CREATIVE GEOGRAPHY Activities That Build 21st-Century Skills

This is definitely not an old-fashioned geography book with activities like map labeling and rainfall charts. This is a collection of activities for a new generation of students who are being trained to do more than just memorize a group of facts about a subject or fill out worksheets. They are being taught to find information from multiple sources, evaluate it, and apply it in a number of real-life and creative applications. Some of the activities can be conducted throughout the school year, others in one or two hour lessons. Some are history-based activities that sometimes include role-playing. Several involve contemporary problems and issues that students must try to resolve. This book is for history, geography, and current events teachers who want their students to go beyond learning basic geography skills
