Choropleth mapping in secondary geography : an application for the study of Middle America

Auteur :
SULLIVAN, M. E.

Description :
The basic steps in constructing choropleth maps are followed by a discussion of how such maps might be used in a secondary school lesson using Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean as a case study. The A. argues that the value of making these maps lies as much in the questions they raise as in the patterns they show.―(DWG)
