Geography and teaching geography
(objectives)
The course aims to accompany students in understanding the elements of territory that form the structure of our everyday life, and to mould their reading of the geographic processes and their interactions based on three fundamental analysis procedures: morphology of the landscape, systemic, psychological-semantical. After presenting the geographer’s instruments for the analysis of the territory (both cartographic and statistical), we will proceed to examine the different components of the territory, from those concerning the Science of the Earth to themes related to human geography. The cues offered by the different themes will be considered for a didactic application.
