Lecture Notes Outline
Taking efficient notes can be a big challenge for many students, especially when working from a Powerpoint lecture. This outline gives students a means to take notes that guides them toward important concepts and avoids the pitfalls of writing word-for-word or simply not taking notes at all. The outline is written as a series of questions, fill-in-the-blanks, or diagrams. This outline is based on the Powerpoint lecture written specifically for this unit.
Essential concepts: Food and agriculture, plant agriculture, Dust Bowl, wind erosion, water erosion, soil horizons, famine, undernutrition, malnutrition, Green Revolution, irrigation, fertilizers, pesticides, organic agriculture, genetically modified organisms.
