Abstract
ABSTRACT
Cartogram is a kind of maps; however, this map includes the transformation in size, shape of territories or distance of territories, which is different from traditional maps. Today, cartogram has not been used widely in Vietnam. However, with the rapid spread of globalization, there is a considerable need of employing new technology in carrying out research as well as in the teaching innovation. Based on establishing contiguous cartograms in population education subjects, this article presents advantages and disadvantages between cartogram and other methods in traditional maps and introduces a new way of applying contiguous cartogram to researching and teaching geography in general.
