Leaving Students with More than Fools Gold.
Gritzner, Charles F.
Social Studies Teacher, v8 n2 p3,8-9 Nov-Jan 1986-87
Far too much time is spent in most elementary grades learning "What is where?" Far too little time is spent on learning "Why? and What of it?" Conceptual understanding is essential, and without it, isolated facts are only "fools gold." Provides a list of instructional questions based on 40 key geographic concepts which will aid students' geographic learning. (JDH)
