CANCELLED-A Future of Geography Education Without Early-Career Scholars?

March 14, 2022 @ 7:00 pm EDT - 7:45 pm EDT

A pressing topic concerns the uncertain future of geography education. Numerous articles and at least one symposium have sought to outline ideal pathways. These efforts produced useful suggestions from tenured and emeritus professors, along with senior members of the geography education community. Strikingly absent from the discourse are perspectives of early-career geographers, the ones tasked with advancing geography’s future in education. In this research, we contacted early-career scholars in geography education—non-tenured geography educators up to seven years out of their doctorates and faculty up to two years after gaining tenure. We challenged them to write an abstract describing what they believe the future of geography education ought to look like and what challenges lie ahead. The discussion that follows is a synthesis of those insights.
