The Brundtland Report and Agenda 21 report published in 1987 and 1992, respectively, diversified the mountainous area approaches and they have become a research subject for sustainability research. Studying developmental aspects of sustainability approaches towards mountainous areas and determining their limits have posed challenges since the beginning. Recently, these impediments are overcome by various Geographic Information Systems and criteria for mountainous area relimitations based on environmental and topographic characteristics. However, socio-economic assessments for the mountainous area relimitations are yet to be performed. This article highlights the importance of international and national scale in, several relimitation projects and analysis of Giresun’s mountainous areas focusing on topographical and the socio\u0002economic characteristics. A three-step approach has been adopted for socio-economic analysis of mountainous areas. The first step is the introduction of the physical integrity of the mountainous areas and the natural environmental conditions. The second is to determine the boundaries of mountainous areas and zones affected by mountainous areas in social and economic terms by adhering to natural conditions. Third, the socio-economic analysis of the mountainous areas in Giresun Province through 11 criteria. An assessment proposal based on socio-economic characteristics regarding human-nature interactions in mountainous areas has been presented, as well. The diversity of aspects that affect the sustainability of mountainous areas is explained with practical examples.","PeriodicalId":51539,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geography","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2021-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74017299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The subject became a NAEP content subject assessment in 1994 (National Assessment Governing Board 1994), and was administered to a sample of 4, 8, and 12 grade students randomly selected to represent the national school population. NAEP assessments were known to increase attention to the subjects assessed. Attention to geography resulted and the aspirational elements of the assessment revealed a newness to the subject that engaged students. Also adding to the optimism for increased attention for the subject was a second development, also aspirational in its intent. It was the publication of Geography for Life, the first national standards for the subject (Geography Education Standards Project 1994), written for all students at all grades, K-12. The assessment and the standards were based on well-defined, aspirational frameworks that integrated the established traditions of the subject with new perspectives on the content and importance of geography education. Each served a particular role in defining what students should know and be able to do with geography, with the added caveat that the assessment would enable educators to determine how well students were learning geography content and skills. The assessment framework was prepared and first assessment administered prior to the national standards. Both drew from geography as a discipline but were not structured similarly in their coverage of the subject. Each of the post1994 NAEP Geography assessments attempted to develop a closer integration of content from the national standards into NAEP Geography at the item and items cluster levels. The underlying intent of the standards/assessment driven reform movement was to impact the curriculum, which was established independently in each of the 50 States, District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and U.S territories. While referred to as national standards and national assessment, there was no compelling reason for state or territorial governing units to accept and adopt either the standards or the assessment as the criteria for establishing a geography education curriculum. The aspirational goals of NAEP Geography and the national standards were intended to redesign the content of geography education in the curriculum. This included greater rigor to challenge students to apply a spatial perspective both inside and outside of school, to apply the tools of geography such as maps and imagery in solving problems, and to develop a greater concern for newly developing issues between society and the natural environment. NAEP geography set expectations in the framework for student performance in terms relative to the nature and structure of the discipline of geography (National Assessment Governing Board 1994).
