environment did it happen? How was the event related to events in other places? What resources and technologies did people have? How did they move from place to place? What environmental constraints did they face? Any interpretation of human events and conditions that ignores the geographic context is incomplete and unrealistic. In the next century, humans will face many complex and controversial issues concerning the development needs of a rapidly growing human population and the Earth’s ability to sustain that

STANDARD 5: Students understand the effects <span class="highlight">of</span> interactions between <span class="highlight">human</span> <span class="highlight">and</span> physical systems <span class="highlight">and</span> the changes in meaning, use, distribution, <span class="highlight">and</span> importance <span class="highlight">of</span> resources. RATIONALE <span class="highlight">Human</span> use <span class="highlight">of</span> resources can have both positive <span class="highlight">and</span> negative effects. Increasingly, people are called upon to solve complex problems resulting <span class="highlight">from</span> the interaction <span class="highlight">of</span> <span class="highlight">human</span> <span class="highlight">and</span> physical systems. Physical systems offer opportunities <span class="highlight">and</span> constraints <span class="highlight">for</span> <span class="highlight">human</span> activity. Humans control <span class="highlight">and</span> use the output <span class="highlight">of</span> physical systems

Geographic Information System (GIS) - <span class="highlight">a</span> geographic database that contains information about the distribution <span class="highlight">of</span> physical <span class="highlight">and</span> <span class="highlight">human</span> characteristics <span class="highlight">of</span> places or areas. In order to test hypotheses, maps <span class="highlight">of</span> one characteristic or combination can be produced <span class="highlight">from</span> the database to analyze the data relationships. Geographic model - an idealized, simplified representation that seeks to portray or explain <span class="highlight">a</span> particular geographic reality. Geographic tool - <span class="highlight">a</span> device used to compile, organize, manipulate, store, report, or
