Welcome!

x Welcome to the first Geography Drill! A take-home geography drill is not really an exam (test), since you will, or at least are allowed to, look up the answer/information in your textbook or map book. A take-home drill is a STUDY GUIDE to help you learn the material. This drill has 200 questions. So, massage your fingers, start your brain, get the Tylenol out, take out two scantron forms -- get ready to start.

x Almost without exceptions many students bum the geography part of the final exam every semester. They bum the test because they don't even "try" to study -- unless you call staring at a map for 2 minutes studying... So, to refresh the knowledge for the strong geography students, and to "force" the weak students to study geography, this part of the course is to make students take knowledge about the real world seriously.

x If you are a strong geography students, this drill will not take very long. For the weak students, well, it may take longer... Use any map book, or use the maps in your textbook, or the textbook CD if you purchased your textbook with a CD, or use the Internet to answer the questions. You cannot print the "test" from the browser window. There are other ways to print it, but it is meant to be taken in front of a computer while you fill the scantron forms, and for some questions you MUST be online to answer the question. (For those questions a printed document is NOT going to help you at all. Save trees and take the test in front of computer screen. You might as well be online and use Internet resources to help you learn.)

x If you are dialing in via modem, the first time you load the drill page it may take some time for all the figures (maps) to load. Be patient. Go out into the kitchen and brew some coffee while you wait.
x

x The scantron forms are due as per the Semester Calendar. x

x xx Are your fingers and brain ready? Do you have enough coffee?


x x This is the first time this particular drill is used.
x If you feel there are any mistakes please let me know. Thanks!


Your Instructor.


Take-Home Geography Drill for Environmental Biology


This is not a test, this is a LEARNING DRILL.

Drill Rule: Weak geography students need to learn this - and you learn this by studying maps. If you are a strong geography student DO NOT HELP ANYONE! All students, weak or strong, must do this drill on their own!


PART 1 -- Introduction




In the mid winter months, the sun never rises and temperatures can easily reach lows of - 50† F in the higher latitudes. In the summer months (further south), 24 hours of sunlight a day melts the seas and topsoil, and is the main cause of icebergs breaking off from the frozen north and floating south...

This is not a test, this is a LEARNING DRILL.

Drill Rule: Weak geography students need to learn this - and you learn this by studying maps. If you are a strong geography student DO NOT HELP ANYONE! All students, weak or strong, must do this drill on their own!


Is it time for another break? Take a break and then let's look at some of these maps again.

x This is the end of Geography Drill 1. Unless you already were an expert on geography before you started the drill, I am sure that you now know much more about the planet we call Earth, compared to what you did before the drill.

x Learning! Ah, doesn't it feel good! It always feels good to have accomplished something like learning and know that knowledge is spreading throughout the brain!

x x x I am sure you feel good, and that you are happy that you paid attention to the drill rule, stated at the beginning of the drill and repeated throughout, and learned everything on your own. You did it on your own, not in a group were usually the strongest student do all the work and the weakest student do nothing -- or students split the work and only learn some of the material. It always feels good to do things on your own, and not helplessly ask other students for help.

x You were strong -- you did it on your own! Excellent! Excellent! Knowledge is power!
x x Because you did it on your own, and did it with care, you are now ready for drill 2 and eventually for the final exam! (If you didn't do it on your own... hmmm!? Remember, last semester some students had a zero (0) on the geography part and couldn't even point out the United States on a world map!)
