Pinpoint The Absolute Location Of a Place On The Earth’s Surface Based On Scaffolding Strategy

A social constructivist based scaffolding strategy has been developed for locating positions on the earth using latitude and longitude, for introductory geography students. The main purpose of this strategy is the determination of the location of a place on earth surface. The strategy will help the introductory geography studentstolocate positions on the earth using latitude and longitude. Thus this scaffolding designed activity serves as a great way to reinforce understanding of specific topic in the course. In our experience this activity is much more stimulating to students than the traditional approaches.
