Describe and explain the geography of the region bearing in mind five themes that are often used to define geography. These are: 1) location, 2) place (including scale aspects), 3) movement (including time elements), 4) human- environment interactions, and 5) regions (or sub-regions). An equal depth of analysis for each theme might not be applicable for all regions assigned. However, some consideration of all themes should be present in the assignment.
Research for this assignment is left up to the student but it is expected that a variety of book, periodical, map, atlas and, most likely, internet resources be brought to bear.
Please note that this is to be a geography and not a travelogue. The goal is to be accurate and factual. Be mindful of potential biases in the sources from which you draw your information – these are rife, especially online. Be critical.
It is expected that the final product would take an essay form and be properly referenced for all sources of information.
Maps, figures or tables are likely essential to your presentation, but they must be germane and captioned (cut and pasted versions of such are acceptable if neatly presented and appropriate credit is given to the source). Citation of the sources of information presented MUST be comprehensive — that is, within the body of the paper, where the information is used.
The region is SIMPSON DESERT.
