Abstract

This paper introduces basic considerations that inform education for geospatial thinking, as proposed in the KA2 Erasmus Plus GI-Learner project. It reports on some initial state-of-the-art activities of the project, presents a list of GI-Learner competences based on a broad literature review and establishes a roadmap for future support activities for geospatial learning.

Keywords: spatial thinking, secondary education, teacher training
