Grade 11 Geography Field Trip

The grade 11 Geography students went on a field trip to assess the different levels of touristification within the old city.  They collected comparative data in two dissimilar quadrants of the Ta Pae Gate area and Mae Rim Plaza.  This included measurement of ozone levels, pricing structures of consumer goods and the origin of the people in these areas.  They will analyze these data in their IA case studies, which they will complete in August.  

The skills they are developing will assist them in careers they may follow in urban planning, evaluating environmental impact, and seeing the cultural impact of tourism on local populations.
