The integration of digital and mobile learning technologies in school geography is recognized as a key area for pedagogical innovation. Despite the perceived potential of technologies like geospatial tools, augmented reality, virtual environments, and AI platforms, there is a noted lack of systematic analysis linking their application to the development of interdisciplinary and meta-subject competencies. This gap prevents a comprehensive understanding of their impact on cross-curricular and meta-subject competency frameworks central to educational reform.

Why it matters

This area of study addresses the strategic objective of modernizing education through technology. Understanding how digital tools contribute to interdisciplinary and meta-subject competencies is crucial for designing effective curricula and preparing individuals for complex future challenges that require adaptable skills.

Key insights

  • Digital and mobile learning approaches are a significant direction for pedagogical innovation in school geography.
  • The systematic development of interdisciplinary and meta-subject competencies through these approaches is insufficiently theorized and empirically supported.
  • Individual studies suggest pedagogical potential in geospatial technologies, mobile augmented reality, immersive virtual environments, and AI-based platforms.
  • No comprehensive, systematic review has previously linked these digital learning applications to established cross-curricular and meta-subject competency frameworks.
