Ensure you research your settlement well. Use all you have learnt about settlements in class and apply this knowledge to your task. You may refer to your textbook and the internet. Compile your research according to given quiz questions.

The project consists of FOUR sections:

1. Do research on the settlement in South Africa that you have chosen.

2. Place all answers in a document or write them down on a piece of paper.

3. Complete the given 003 '' quiz '' in the SBA COURSE by filling in the answers underneath each question.

4. Complete the '' file uploads '' in your given 003 '' quiz '' by uploading a sketch map of the settlement you have chosen, a google maps foto and a land use picture of your chosen settlement.

You need to find a settlement within South Africa that you can study. You will need to do research and find photos of your settlement, or draw different sections of it. You may use pictures from the newspaper. Remember you will be required to upload these photos in the quiz.

In the quiz, you will need to provide reasons why the settlement is located where it is. You will need to find out if the population has increased or decreased in this settlement and provide reasons why you think this has happened.

You will have to identify one social or environmental issue affecting this settlement and discuss it in detail. This could be either positive or negative. It could be a recycling scheme in the community, a drug issue or it may be a pollution problem.

You will need to create a sketch map of your chosen settlement, and use it to identify different land uses.

Remember if you do research on the internet, you may not copy and paste directly from the internet any material. It is known as plagiarism and so you will get zero. If you make some notes and you use some pictures then you need to acknowledge it (that is to let everyone know you have used their information).

This is how you do that:

You copy the URL off the internet site and paste the information below the photograph or if it is information at the end of the task you have a heading called references and you past it in there.

The below information will be completed in the 003 quiz in the SBA course after your research is complete and you have all of the answers to your questions.
