Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pupil's Workbook in the Geography of California: The Problem Method The New Geography. During recent years a great revolution has taken place in the teaching of geography. \'ve no longer stress merely the locational, the political, the physical, or the economic and commercial phases of the subject for their own sake. Instead we aim to teach all the facts of geography in connection with the ways in which they affect human life. Problem Study. \vith the change in the viewpoint has come a great change in method. Instead of striving to teach children to memorize a great mass of facts, we endeavor to interest them and to promote the study by presenting worth-while problems to be solved. This has led to the socialized recitation, in which teachers and students work out the problems together, and to the introduction of the project method of teaching. It is almost impossible to make a project textbook, but the problems given in this book will suggest many projects which can be worked out by students in the classroom and at home. The Importance of California Geography. No other state is as varied as California in its geography, and in no other state can so many interesting geographical problems be found. In this book we have tried to interest children, to give them an understanding of California's wonderful resources and their uses, and to provide a basis for comparing California with other areas. A great wealth of helpful material is available to the teacher of California geography. Some of the most useful sources of information are the following.

Download or read book The Geography of California Classic Reprint written by Harold Wellman Fairbanks and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Geography of California The geography of California is a vast and many sided subject which has never yet been adequately treated. It is not the inten tion of the author in presenting this little hand-book to take up the subject in an exhaustive manner, for that would require a large volume. Nor is his intention to present a mere description of the various aspects of the geography of the State, for this has already been done, although in an inadequate manner, in various little school supplements and advertising pamphlets. Moreover, mere description cannot impart real geographic knowledge, since we must know something of causes and relations. The object which the author has in mind is rather to give a simple and yet detailed description of the conditions under which we are living, and weave them into a connected and rational whole, so that teachers and pupils may acquire the elements of a rational knowledge of California. As our work in geography is at present outlined it is ridiculously unphilosophical as well as thoroughly inadequate. The geography of California is extraordinarily varied and interesting. Children should not leave school without some elementary conceptions of the origin and meaning of the physical features about them, of the strongly contrasted climatic condi tions, and of the influence which these exert upon our lives.

Download or read book Exploring California Through Project Based Learning written by Carole Marsh and published by Gallopade International. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring California through Project-Based Leaning includes 50 well-thought-out projects designed for grades 3-5. In assigning your students projects that dig into CaliforniaÕs geography, history, government, economy, current events, and famous people, you will deepen their appreciation and understanding of California while simultaneously improving their analytical skills and ability to recognize patterns and big-picture themes. Project-based learning today is much different than the craft-heavy classroom activities popular in the past. Inquiry, planning, research, collaboration, and analysis are key components of project-based learning activities today. However, that doesnÕt mean creativity, individual expression, and fun are out. They definitely arenÕt! Each project is designed to help students gain important knowledge and skills that are derived from standards and key concepts at the heart of academic subject areas. Students are asked to analyze and solve problems, to gather and interpret data, to develop and evaluate solutions, to support their answers with evidence, to think critically in a sustained way, and to use their newfound knowledge to formulate new questions worthy of exploring. While some projects are more complex and take longer than others, they all are set up in the same structure. Each begins with the central project-driving questions, proceeds through research and supportive questions, has the student choose a presentation option, and ends with a broader-view inquiry. Rubrics for reflection and assessments are included, too. This consistent framework will make it easier for you assign projects and for your students to follow along and consistently meet expectations. Encourage your students to take charge of their projects as much as possible. As a teacher, you can act as a facilitator and guide. The projects are structured such that students can often work through the process on their own or through cooperation with their classmates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in its fourth edition, Rediscovering the Golden State: California Geography examines this unique state’s incredibly diverse landscapes, and how geography and geographic change influences everything from the state’s natural systems and cycles, to its agriculture and more advanced industries, to human migration, cultures, and urban planning. Exploring California through a geographic lens reveals how the field has evolved to cross traditional boundaries, connect local and global issues, and provide the insights that lead to practical solutions to problems new and old. Challenging the reader to look beyond stereotypes and assumptions, this book encourages active participation in planning the state’s dynamic future. And this project makes teaching and learning about the geography of California more convenient, exciting, and rewarding for instructors and students. Going beyond a scientific analysis of natural features and environmental processes, this book illustrates how social, political, and economic divides can be bridged through the study of geography and the connections it brings to light. From geology, weather and climate, biogeography, and hydrology, we cover the state’s physical geography. And from demography and migration, to cultures and economies, to rural and urban geography, we monitor the state’s human geography pulse and then make the vital connections. California continues to lead the nation in population, economics (5th largest in the world), agriculture, natural and cultural diversity, and a host of other categories. This powerful state has earned this powerful publication. This timely and versatile book will prove useful to Californians in business, education, government, and to concerned citizens and curious readers seeking to learn more about the Golden State.
