URBAN ENVIRONMENTAL GEOGRAPHY – HW04 – Location Location Location

PART 1 – Complete lab assignment Chapter 1 – Encounter Geosystems.

Completed = 10

Completed enough Yes Not enough

Reminder… labs are a way to learn. Make mistakes. Figure things out. If you’ve pretty well finished it… great… full credit. If entire sections are not completed… wait a week and turn it in later. Labs are for learning. Full credit for completion… completion means you learned… completion means about 90% done. Don’t get hung up on a single difficult question… come to class and ask a classmate. The objective is to learn by doing. Think.
