Geographic Education: Theories and Teaching Practices in Different Fields
01About This Special Issue
The special issue Geographic education: theories and teaching practices in different fields. Its purpose is to compile research results and good teaching practices in geographic education in different countries. Geographic education continues to be a necessity in the integral formation of present and future generations. It is defined as the process of transmission and appropriation of knowledge, procedures, and attitudes related to geographic science in the school or non-school context, i.e., formal (school-based) and informal (non-school-based). All this means teaching and learning to understand the complex nature-nature, society-nature, and society-society relationships, in a specific place in the geographic space, at a local, regional or global level. Geographical education, at present, is in a complex framework established by a geographical science fragmented in traditions and approaches, which accentuate the division of an object to be studied between the natural and the social; and by the immeasurable challenges posed by society to education. In this sense, the teaching-learning process of Geography, the core of geographic education, must be developed in the achievement of a harmonious relationship between the philosophical, epistemological, sociological, psycho-pedagogical, and didactic foundations that are assumed.
