Abstract

Mali je broj autora pisao o primjeni slijepih karata u nastavi geografije. Ta činjenica govori kako se radi o nedovoljno korištenom nastavnom sredstvu u nastavi geografije. Upravo slijepe karte mogu u nastavi geografije poslužiti kao odlično sredstvo za provjeru učeničkog poimanja prostora. Cilj rada jest provjeriti kako učestalost upotrebe slijepih karata kao nastavnog sredstva u nastavi geografije pridonosi boljem razvoju geografskih vještina i znanja učenika. Rad se temelji na anketnom istraživanju provedenom na uzorku od 169 učenika četvrtih razreda gimnazija u Virovitici i Slatini, a anketnim je upitnikom provjeravana usvojenost nastavnih sadržaja iz geografije Hrvatske. Istraživanjem je utvrđeno kako je razina učeničkog poimanja prostora manja u odnosu na činjenično znanje za iste odgojno-obrazovne ishode. Sukladno rezultatima, vidljiva je potreba za češćom upotrebom slijepih karata u nastavi geografije.

Abstract (english)

Blank maps have not been sufficiently used as a didactic method in geography education. However, they can serve as an effective means of examination of the students' spatial cognition and knowledge. The aim of this thesis is to determine the role that blank maps have in the students' acquisition of the geographical knowledge. This has been achieved by conducting a survey on a sample comprising 169 fourth grade high school students in Virovitica and Slatina. A survey tested the pupils' knowledge of the Geography of Croatia. The results show that students performed significantly better factual knowledge, as compared to the questions related to the blank maps. It can therefore be concluded that there is an apparent need for the more frequent and more thorough use of the blank maps in the geography education.
