In problem-based learning (PBL), collaboration and productive interactions among group members are not spontaneous processes. One way to support students in PBL is to integrate self- and peer assessment to assess group members' contribution to solving the problem. The purpose of this case study was to determine the perceptions of Bachelor of…

Czigány, Szabolcs; Császár, Zsuzsa; Kiss, Kinga; Halmai, Ákos; Lóczy, Dénes; Nagyváradi, László; Pirkhoffer, Ervin – International Research in Geographical and Environmental Education, 2018
Remodeling of geography education has been an ongoing challenge recently. Constructivist pedagogy, employing tools of problem and model-based learning, offers new opportunities to meet these challenges. Geomodels, flumes and stream tables may ease the understanding of geographic processes through hand-on-experience for students. With a…

Ratinen, Ilkka; Keinonen, Tuula – International Research in Geographical and Environmental Education, 2011
Geographical Information Systems (GIS) are adequate for analyzing complex scientific and spatial phenomena in geography education. "Google Earth" is a geographic information tool for GIS-based learning. It allows students to engage in the lesson, explore the Earth, explain what they identify and evaluate the implications of what they are…

Tonts, Matthew – International Research in Geographical and Environmental Education, 2011
Problem-based learning (PBL) is one of a suite of strategies based on the premise that placing students at the centre of the learning process ultimately improves skills, knowledge and understanding. To date, however, there remain relatively few reports on the application of PBL within geography curricula. This paper traces the evolution of a PBL…

Dittmer, Jason – International Research in Geographical and Environmental Education, 2010
This paper addresses the potential for increased deployment of immersive virtual worlds in higher geographic education. An account of current practice regarding popular culture in the geography classroom is offered, focusing on the objectification of popular culture rather than its constitutive role vis-a-vis place. Current e-learning practice is…

Kwan, Tammy; So, Max – International Research in Geographical and Environmental Education, 2008
This study investigated the environmental learning of a group of senior geography students through a problem-based learning (PBL) field programme to see if the goals of education "for" the environment could be accomplished. In the PBL field programme, the students were given a problem statement concerning a real-life scenario of an old…
