EXAMEN
̶ Monday 4 june, 8u30-11u
̶ Aud. Vlerick (Campus Tweekerken)
̶ Aud. Picard (Campus Tweekerken)
̶ Content of the exam (on 16 points)
̶ 16 multiple choice questions (on 8 points)
̶ abcd
̶ standard setting: To ‘pass’ (reach 4 points on 8) you need
̶ 8 + 2 = 10 questions right
̶ 2 open questions (4 + 4 = 8 points)
̶ insights!
̶ Understand
̶ Don’t learn by heart
̶ It is not a math exam!
OPEN VRAGEN
̶ General
• Respect the available space
• Answer to all questions
• Reason in a clear way, communicate in a clear way: why what is happening
• No math, no derivations: if complex formula is used, I provide it (understand the math)
̶ Specific
• Know your concepts (make a list of concepts for yourself?)
• Example
‒ I give you an indicator, you make reasonings with it
‒ Apply a theory (e.g. S shaped curve, strong/weak sustainability)

(1) HOW ARE WE DOING; CLOUD ON THE HORIZON
Bevolkingsgroei
De grafiek toont de periode van 1700 tot 2100. Tot 1700 was de groei relatief vlak, maar
daarna begint een exponentiële stijging.
o Cijfers: De absolute bevolkingsomvang (groene vlak) schiet omhoog en piekt
naar verwachting rond de jaren 2080 met circa 10,4 miljard mensen. In 2100 zal
dit naar verwachting stabiliseren rond ditzelfde aantal.
o Groeisnelheid: De paarse lijn toont de jaarlijkse groei in procenten. Deze
bereikte een absolute piek rond 1968 op ongeveer 2,1% per jaar, en is inmiddels
structureel aan het dalen.
Economische welvaart
Een tabel vergelijkt de ontwikkeling in het eerste millennium (jaar 0-1000) met het
tweede millennium (jaar 1000-2000). Het contrast is immens.
