Students are required to summarize lecture materials graphically on outline maps of Virginia or on graphs contained in the workbook. These exercises are not graded directly, however, high performance on examinations demands that these exercises be completed. The major goal of this course is that students gain an understanding of the physical and historical processes which have created the present landscapes of Virginia. Three examinations are given during the semester. A comprehensive final examination is given.
All examinations have a mapping component and at least one essay question.
