Journal Title: Geografická revue - Year 2017, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
This contribution tries to find anwers to the question how to accurately approach the process of clarification of important geographical topics and problems. In the Introduction it explains the matter of the differences among information, know-ledge, opinions, statements as value-neutral enities and attitudes, the foundation of which are values, functioning as standards, according to which we evaluate our behaviour and actions of others. In the next part of our contribution we clarify basic principles of the informative approach and "the approach of attitudes to-wards teaching Geography." We explain basic differences in the application of these two approaches on the topic example of the migration of the population and we state the reasons which led us into preferring teaching methods and acti-vities developing all parts of students´attitudes.
