SUMMARY:Case Studies and World Geography
DESCRIPTION:Summary\nThis professional development session will explore the power of case studies in enhancing student learning in world geography. Participants will learn how to select and develop compelling real-world case studies relevant to diverse global issues.

Participants will gain valuable insights into assessing student understanding through various methods\, including individual reflections\, group presentations\, and creative projects.
