Standard of Living, Quality of Life

How are we doing?  Are we living the good life?  Here are some quantitative measures to determine how good we have it.

• urbanization
• level of economic activity (primary, secondary, tertiary)
• Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita (PPP)
• school life expectancy
• literacy rate
• life expectancy
• infant mortality
• population % below the poverty line

And here are some countries we will be researching:

• USA
• Brazil
• Germany
• India
• Saudi Arabia
• Canada
• Colombia
• Greece
• China
• Mexico
• Liechtenstein
• Afghanistan
• Kenya
• Japan
• United Kingdom
• Angola
• Egypt

Here is one way to do this assignment.

After completing your research, each group should collaborate on a paragraph that summarizes the quality of life for each country.  Describe what was revealed about each country through your research.
