Themes and Counterpoints in Geographic Education.
Gersmehl, Philip J.
Journal of Geography, v91 n3 p119-23 May-Jun 1992
Discusses the proper use of themes in teaching. Examines the five themes of geography: location, place, interaction, movement, and region. Presents counterpoints demonstrating the value of analogies as a less direct way of introducing a theme. Argues that teaching is an art and a craft requiring diplomacy and creativity. (DK)
