ESSAY: MIGRATION MOTIVES The migration of people is one of the many trends in world history. In this chapter, you read about some of the reasons that people migrated during the period from 1750 to 1914. But have you thought about what motivates people to migrate today? For this project, you will be asked to think about this question as you make comparisons between the factors that caused people to migrate throughout history.

OBJECTIVES
Compare and contrast the reasons why people have migrated to new areas throughout history.
Create a Venn diagram.
Materials List:
Internet, textbook, and other sources of information
template of Venn diagram (provided)
Before You Begin:
A Venn diagram is a graphic organizer that has two circles which overlap in the middle. It allows for information to be organized within the circles and therefore an easy and quick way to view contrasts and comparisons of two related topics.

LET'S REVIEW!
From this project, you will have learned that:

There are similarities and differences in the factors that motivate people to migrate.
