What's Where? Descriptive spatial section Include a relevant figure (as per the assigned theme) Include a properly labelled map (modified APA format) All features of the Earth's surface have a spatial

distribution. For the feature/concept, describe the: • Absolute and/or relative location; Site (specific details about the feature/concept) and situation (relationship to other features/concepts); • accessibility: connectivity. Why There? Analytical section Analyze the processes acting on the feature/concept. Analyze the interrelationships that affect the feature/concept. Why Care? Implicational section Discuss the importance of the feature/concept. Discuss the relevance of the feature/concept at a particular scale (or more than one scale). What is the action/reaction? • Are there implications for people? • Are there implications for the environment?/nMap As this is a geography class, a map is required to identify the location of the landform being discussed. The map should come from a credible source and show the location that the hazard occurred. The map is called a figure and should be labelled as a "Figure" (ie. Figure 2) and include a descriptive caption that includes what the map is depicting and the map credit. Definitions It is important to demonstrate your understanding of the terms (landform, geomorphology, etc.) as this is what you are writing about using a geographic lens. If you misinterpret what a landform is and discuss geomorphology in general terms etc., then your grade will be negatively impacted. This is why understanding and defining critical terms are important for written assignment.s Other items that might be defined would include the landform you are discussing. For example, if a picture of a volcano was used for "Figure 1," the definition of a volcano should be discussed. The definitions need to come from a scholarly source (NOT a genera dictionary or encyclopaedia), be incorporated into the discussion in a meaningful, coherent manner, and and must be written in your own words (paraphrased). Simply adding a list of definitions without incorporating them in a meaningful way into the discussion would negatively impact your grade. Why there? Explain why the landform occurs in that particular location. Discuss the characteristics of the landform and primary (endogenic) and secondary (endogenic/geomorphic) processes. Is this landform unusual/unique? Are there any patterns? See Table 1 below for suggestions. Why Care? Discuss why it matters. What's the relevance? What are the implications (local, regional or global), why is it important? What's changing? This is where you would include something on the significance of the landform. See Table 1 below for suggestions./nWhen you have an understanding of the landform concept, choose a credible online picture or a picture you have taken yourself of a specific landform (landform examples include but are not limited to: pingo, arrete, delta, alluvial fan, beach ridge, glacial erratic, cirque, esker and the list goes on etc.). The picture of the landform will form the basis of your assignment The overall topic is a landform and each student is required to find a picture (credible online or personal picture) of a specific landform and discuss it through a geographic lens using the What is where? Why there? Why care? framework. What is Where? Describe what type of landform is depicted in the figure (i.e. type of landform, name of landform, date, location (site, situation)) and give context (see Table 1 below for details). Lin your figure and discussion back to the definition of a landform. This section may be 1-2 paragraphs in length and should include a "call out" to a credible picture (Figure 1) (landform you have chosen to discuss), a call out to a map (Figure 2), a description of the location and type of landform (spatial scale and temporal scales), as well define significant terms. Figure In this section, you are identifying the landform by referring to a picture obtained from a credible webpage or a picture you have taken yourself. Credible pictures (figures) wi have an author and date of when it was taken and will come from a credible website. Your discussion in this section must focus on What is where? by indicating what the landform is and referring to it in the text by using a callout (ie. As seen in Figure 1). The picture is labelled as a "Figure" (ie. Figure 1) and must be labelled as such and include a descriptive caption (indicate what is the picture showing, date, location, image credit). CONSULT: Sample Assignment Submission. Choose a figure (picture) that is clear, relevant, credible and adds value to your assignment.
