Imagine an important academic publisher has hired you to create a study guide for a documentary program. The program will be used in university classes to highlight social and environmental topics related to the study Canadian Geography. The purpose of the study guide is to draw the attention of students to important geographic concepts illustrated in the program, and to provide useful background information for students on these geographic concepts. The study guide will also include some discussion questions for use in classroom discussions.
For this assignment you may choose ONE of the following documentaries:
1. Battle for the Arctic (43 Minutes. Available through the CBC ?Doc Zone? website)
2. To The Last Drop (47 Minutes. Available through Aljazeera.com)
You may also choose this audio-documentary:
3. CBC?s The Bottom Line with David Suzuki: Episode 1 (Parts A&B). (48 Minutes. Available for free via iTunes).
The documentaries contain multiple parts, be sure to watch/listen to all parts!
Complete the following steps to create your study guide.
Part 1: Introduction
The introduction to the study guide should briefly introduce the main argument and issues discussed in the film. Your introduction should address the following questions.
1. Who made the documentary? When was it made?
2. What is the main argument or theme presented in the documentary?
?

Part 2: Study Guide Body
5. Identify THREE geographic concepts or key terms illustrated in the documentary you have chosen. Provide a definition of these concepts, and explain why these concepts are important for understanding the main message of the documentary, and for the study of Canadian geography.
For example, all documentaries touch on the topic of ?Aboriginal rights?. What would a student need to know about ?Aboriginal rights? to understand the documentary?
