Please describe the key ideas to be conveyed in this section. Also broken down in details by each idea

Key Idea 1 - What does development mean

Learning objectives

Understanding social and economic status of people - citizens and communities Understanding planned ways of changing the social and economic status, through 'development' Development and 'under development'

Notes for teachers

1. Several factors or variables impact development - we need to analyses these from social, political and economic perspectives. Examples of different countries/states to look at these different variables and how they have impacted development.

2. Narrow view of 'material' progress as development. Simple growth in GDP may not necessarily mean development. Kind of materials produced (cigarettes or super luxury goods for eg may not mean development). Secondly, distribution of the development outcomes is also an important consideration. For eg, a media report discusses a study how in the USA, while GDP has grown, the middle class has lagged behind, specially when compared to other countries in North America or Europe. (This can lead to discussion on next concept of looking at development from multiple perspectives)
