GEOGRAPHY EDUCATION AND STUDY OF TERRITORY: POSSIBILITIES FOR INTEGRATION IN SOCIAL SCIENCES TEACHING
Journal Title: Problems of Education in the 21st Century - Year 2011, Vol 27, Issue 3
Abstract
This paper is based on results of the research project: Guidelines for an Antioquia professorship and it aims to demonstrate the possibilities of curriculum integration that territory, as a matter of education, provides by taking the educational process of social sciences and in particular, seeking to educate knowledgeable citizens of the living space. It is a pedagogical approach where territory as a conceptual resource, is defined as the located area, consisting of a nation, socially produced, always in process and where political, economic, cultural and natural dimensions are identified; these are all conceptual systems that explain it and demand interdependence and complementarity between them when being taught. As a pedagogical approach is conceptual and methodologically based on classical thinkers like John Dewey and contemporary authors such as Milton Santos, Gimeno Sacristán, María Laura Silveira, Raquel Gurevich, Lawrence Stenhouse, Carlos Álvarez de Zayas among others.
