dc.description.abstract | Geographic educators are continuously developing new and creative ways to integrate geospatial technology and spatial thinking in a wide array of EC-16 courses. Ensuring teachers are effectively trained in these new ways is important so EC-16 students can excel in their own geographic knowledge and skills. A mixed methods design was employed to investigate pre-service participants' perceptions and change in spatial thinking after using geospatial technology in a prepared geospatial technology module. Results show an improvement in spatial thinking, as well as a receptive attitude toward the use of geospatial technology as a teaching tool. | |
