The Insertion of Methodological Tools in Geography Teaching

After pointing out the difficulties encountered by teachers when teaching geography of which there are many I highlighted some of the tools that can be used in lessons ranging from newspapers and magazines to models map-making and other materials that are easy to access and of great value when worked with a pre-defined objective. Despite these difficulties teachers have countless materials at their disposal which when transformed into methodological tools contribute significantly to increasing student interest. As teachers we must always look for different means and methods to transmit knowledge using the materials and spaces available to instil in students a critical sense to form their own opinions. After all The main aim of education is to create men who are capable of doing new things not simply repeating what other generations have done Piaget 1970. I would like to thank my family especially my mum Vera and my husband Maicon for the strength they have given me and my friends Mari de Fátima Carla Cerlei and Marta.
