Topic: Thinking geographically. Questions for discussion: how do geographers think spatially? How do we apply technology and geographic skills to study the world and use our knowledge to solve practical problems? Human geography introduces students to the concept of spatial thinking. Knowing the location of places, people, and events is a gateway to understanding complex environmental relationships and interconnections among places and across landscapes. According to geographer Joseph Kerski: Spatial thinking is identifying, analyzing, and understanding the location, scale, patterns, and trends of the geographic and temporal relationships among data, phenomena, and issues. Spatial thinking helps us better understand our world and solve the tough problems.
