  1. The demographic transition is a way to visually show changes in population over time. A population pyramid shows the age-sex structure of a population as it is today and often matches with its demographic transition stage. In this lesson you will learn the stages of the demographic transition, how a population pyramid is made, and try predicting future population pyramids for a country.

  3. Remote tribes today Kenya, much of sub-Sahara Africa Brazil, Mexico US, Sweden Germany? Japan?

  4. Need more practice with the demographic transition? Maybe this video will help. http://education-portal.com/academy/lesson/what-is-demographic-transition-definition-stages.html#lesson

  5. A population pyramid tells the number (or percent) of the population for males and females at various ages. • - Which country is growing more rapidly? How can you tell? • Which country has a higher population of senior citizens? • Which is a developed and which is a developing country?

  6. Is the population increasing, decreasing, or stable? Which demographic stage matches this pyramid?

  9. Use the international database to see past, current, and future population pyramids for any country. Before you click on the link, predict: 2 countries that are rapidly increasing population. _______________________ _____________________ 2 countries that are stable in population. _______________________ _____________________ 1 country that is decreasing in population. _____________________________________________ http://www.census.gov/population/international/data/idb/informationGateway.php
