Introduction to geography. Introductory course in physical geography Geography study from the beginning

Geography is one of the sciences about the planet Earth - our common home, the only planet solar system, where a representative of the species Homo sapiens lives - a reasonable person. Numerous representatives of the animal and plant world live and peacefully coexist on it. There are continents, oceans and air, without which life is impossible. Unfortunately, inhabited worlds, galaxies and universes conquered by man, remain a reality only in the world of science fiction.

The limits of the inhabited Oikoumene are what geography studies. The boundaries of the known world expanded significantly when man first circled the planet, went into outer space, was able to live and work for months and years in zero gravity at stations launched into planetary orbit. And yet, despite the active development of science and technology, the only space surface that man has set foot on is our satellite, the Moon.


The Moon is the Earth's satellite ()

The struggle for supremacy in space has lost its relevance, but the role of geography has increased in modern world. Today, no country in the world, no matter how developed it is, cannot extend space travel beyond the Earth-Moon system only with the help of its economic potential. Therefore, the question of why it is necessary to study geography is relevant right now, because the future belongs to joint global projects. It is the collective cooperation of many countries involved in the construction, development, allocation of financial resources and intellectual resources that can help humanity rise one more step in space exploration.

Today, a similar project already exists - this is the international space station (ISS), built by several states (construction began in 1998), initially leading in the space industry. Russia is also a leader because it was the first in the world to launch the domestic Salyut space station into Earth's orbit.


International Space Station)

The next station after the Moon for the younger generation is clear - this is Mars. And now is the time to get acquainted with a new science that will help to understand the meaning of geography in general, to find out how unique and unrepeatable our planet is not only in the Solar System, but also in itself, carrying life in all its variety of species.


The planet Mars ()

The Earth is not only one of the planets of the solar system, she was lucky enough to be inhabited. Therefore, the role of geography in solving global problems humanity is great and truly immense. Man is surrounded by an amazingly beautiful, diverse and unique world. It has its own laws and every second there are certain natural processes and phenomena that affect a person positively or negatively.

People see the change of seasons, how sunrises give way to sunsets, and clouds and thunderclouds sweep across the sky. Become witnesses of devastating earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, floods and tsunamis. They read news about new species of animals and plants, changes in the borders and names of states, and much more. “What”, “where” and “why” are the main questions that have been worrying people since ancient times. The role of geography in human life is to explain the nature of the processes and phenomena occurring around.

The theme of geography and geographical facts is widely represented by world cinema. A rich legacy of feature films and documentaries about the role of geography in the world has been created. Poets and writers of the Golden and Silver Ages dedicated their works - poetry and prose - to her: I. Lando, F. Tyutchev, etc.

Do not lag behind the recognized masters of the pen and schoolchildren of the 21st century. Turning the first page of the textbook, they quietly plunge into the world of the most interesting subject, learning the true role of geography in modern society. They try to transfer their emotions from regular geographical discoveries to paper.

One of the main meanings of geography in a person's life is the expansion of his horizons. Throughout life, people see with their own eyes how the world in which they live is changing. Changes in riverbeds and climate, the appearance and disappearance of lakes, new species of animals and plants, states, and the like do not happen somewhere on Mars or Venus, but next to us every day. Being a part of these changes, understanding their causes, being able to predict the future and striving to make life on the planet better - this is what an amazing geographical discipline teaches.

What does geography study and who invented it?

In general, geography is the science of the earth. The term is formed from two Greek words “geo” (earth) and “grapho” (I write, describe). Literally translated as “description of the earth” or “land description”. Consequently, geography is a natural science, the purpose of which is to describe the processes occurring in the surrounding space. Why did Greek words become the basis for introducing a new term into life?

This geographical moment is associated interesting story which is over 2000 years old.

