Grab a computer and let’s compare an LEDC to an MEDC development using the HDI

• Log onto the following 3 web sites below:1. HDI web site: http://hdr.undp.org/en/2. HDI Calculator

http://hdr.undp.org/en/statistics/data/calculator/ 3. CIAfactbook: www.ciafactbook.gov With the first web site look and see how we use the

HDI and their categories, then use the second web site to play with data found on countries of your choice, so you understand the calculations.

Now that you have played with this a few times Now that you have played with this a few times here is some data here is some data (you will need the CIA (you will need the CIA

factbook to get LEDC data)factbook to get LEDC data)

Study the data below:
