5 Can you think like a Geographer? -use processes/models -use academic vocabulary -make generalizations/predictions

10 Analyze this map with the factors of production in terms of location Land: Why here? Labor: Whose working here and why? Capital: Where do the Forward Linkages come from? Where are the products going? Entrepreneurial Skill: Who’s running these factories? Where do they live.
