Description: In well-written paragraphs, with complete citations, please discuss two geographic concepts we covered this week that you found most interesting, difficult, surprising, or otherwise noteworthy. Use personal experience, information from other courses, maps and other such information to help you provide your understanding of the concepts. Be sure to use two terms from the vocabulary lists at the beginning of each chapter (boldfaced in the text) in your discussion to show your knowledge of geography, and discuss them in your assessment. Please boldface the terms so they show clearly as content focal points in your work. You may use graphics as we practiced in last week’s “Extra Credit” forum to help illustrate your points. If you do, please use only one or two items at most for these short assignments as more can overshadow your written contributions. Be sure to cite the text (for terms and concepts reference) and any source of graphics.
