What is a learning line?
A learning line is an educational term that refers to the construction of knowledge and skills throughout the whole curriculum. This learning line reflects an increasing level of complexity, ranging from easy (more basic skills and knowledge) to difficult.Zwartjes, L., 2014. The need for a learning line for spatial thinking using GIS in education. Innovative Learning Geography in Europe: New Challenge for the 21st Century, pp.39-62.

Learning Lines Three possible approaches from the literature:• analytical, competence-based (Bloemen & Naaijkens,
2014)
• problem setting - concept-context approach for selecting learning goals (Van Moolenbroek & Boersma, 2013)
• spatial thinking framework (Perdue & Lobben, 2013)
- certain spatial thinking skills are higher order than others and build upon previous, less complex skills

Geospatial thinkingBased on this review, ten geospatial thinking competences are proposed for GI-Learner:
1. Critically read, interpret cartographic and other visualisations in different media
2. Be aware of geographic information and its representation through GI and GIS.
3. Visually communicate geographic information4. Describe and use examples of GI applications in daily life
and in society5. Use (freely available) GI interfaces

Geospatial thinking6. Carry out own (primary) data capture 7. Be able to identify and evaluate (secondary)
data8. Examine interrelationships9. Synthesise meaning from analysis 10.Reflect and act with knowledge

Definitions of “local”
Wal-Mart’s official definition of local is any product grown or produced within the given store’s state. So, lemons grown in San Diego can be sold and marketed as “local” 500 miles north in Sacramento

Layers of meaning… GI layers…• Favourite / least favourite subjects & memories
of encounters with teachers• Cleaning rota• Timetabling• Teacher ‘ownership’ who then moves on to
another school• Form room • Noisy or quiet• Distance from staffroom • Exposure to sun through the day

Interrelationships“I think that what is studied in geography lessons should be located and placed within a wider context. Places, regions, countries and continents do not exist in isolation but are interconnected. The location of what is studied in relation to other places is significant.”
