SCSA Unit Description

Cultural groups that may have been isolated in the early twentieth century are now linked across an interconnected world in which there is a

‘shrinking’ of time and space. Of particular interest are the ways in which people adapt and respond to these changes.

This is a world in which advances in transport and telecommunications technologies have not only transformed global patterns of production and

consumption but also facilitated the diffusion of ideas and elements of cultures. The unit explains how these advances in transport and

communication technology have lessened the friction of distance and have impacted at a range of local, national and global scales.

This unit focuses on the process of international integration (globalisation) and is based on the reality that we live in an increasingly interconnected world. It provides students with an understanding of the economic and

cultural transformations taking place in the world today, the spatial outcomes of these processes, and their political and social consequences.

The Shrinking World

Global Patterns of ConsumptionInternational Tea Market Expansion Board Limited - Gill MacDonald 1940

Impact on PeoplesNorth Sentinelese – Andaman Islands

SCSA - Learning outcomes

By the end of this unit, students: • understand the nature and causes of international integration and

its spatial, economic, political and social consequences • understand the ways people embrace, adapt to and resist the forces

of international integration• understand and apply key geographical concepts – including place,

space, environment, interconnection, sustainability, scale and change – as part of a geographical inquiry

• think geographically, based on an understanding of the complexities of an increasingly interdependent world

• apply geographical inquiry skills and a range of other geographical skills, including spatial technologies and fieldwork, to investigate the complexity of the integrated world

• evaluate the sustainability of alternative futures, drawing on an understanding of an integrated global society.

Unit 2 Learning Outcomes

• Students can describe globalisation, explain it’s causes and discuss it’s impact. E.g. European Imperialism and Colonialism.

• *Field trip suggestion –Maitland Brown Memorial, Esplanade Park, Fremantle. Tied in to field skills day in Fremantle.

• Cross Curriculum Priority

Unit 2 Learning Outcomes

• Students can explain global interdependence:

- Australia exports minerals to China i.e. Iron Ore

- Australia imports complex manufactured goods i.e. Cars.

• Backward Mapping Idea – Y8 excursion to Roy Hill Mining ROC-ED Centre

• Geography with Science/Engineering puts us in the STEMOSPHERE

Unit 2 Learning Outcomes

• Explain adoption and adaptation of cultural elements and commodities/technologies with reference to specific examples, e.g. McDonalds, and discuss why there may be some resistance.

• Activity suggestion –McDonalds webquestcomparing international menus / products. E.g. Compare and Contrast Australia and India

Unit 2 Learning Outcomes

• Complete a Geographical Inquiry

• Assessment suggestion –Inquiry into Diffusion of Football / Music

• Fieldtrip Suggestion – Optus Stadium Tour

• Y12 backward mapping bonus – a short hop over the river to walk through Claisebrook development in East Perth – Link to Unit 4

Unit 2 Learning Outcomes

• Consider how the three pillars of sustainability (economic, environment and social) can be applied within the context of increased globalisation

• E.g. China reducing pollution levels while US steps away from ‘climate change’ –America First Energy Plan advocates fossil fuels inc. coal

• Weave sustainability into each topic you cover as a key concept

• Sustainability - cross curricular priority

SCSA Unit 2 content Overview of international integration• The application of the concept of sustainability when considering the outcomes

of increased globalisation• The process of international integration, especially as it relates to the

transformations taking place in the spatial distribution of the production and consumption of commodities, goods and services, and the diffusion and adaptation of ideas, meanings and values that continuously transform and renew cultures.

• Advances in transport and telecommunications technologies as a facilitator of international integration, including their role in the expansion of world trade, the emergence of global financial markets, and the dissemination of ideas and elements of culture

• The economic and cultural importance of world cities in the integrated global economy and their emergence as centres of cultural innovation, transmission and integration of new ideas about the plurality of life throughout the world

• The concept of global shifts with the re-emergence of Asia, particularly China and India, as global economic and cultural powers, and the relative economic decline, but sustained cultural authority, of the United States of America and Europe

Top Tips!

