Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Geography To all students of geography it is a lamentable fact that there is even yet a lack of respect for this branch of science. Though we have a new geography rich and vital in its possibilities to contribute to twentieth century education, yet all too many teachers are oblivious of the significance and value of the subject and, in the schoolroom, are rattling the dry bones of formal statement and definition. Their view of the subject, and their method of teaching it, restricts its value and curtails the interest which it ought to enlist from pupils. The object of this volume is, first of all, to present and instill in the minds of teachers the true nature of modern geography. Therefore Part I is devoted to the Nature and Scope of Geography. It is hoped that its careful study will result in establishing a correct and broad view of a subject whose content is rich in edu cative possibilities.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Geography, in Elementary Schools In the teaching of geography, as in instruction of every kind, the fundamental condition for success is that the teacher has so thoroughly mastered the subject himself, and takes so much real interest in it, that he can speak to his pupils about it, not in the set phrases of a class book, but out of the fullness of his own knowledge, being quick to draw his most effective illustrations from the daily experience of those to whom he addresses himself.

Download or read book The Teaching of Geography Emphasizing the Project Or Active Method Classic Reprint written by Mendel E. Branom and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Geography, Emphasizing the Project, or Active, Method This book is the product of several years' experience by the authors in the directing of method courses in normal schools and universities. The "new geography," emphasizing interpretations as well as facts, has been heartily received. The modern spirit, however, has been imparted primarily by the geography departments of the universities, where the emphasis is placed on academic geography and the organization of geographic materials into a coherent body of knowledge. Both the content and method books of geography reflect the influence of the higher schools. The educator is not primarily interested in geography as an academic subject, but as a means of giving the child desirable experiences. He does not hesitate to overstep the boundary lines between subjects if he can give the child more befitting experiences. A practical man does not meet one situation that he calls geography and another situation that he calls history, but in the meeting of a situation he draws on any subject needed, in the proportion needed, to make an adequate interpretation. In his enthusiasm to organize educational content in accordance with the way that the world uses it, the educator has suggested the possibility of blending content subjects in unit situations under the name of social studies. The authors hold that it is possible to organize the geography course of study in such a way that the dominant viewpoint will be geographic and at the same time will permit of the interpretation of materials about life centers. Geography is primarily a study of the interacting relations of life forms and nature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Lessons in Geography: On the Plan of Object Teaching The plan of this little work is such, that the subject is presented in the most simple form. It treats of general features, such as the locality and description of Continents, Countries, States, Rivers, Mountains, &c., without dwelling prematurely upon details which embarrass the learner in his first effort. The Maps are free from all meridians, parallels of latitude, and any superabundance of names; thereby giving a greater prominence to the general divisions of land and water. The plan of Object Teaching, by which the mind receives impressions through the medium of the eye, is here so combined with the Map Exercises, that a child just able to read is at once interested and instructed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Geography: Suggestions Regarding Principles and Methods for the Use of Teachers For some years past there has been a growing recog nition of the extremely unsatisfactory position of Geography in the general educational system of this country. Various suggestions and efforts have been made to place the subject on a better footing. But reform in such matters is necessarily Slow. Inveterate habits of use and wont are apt to blind us to the need for change, and any attempt to alter the existing sys tem touches many different kinds of vested interests. Even those who sympathise with the proposals for reform raise their hands in despair, and ask where, amid the crowd of subjects now demanded, room is to be found for any new topic, or for any expansion of an old one. I fully recognise the gravity of these difficulties, and am by no means sanguine that they are all likely soon to be cleared away.

Instead of devoting two or three pages of text to the origin of mountains. A subject in which the average child takes no interest, we give in the general presentation of the physical geography of the earth four pictures of mountains, and under each picture give a brief description of the origin and character of the formation. The same course has been followed with reference to other physical features. The pupil will read these descriptions because of his interest in the picture, and will remember them for life because of their association with it.

It is highly necessary that the different parts of each of these maps should be distinguished by different colours, or at least by points or lines.
