Once per semester, each student will prepare a recent news article relevant in terms of political geography and send it out the the class together with questions and related maps. Student preparing the newsletter will bring one or two related maps to the class to be shown from the projector. At the beginning of the class, the article will be discussed with special emphasis on political geography.
