Geography of Education sets out the scope of this emergent,
interdisciplinary field. It illustrates the essential affinity of
geographical and educational studies, by emphasising the
geographical factors influencing formal education systems and other
forms of knowledge transfer. Colin Brock begins by arguing the
theoretical synergy that exists between the nature of both
geography and educational studies as disciplines. This is then
exemplified by an analysis of the emergence of systems of schooling
under the influence of religious, political and economic forces.
The author also considers informal and non-formal modes of
education, and argues that the huge diversity of such provision
creates a rich resource for research into geographies of education.
In the final chapters the author turns his attention to the role of
cyberspace, which has its own geography, in learning, and considers
education as a form of humanitarian response to issues of
environmental sustainability. By bringing together a wide range of
themes and topics relating to both education and geography, Colin
Brock argues that the geographical approach should inform the
evolution of all types of educational provision around the world.
