Notes

Geography is a major subject in the New Zealand high school curriculum and has been for many years. Even though geography has enjoyed a key position among the school subjects, geographic education as a part of teacher preparation at the university level was introduced for the first time in 1976. Geographic education was included as a part of the post-graduate Diploma in the Social Sciences developed by the Geography Department of Massey University near Palmerston North. The new course shows promise as a model for similar programs that might be developed in other parts of the world and could be of real value in upgrading geographic knowledge among California teachers.
