Abstract: Geographies of everyday life are subject to constant change. Social utilization and appro-priation, attachment of meanings and negotiation, decay and restoration, planning and modification, artefacts and architectural alteration develop these spaces. In this paper, we regard spatial planning not only as an institutional category but as the intended alteration of geographies and as a core domain of geography with the strongest future-oriented impetus. People are agents and objects of spatial planning, being influenced and being potentially influential at the same time. We have to ask how people can participate in these changes, bringing in (and improving) creative approaches, thus innovating geographies and societies. This question emphasizes innovativeness, i.e. the ability to create innovations, as an educational aim. For this, we have to define the fuzzy term ‘innovation’ more clearly for an educational and a geographical context. In this regard, we enrich approaches such as Spatial Citizenship in which geomedia are used as tools to communicate about spaces in order to appropriate and change them. Keywords: innovation, innovativeness, geography education, planning, spatial citizenship Published Online: 2016/06/29 10:36:43 Object Identifier: 0xc1aa5576 0x0034005c Rights:https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0/
GI_Forum publishes high quality original research across the transdisciplinary field of Geographic Information Science (GIScience). The journal provides a platform for dialogue among GI-Scientists and educators, technologists and critical thinkers in an ongoing effort to advance the field and ultimately contribute to the creation of an informed GISociety. Submissions concentrate on innovation in education, science, methodology and technologies in the spatial domain and their role towards a more just, ethical and sustainable science and society. GI_Forum implements the policy of open access publication after a double-blind peer review process through a highly international team of seasoned scientists for quality assurance. Special emphasis is put on actively supporting young scientists through formative reviews of their submissions. Only English language contributions are published.
