Geography was always a let down for me in school. It was like history. It could be so interesting, but the teachers somehow managed to skirt the interesting topics, and instead have you learning inane boring content.
I wish we had tools such as GeoSense in the classroom.
It would be great to be able to “play a game” with other students. I would have really gotten into physical geography then. Also, it doesn’t stop at just “where is some place in Africa”. You can extend this to have information on all kinds of political, historical, and social issues that relate to geography.
I am sure todays teachers are wise to this and don’t get up front in class and blabber on at the kids :/
