In this lesson, students will read the three-part,
gif animation movies about the Major Constraints LDC's
face in moving forward with their economic growth:
Lesson on Less Developed Countries (LDC's):
Less Developed Countries (Major Constraints, Part I)
Less Developed Countries (Major Constraints, Part II)
Less Developed Countries (Major Constraints, Part III)
After watching the movies above, students should do research on a country of their choice or the choice of the instructor.  You can find information about all the countries of the world at the following sites:
The World Factbook
Infoplease, Countries of the World
Geographic.org, Countries of the World
Using PowerPoint, students should prepare a 5-minute presentation describing the Major Constraints of the country they are researching.  Breaking students up into pairs may be helpful.
