Geography education research in the world: mapping challenges and opportunities across countries
- Abstract:
- Writing collaboratively as colleagues who have transitioned from teaching geography in high schools to becoming university-based academics researching and teaching geography education, this commentary offers insights into the challenges of, and opportunities for, geography education research (GER) across the countries in which we live and work: Australia, England, Germany, Singapore and the United States. Using McFarlane’s (2021, 2023) notion of geography in the world, we reflect upon the factors which shape geography education research in our country contexts. Then, through an examination of/across our own situated and relational geographic worlds, we argue the importance of developing practices that support Geography Education Research(ers) across diverse contexts.
