Students need more practice with spatial thinking in geoscience education: a systematic review of the literature
ABSTRACT Myriad research in a variety of contexts shows spatial skills benefit students; however, they are not given enough attention in classroom instruction. In this review we systematically explore geoscience education literature focusing on spatial interventions to answer research questions on trends in spatial skills and other characteristics. We narrow our attention to studies published since numerous calls to action to teach more spatial skills in STEM education, resulting in 28 articles for review. To analyse and compare these studies, we organise the literature into a framework of geoscience-relevant spatial skills. We reviewed interventions and assessments to determine the aligning spatial typology skills. Themes of coursework, mapping, and modelling emerged; sub-themes include sketching, gestures, physical models, computer models, and curricular interventions. In the articles reviewed, just over half of the skills identified were intrinsic skills. Future geospatial research should explore how best to incorporate spatial skills into the classroom over long time periods and should focus on the process of spatial reasoning and the strategies students use when problem-solving about spatial phenomena, especially at the elementary and secondary school level. Educators can use the resources outlined in this review to engage in spatialising their curricula.
期刊介绍:
The central aim of Studies in Science Education is to publish review articles of the highest quality which provide analytical syntheses of research into key topics and issues in science education. In addressing this aim, the Editor and Editorial Advisory Board, are guided by a commitment to:
maintaining and developing the highest standards of scholarship associated with the journal;
publishing articles from as wide a range of authors as possible, in relation both to professional background and country of origin;
publishing articles which serve both to consolidate and reflect upon existing fields of study and to promote new areas for research activity.
Studies in Science Education will be of interest to all those involved in science education including: science education researchers, doctoral and masters students; science teachers at elementary, high school and university levels; science education policy makers; science education curriculum developers and text book writers.
Articles featured in Studies in Science Education have been made available either following invitation from the Editor or through potential contributors offering pieces. Given the substantial nature of the review articles, the Editor is willing to give informal feedback on the suitability of proposals though all contributions, whether invited or not, are subject to full peer review. A limited number of books of special interest and concern to those involved in science education are normally reviewed in each volume.
