Using "Petites Projects" to Further Engage Students in Geography
Katz, Richard
Geography Teacher, v10 n1 p28-33 2013
The challenge of teaching AP Human Geography to high school students is to make geography relevant, engaging and "real world." Often the pace of teaching AP classes constrains the ability of teachers to do creative projects and truly engage students until after the exam is over in May. In this lesson plan, the author suggests using "Petites Projects" to further engage students in geography and provides a list of all the linked chapters (using Rubenstein's "The Cultural Landscape" 9th ed.) to Petites Projects that he does with each along with Web sites (if applicable) that might help in understanding and completing them. (Contains 9 figures.)
