  3. 1.Course Orientation Geography Subject? High Normal School Geography? Quality Oriented Education?

  4. 1.1 Status of China Geography in Geography Subjects • Cognition (1) Dichotomy in Traditional Geography: Physical Geography & Human Geography Systematic Geography & Regional Geography Topical Geography & Integrated Geography

  5. China Physical Geography General Physical Geography Geography Integrated Geography Regional Physical Geography Physical Geography Paleogeography ··· Topical Geography China Human Geography Regional Human Geography China Geography Human Geography ··· Systematic Human Geography “China Geography” belongs to Regional Geography with synthesis characteristics.

  6. Cognition (2) Dichotomy in Modern Geography (Qian Xuesen) : Geography Science is an intersecting subject on natural science and social science. Resource & Environment Science Basic Geography Geosciences Application Geography Region China Geography “China Geography” combines Geosciences and Resource & Environment with basic and application characteristics.

  7. Cognition (3) Trichotomy in Modern Geography (Yang Wuyang et,al.) China Geography Socio-Cultural Geography and Branch Social-Human science Regional Geography Tec-economy Biogeography Economic Geography and Branch Physical Geography and Branch “China Geography” is an intersecting subject on Nature,Society(Human) and Economy(Technology),with high integration.

  8. Three Key Words in Regional Geography: • Region(Conception) • Synthesis(Method) • PRED(Regional Sustainable Development)

  9. Terms about Region Place Area Region Space Location Unit Globe – World Physics Relation Scale

  10. Multi-Dimension and 3s Technology of Region • Three Dimensional Space:From spherical surface to flat (map projection) using longitude \ latitude, altitude to identify location. • Attribute Radius:Identify the region with some geographic characters. • Corresponding to some patches in the map(M) • Determine the nature:RS(Energy Differentiation) • Orientation-Delimitation:GPS • Multi-Dimensional Geographic Characters:GIS(Overlaying social and natural information) • Temporal Dimension:Different Temporal Dimension and Resolution

  11. 1.2 Status of China Geography in National Quality-oriented Education • Status in Geography Teaching of Middle School Full-Time Compulsory Education of Ministry of Education Geographical Curriculum Criterion 2001 Geography 7 to 9 grade Globe and Map China Geography World Geography Local Geography

  14. Chinese Physical Geography Chinese Economic Geography China Geography Integrate 1.3 Status of China Geography in High Normal School Geography • Courses in Specialty(Required)of Geography Department(1952-1995) Traditional Regional Geography Course(4 parts): Chinese Physical GeographyWorld Physical Geography Chinese Economic Geography World Economic Geography • Geography Teaching Instruction Committee of Ministry of Education in 1995: • Regional Geography is the core course of geography undergraduate teaching

  15. Department of the Resource & Environmental Science (Required)(1995-2001)

  16. Basic Speciality Course of Department of the Resource & Environmental Science (2001-2003) • Basic Speciality Course of Department of School of Geography(2004) Geography, Resource & Environmental Science, GIS(required) • More than 70 percent of theses including doctor,master and bachelor,saved by this department data room,research on China Geography (from 1982 to 1996) Basic Foundation and Domain of Choosing Title of Writing Thesis China Geography

  17. 2. Course Target • Target of Knowledge: • Understand: the location of China and its meaning • Master: the features and structure of geographical environment • of China • Understand: the basic process of formation and evolution of • geographical environment • Know: the regional division of China • Analyze: the relationship of PRED of typical regions • (Population,Resource,Environment and Sustainable Development)

  18. Target of Ability and Skill: • The ability of differentiating remote sensing images; • The ability of analyzing maps; • The ability of analyzing regions interactively; • The ability of finding regional problems; • The ability of regional innovative thoughts and describing regional geography.

  19. Target of Attitude and Emotion: • Teacher: • A superior teacher demonstrates • Persist on developing good points to avoid shortcomings • Student: • Earnest, Honesty, Observe the laws of the course • Increase the passion for our homeland, care about the existence and • development of our country and hometown • Diligence, Practical-mended, Innovation

  20. 3.Course Content 3.1 Research Object and Assignment • Research Object :Earth Surface Layer inside China Boundary • Main Assignment: Illuminate the characters, mechanism and differentia of Structure of China geography Understand national conditions,build up concept of sustainable development Settle the foundation of geography education and regional geography of China

  21. 3.2 Guiding Thought for Content Design • Indicate “Region+Integration+Sustainable Development” • Three keys: From dualism to monism:Chinese physical geography,Chinese human/economic geographyChinese physical geography + Chinese human/economic geographyIntegration of facing to PRED; Regional difference of China geography: physical zones differentia human-land system; Content:Chinese physical geography,Chinese human/economic geography Population,resource,environment and development

  26. 4.Teaching Design and Require of China Geography Course 4.1 Teaching Model Teaching step:multi-resources information--teachers and students two-way to feedback Including:prelection, CAI,scientific report, network interview,written examination,practice,homework,discussion Lecture in classroom:teaching mainly(electronic software) CAI assisting, scientific report Discussion:improvisatory Discussion problems or homework discussion thematic argument Homework Model:make thematic map,collect television information small article with problems

  27. 4.2 Studying Model: • Inject teaching content into research project,adopt “cooperation-discussion” teaching method,develop research study mainly. • Teaching content at province level,adopt “pearl-necklace” teaching method,develop independent study mainly. • Persist “elicitation” in the course of teaching ,adopt “guide- instruct-teach” teaching method,develop exploration study.

  28. 4.3 Requirement: Class attending:first to second class on Wednesday; first to second class on Friday. Not late for feedback, not absent. Homework:deliver homework within two weeks, expired or not. Discussion:every person no less than one core lecture practice:not absent.
