Скачать или смотреть Critical Geography & Social Justice Education

This session was recorded on Feb. 27th for the 2023 TCSS Annual Conference.

Critical geography is the use of geographic concepts to illuminate and challenge issues of inequality. By analyzing power structures, critical geography education can be used to promote transformational learning that centers matters of social justice. This session introduces the lens of critical geography and demonstrates its use in social studies education. For example, the principle of spatial inequality is used to analyze segregation, legacies of colonialism, sexism, and environmental injustice. Explicit connections are made between geography and other strands in the Tennessee Academic Standards for Social Studies.
