McKinney, William M.; Kapter, John D.

Journal of Geography, 74, 1, 32-36, Jan 75

A recently copyrighted instrument called the Geochron has been successfully used as a visual aid in teaching several major concepts of astronomical geography at the elementary, secondary, and college levels. The article discusses and illustrates the use of the Geochron to demonstrate earth-sun relationships, world time, and time zones. (Author/RM)
