Going Over CIA Assignment and Next Test

Today we didn't really take any notes, we just went over the facts we found on the Worldbook and what the test is going to be like. I didn't share any of my facts though because they weren't as interesting as everyone else's. Maybe I didn't look hard enough or I didn't know what I was looking at, but it was cool and I wish I had better facts. There was one fact that someone had about Brazil that made me think. He said that Brazil has a high birth rate, a low death rate, and a negative migration rate, but their population is still growing. He was confused on how their population is growing but I think it is because of their birth rate being higher than their death rate even though their migration rate is falling. Their population growth rate is 0.73, which makes sense because it is still growing because of the births, but it isn't growing that fast, which is why it is under 1. We also went over what the test was going to look like. The first portion of the test is about going on the CIA website and searching for certain answers. There are 15 questions and we have 15 minutes to find them. It seemed pretty easy and as long as my computer works and I can read, I will be good. The next part is definitions and filling in the blanks for stuff like, rate of natural increase, crude birth rate, crude death rate, net migration rate, etc. I know all of those so I will be good. The last portion of the test was population pyramids, which we haven't learned yet, but they seem cool and easy. I think the test will be good and I am actually really enjoying this unit and even though I am not into the CIA, I do find the website interesting.
