Once all groups have finished constructing their reports, ask them to present their reports to the class, using the whiteboard or chalkboard to list the evidence and reasoning that supports their conclusions.

Finally, ask the class to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each report, and to evaluate the impact of human activities on the environment based on the data presented.

¶ Closure (10 minutes):

Wrap up the lesson by summarizing the key points covered, emphasizing the importance of being able to analyze and evaluate the impact of human activities on the environment as critical thinking skills.

Finally, ask students to reflect on what they have learned and how they can apply this knowledge in the future, both in their personal lives and in the field of geography.

¶ Assessment:

To assess student learning, provide a set of data related to a different geographic region or ecosystem, and ask students to construct an environmental impact report based on their analysis and evaluation of the data.

Alternatively, assign a project in which students must analyze and evaluate the impact of human activities on the environment in a geographic region or ecosystem of their choosing, and construct an environmental impact report using the analyzing and evaluating skills they have developed in class.
