You are going to create a presentation to demonstrate your understanding of the spatial distribution of settlements in Northland, Aotearoa New Zealand.
You will:
- describe where settlements of people are located
- explain why they are there
- analyse the significance of impacts of settlements on place.
Use the following structure to guide your presentation. Remember to use relevant evidence and geographic terminology, to develop your explanation throughout your presentation.
- Begin by describing the spatial distribution of settlements in Northland, Aotearoa New Zealand, and factors or processes, or a combination of both, that contribute to the spatial distribution. You could include an annotated diagram, map, or another type of visual to help you with your description.
- Examine different factors or processes, or a combination of both, that have contributed to the spatial distribution of settlements in Northland. Explain how they have contributed to the spatial distribution. You might need to consider factors or processes from different time periods.
- In your analysis of the spatial distribution of settlements in Northland, show understanding of different impacts settlements have on places. Begin by describing the impacts themselves. Then explain how settlements in Northland have impacts on different places. Determine the significance of the impacts and make judgements about their significance. You might like to consider positive, negative, social, and political impacts.
