over The Years Life expectancy is the average number of years a group of people are expected to live who were born in the same year. Monaco has the highest life expectancy out of any country, and Chad has the lowest life expectancy. When it comes to life expectancy, women tend to have a higher expectancy than men do in pretty much every country. Total Fertility rate is the average number of children born ...
