Course Description:
This course will focus on two specific geographic
perspectives—spatial and ecological-- to help students
understand spatial patterns and processes and the
interaction of living and nonliving elements in complex webs
of relationships within nature and between nature and
society. People look at the world from varying personal
perspectives shaped by complex combinations of personal
experience, occupational roles, self-interest, and community
interest. The disciplines of economics and geography contain
other perspectives that provide different frames of
reference for asking and answering questions, identifying
and solving problems, and evaluating the consequences of
alternative actions. This course will assist teachers in
grades 6-12 with integrating economic concepts into an
existing geography curriculum.