• Book field trips early

• Use data sources (Graphs, Chart, Models etc.) throughout this module to maximise source analysis skills growth

• Try to build in Y12 links where possible e.g. ALCOA excursion – Land cover change. Your aim is to prepare the students for Y12. Y11 is the warm up.

• Currently running a 15 week program in order to allow time for Y12 workshops in term 4.

Diffusion, Adoption, Adaptation & Glocalisation

Transport• The concept that improvements in transport technology and infrastructure

have shrunk the world – Space Time Convergence

• Class Activity – Ask students to spend the week attempting to use as many different modes of transport as possible and record their journey times and costs involved. Graph their data and draw conclusions on the best, cheapest and most sustainable modes of transport.

• Excursion suggestion – Leeuwin– 2 hr class room hire

Task! Identify the elements of International Integration (Globalisation) in the following video

Sepultura – Bloody Roots

• The Portuguese word for burial, Sepultura was formed by brothers Max and Igor Cavalera, the sons of an Italian diplomat and a Brazilian model in Belo Horizonte, Brazil.

Adoption

• Heavily influenced by:

- Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Motorhead and Iron Maiden (UK); and

- Slayer, Metallica, Van Halen and Megadeth (USA)

Timbalada

Adaptation• Developed the “Nu” genre of metal in the 1990s by incorporating indigenous

music styles into a previously ‘white’ genre. Most clearly demonstrated in the song, video and lyrics of Roots Bloody Roots.

OLD ‘NU’

Capoeira

• Capoeira developed in Brazil, derived from traditions brought across the Atlantic Ocean by enslaved Africans. It was widely practiced on the plantations as a means of breaking the bonds of slavery.

• The art was officially prohibited by the Brazilian Penal Code. The identification of “the outlaw” with capoeira was so widespread that the word became a synonym for “bum,” “bandit,” and “thief.”

• They moved to marginal places and camouflaged the martial art as a form of dance. – Juan Goncalves-Borrega, Smithsonian Center for

Folklife and Cultural Heritage

Religion – Candomble• Candomblé is a religion based on

African beliefs which is particularly popular in Brazil. It is also practised in other countries, and has as many as two million followers.

• The religion is a mixture of

traditional Yoruba, Fon and Bantu beliefs which originated from different regions in Africa. It has also incorporated some aspects of the Catholic faith over time.• http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/candomble/ataglance/g

lance.shtml

Religion – Catholicism

• Statistics from the Vatican's official publication, Statistical Yearbook of the Church, 2015. Vatican City: Librera Editrice Vaticana, 2017.

• Baptized Catholics:

• 172,222,000

• Baptized Catholics as % of Total Population:

• 84.24%

• Baptisms per Year (Under age 7):

• 1,184,123

• Catholicism was the state religion of Brazil from 16th –19th centuries.

• Brazil remain the world’s largest catholic nation.

Afro-Brazilians – Salvador, Slavery and the Catacombs

Slaves arriving in Salvador, Brazil would be ‘stored’ in the catacombs beneath the city’s Custom House while they waited to be sold at market.

The bloody roots referred to by Sepultura are here laid bare.

Dickies Workwear

1922 – Dickie and Williamson purchase the U.S. Overall Company1930 – US sales top USD 500’0001940’s – Supply uniform to US military during WWII1950s – Texas Oil workers take their favourite workwear to the oilfields of the Middle East2000s – Distribution through over 100 countries globally

Flipped Classroom - Pedagogy

• Issue: the course has a large amount of content and (relatively) little time to teach it

• Suggested Solution: Put note taking out of the classroom

• Form Triads – three students• Use standardised note taking format e.g. Cornell Notes• Triad rotates so that one student covers the relevant content each week

and shares the notes• Benefit 1: This frees up your contact for focussed application of pre-learnt

knowledge which can the be used to answer practice questions and refine exam writing skills.

• Benefit 2: Deep learning comes from application of knowledge, not just being a passive recipient. The classroom is where they come to apply their knowledge.
