Call for Participation

Do you design creative and imaginative lesson plans that time and again have helped students to develop and expand their geographical imaginations?

If so, I would like to include some of your best creativity in a radio show/podcast committed to the exploration of this imagination.   I am looking for AP Human Geography Readers planning to be in Cincinnati this June who are interested in collaborating for an episode (or more) dedicated to pedagogy.

I understand that most, if not all, of what we do as geography teachers/professors informs our students’ geographical imaginations.  However, I want to bring together a variety of voices and variety of pedagogical strategies to explore “outside the box” lessons that either explicitly open discussion of the geographical imagination as a way of knowing or lessons that introduce geographical concepts in imaginative and exciting ways.  Especially welcome are ideas that foster the development of a geographical imagination with environmental, economic, social and political justice at their core.

Meetings/interviews will be conducted off-site and after work hours during the week of the reading.

If interested, check out the show here: https://www.geographicalimaginations.org/ and contact Kevin S. Fox (APHG Reader) via email at geographical.imaginations@gmail.com with any comments or questions.

Pecha Kucha Night Salzburg Vol. 24

Check out the Pecha Kucha presentation (20 slides, 20 seconds per slide) on Geographical Imaginations this Thursday evening, February 26th at 20.20 hours at ARGEkultur in downtown Salzburg.  I will outline the show and propose to do more public geographies with interested groups in and around the City of Mozart.  More information on both Pecha Kucha and the host organization can be found here.
