Abstract: Supplementary teaching activities at the junior- and senior-high school level on issues and topics involving population factors are provided. Topics include population growth, demography, graphing, population distribution, and population control. Community and national census factors as well as world population are studied. Students are helped to view themselves as individuals in relation to population groups. Certain activities promote decision making between individual preferences and what would be best for society as a whole. Several activities focus on the woman's role and attitudes toward population stabilization and childbearing. Use of media and community resources is encouraged. Seven of the 54 activities are incomplete because copyrighted materials have been removed from the document. (AV)
