Geography in Education: Lost in the Post?

By David Lambert and David Lambert

This lecture posits that contemporary geography is a school subject of great significance and has a lot to offer children and young people growing up in a rapidly changing and dangerous world. Well-prepared teachers can use it in a way that contributes both to their own and their students' capabilities. Lambert argues that geography is re-emerging as a subject discipline for its times, both in academia and in the public realm. In the context of our collective need more fully to understand human occupancy of the Earth, geography in schools has a new role to play.
