Download or read book Teaching and Learning Geography written by Daniella Tilbury and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-06-30 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a clear overview of current thinking on the teaching and learning of geography. It is an ideal companion to all students beginning a career in teaching the subject in secondary schools.The chapters are written by experienced teacher educators and bridge both theory and practice. The writers focus on the continuities, whilst setting them in the context of the changing curriculum.The book is divided into four parts. Part One examines the historical context of geography teaching. Part Two looks at issues of course planning, design, syllabuses and programmes of study. Underlying this section is the assumption that geography should not be considered in isolation from other subjects, but rather as part of a whole curriculum. Part Three concentrates on teaching and learning, and includes chapters on the use of maps, field work, IT and first hand experience within a community. The final section covers the issues associated with assessment, across the whole school age range.
Download or read book The Making of Geography as a Secondary School Subject written by John Mortimer and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-06-02 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No work has ever been produced previously that shows how historically geography has been constructed as a subject for the senior years of secondary schooling in Western Australia from 1917 to 1997. In doing so, this book contributes to the existing corpus of international research on the history of curriculum and particularly the history of geography as a senior secondary school subject. Much of it is based on primary sources, including the textbooks and atlases used, along with syllabus manuals and geography examination papers. It also provides a framework for investigating the construction of senior secondary school geography curricula in other constituencies, and could act as a model for engaging in further research in curriculum history for other school subjects state-wide, nationally and internationally. The book also makes an important contribution to the fields of curriculum design, curriculum development and curriculum innovation. It will be of great interest to historians of education, comparative educationists, education leaders, policy makers and librarians.
Download or read book Guidelines for Geographic Education written by and published by Assn of Amer Geographers. This book was released on 1984-01-01 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended as a current statement for improving geographic education, these guidelines suggest major changes needed to counteract a prevailing illiteracy in geography among U.S. citizens. A preface and problem statement provide a rationale for including geography education as a subject of study in the schools and as a scientific mode of inquiry. A section on the content and process of geographic education (1) demonstrates how geographic education focuses on five central themes (location, place, relationships within places, movement, and regions), how these themes recur and are amplified throughout the curriculum, and how they should be represented in the various levels of our schools; (2) suggests how schools can integrate these themes; (3) identifies the knowledge, skills, and perspectives students should gain from a systematic program in geographic education; and (4) suggests a variety of approaches to geography that each theme might imply. The following section, "The Place of Geography in the Curriculum," deals with the value of geographic inquiry, geography's relationship to other subjects, and geography as preparation for a career. In the next section, a chart depicting the role and sequence of geography education in the elementary school presents central foci and suggested learning outcomes by grade level. A suggested pattern of course offerings and sequence for geographic education in the secondary school is followed by an outline of skills to be included in high school geography courses and a list of learning outcomes arranged according to the five basic themes identified earlier in the guidelines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Scope of School Geography Collaboration may have its dangers; but it affords opportunity, of which we have availed ourselves fully, for criticism and argument. Perhaps collaborators feel more free to press their own views than he who merely confers the favour of reading an author's proof. And we may also admit that the subject of the book offers openings for alternative opinions, although we have succeeded in reconciling our own. For geography is a big subject, so big that no man may ever know the whole of it; and we are concerned here not to lay down the boundaries of the whole of it, but only those of an inner circle, to wit, its application to secondary school teaching. Even though our task goes no farther than that, it is necessary to endeavour to fulfil diverse objects. We have, as we take it, firstly to give some indication of the scope of a geography course which seeks to prepare the pupil merely for safe passage through the school certificate examination, and is severely limited in time to two periods per week. But secondly, we are now emboldened to believe that the school certificate is not the be-all and end-all of geography-teaching in secondary schools. Geography has become, or is rapidly becoming, a well-established university subject. But as soon as the school certificate stage is passed, if not even before, geography announces itself as an elastic subject - one in which the course of study may be deliberately led in this direction or that, whether the physical, or the mathematical, or the economic, or the historical elements be chosen.
