Education Eclipse 072 Increasing Geoliteracy Through Puzzle Maps
Geo-literacy
was a term coined by National Geographic to describe the understanding of how our world works that is required of ALL members of a modern, globally interconnected society. It's way more than being able to find countries on a map.
We sat down with
Sarah Newcomer, an associate professor of literacy education at Washington State University Tri-Cities, and she shared a cool project that she’s working on to help increase geo-literacy.
Education Eclipse is a podcast. But it's more than that. It's the conversations happening inside education that are going to transform
education, improve lives, and help solve our societal Grand Challenges. We cover all aspects of teaching and learning, educational leadership and psychology, kinesiology, and sport management. And, as an added bonus, you get to know the key people behind all
the research and scholarship.
