Facilitating the Transition: Doing More than Bridging the Gap between School and University Geography
Journal of Geography in Higher Education, v42 n3 p372-383 2018
This paper explores issues, perceptions, and experiences related to the transition from studying geography at school to university. The findings seek to highlight that there are a range of stakeholders that can be engaged in this transition process, as well as a range of strategies for doing so. The transition from school to university geography has a number of implications for both students and educators, and this paper seeks to discuss reinvigorate discussions around transitions in the geographical community.
