Reaching New Standards: GIS And K-12 Geography
REACHING NEW STANDARDS GIS AND K12 geography. Sarah W. Bednarz Department ofgeography Texas A M University College Station, Texas 77843-3147. ABSTRACT.
http://wwwsgi.ursus.maine.edu/gisweb/spatdb/gislis95/gi95006.html

Extractions: College Station, Texas 77843-3147 ABSTRACT GIS is slowly becoming a part of geography instruction in elementary and secondary schools in the United States. This paper reviews progress in the adoption of GIS in K-12 geography. A contemporary theory of learning, constructivism, is used to analyze the role GIS can play in teaching geography and to build a case for its importance. Two models of teaching GIS are presented and illustrated. An argument is made that further research and careful evaluation of K-12 GIS programs are essential to justify further dissemination efforts. Key words: National Geography Standards, GIS, K-12 education, constructivism PROGRESS The growth of GIS in geography is evident from the increase in the number of workshops and sessions devoted to the topic at national meetings of K-12 geography teachers. Anecdotal evidence such as informal discussions and reports of projects in a variety of locations indicates that many geography teachers are more than just interested in GIS. They have begun to use it in a variety of innovative ways. Like any technological innovation, making GIS an integral part of geography instruction will take time. The process of adoption takes place in four stages: awareness (What is GIS?), understanding (How can I

Extractions: Part of the Florida Geographic Alliance's collection of lesson plans Grade Level: Time: The time for this lesson will depend upon the students. Some areas will take more time than others. This is a theme study and a certain amount of time must be set aside each day for each subject area to be covered. Location, Place, Human Environment, Regions, Movement Geography can be taught using a variety of books. In first grade students love to be read aloud to. To use literature and add a geography lesson from that piece of literature is exciting and fun. A theme can move smoothly from one subject matter to the next by using children's literature. The classroom must reflect this by having centers/stations arranged for the children to have a hands-on experience. Art work and written work needs to show all subject areas are being covered. The student will: be attentive to the reading of Sarah Plain and Tall locate Maine and Kansas on the wall map and desk map and put a large round sticky dot on each state and stretch a piece of twine from Maine to Kansas.

The emphasis on maintaining as much of a "real world" feeling as possible. To this end, each class begins with "SITREP" ("situation representation") briefs by the class. This work is done in groups or individually, and each student has a specific area of responsibility (or "desk") for the entire semester. Indeed, classroom discussions play an enormous role in this course. This course features daily situational (SITREP) briefs, a formal SITREP brief, and three preliminary exams.
