Concepts for historical and geographical thinking in Sweden's | ResearchBunny

Index

Abstract

This study compares the presence of concepts for historical and geographical thinking in the national primary education curricula of Spain and Sweden. A qualitative investigation using a horizontal evaluation instrument analyzed four dimensions: curriculum structure, educational methodologies, objectives and evaluation, and content. Despite differing structures for history and geography, neither curriculum prioritizes historical and geographical thinking concepts. The low presence of these concepts is linked to traditional teaching models based on positivism and memorization.
