Description

In this lesson, from AskAsia, students learn to define the geographic concept of "region." Student definitions should include the idea that regions are human constructs based on the area's common geographical characteristics (including physical, historical, and cultural geography). Focusing on the example of Central Asia, this lesson helps students learn that the concept of region helps people to organize and make sense of the world.