It is believed that the name of the scientist who gave the name to the science of "geography" is Eratosthenes of Cyrene, the greatest ancient Greek philosopher. He lived at the turn of the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC. Today we can say with confidence how powerful the breakthrough for the development of science was, which Eratosthenes launched with a light hand, the contribution to the development of the geography of this man turned out to be truly great.

The founder of the science of "geography" first used the term in his philosophical writings. Until our time, references to the book of Eratosthenes "Geography" have been preserved. Although there is nothing surprising in this - he was the second chief custodian of the famous Egyptian Library of Alexandria (after the Greek Zenodotus of Ephesus, philologist and poet, commentator on Homer), which existed in ancient Alexandria. Naturally, he was given access to the works of his compatriots, and those who lived before them.

It was access to numerous materials that prompted the ancient scientist to create a generalized geographical treatise. The question of what Eratosthenes did for geography can be briefly answered as follows: he rewrote the data on all the inhabited lands of his era. At the same time, Eratosthenes relied only on factual material, confirmed by papyri and other sources of knowledge.


Eratosthenes of Cyrene ()

Thanks to his work for many centuries, Eratosthenes became the one who discovered geography as a science. The reason is not only that he came up with a new name for his offspring. The living mind of the scientist snatched from the studied descriptions important facts and for the first time formulated causal relationships that are still relevant. Therefore, it is not for nothing that Eratosthenes is considered the “father” of geography.

First of all, we need to understand what contribution Eratosthenes made to geography, why he was remembered by his contemporaries the most, and how it turned out that it was his conclusions that have come down to our time almost unchanged.

  • Eratosthenes is credited with the "birth" of the concept of "climatic zones of the Earth." He was able to mathematically accurately explain the boundaries between them, which are still similar to modern views on the equator, the tropics and the polar circles, only he called them a little differently.
  • He is also a pioneer in map making. His cartographic work, which has come down to our days, is a map of the Oikumene. He transferred all up-to-date information about new lands, obtained thanks to the military expeditions of Alexander the Great and his followers. Its main advantages: quite predictable contours of land and seas on a significant segment of the earth's surface, with the possibility of real calculation of distances. In search of his "paradise" - amazing India - Columbus considered the map of Eratosthenes to be the standard. He planned his journey along it, proving the relative proximity of the search object, if you move from the European coast in a westerly direction.
  • Eratosthenes calculated the circumference of the earth at the equator (40 thousand km), "missing" only 200 km. And this is such a trifle, given what the great Greek scientist who lived 22 centuries ago, far from calculators and modern smartphones, used for his measurements and conclusions.


Map of Eratosthenes - Inhabited Ecumene ()

The conclusions of Eratosthenes helped to further form the criteria by which the main subject of close study of the new discipline was determined. In this case, the "terrestrial surface" is what physical geography studies from ancient times to the present day. Eratosthenes turned out to be not only an outstanding analyst of antiquity, but also a real scientist who influenced the development of the science of geography for the next millennia.

The role, significance and place of geography in the economic activity of mankind

Speaking about the role of geography as a whole, we must remember that its essence has not changed much. After all, it is not without reason that the question: “Why is geography called an ancient science?” — is considered appropriate to this day. Modern man, armed with knowledge and the latest technologies, is doing the same as the most ancient man: he describes and studies the surface of the earth and its changes, displaying it in a form accessible to him. Unlike our distant ancestors, who left their knowledge of the world around them in the form of primitive charcoal drawings on the walls of their native cave, a person has a wider range of tools and devices at his disposal. With their help, he describes a new phenomenon and fixes it with various methods: graphic, in the form of a text file, 3D format, telemetry, etc.


Weather station Vladivostok, Russia)

The initial accumulation of geographical knowledge, oddly enough, was facilitated by internecine and aggressive wars. From here begins the countdown, how old is the science of geography. Since ancient times, the conquered lands were inhabited by the families of the winners, nationalities mixed, trade grew, and with it the demand for exotic goods and spices.

Ancient Egypt, as the most prosperous and powerful region, equipped military companies in the central part of the African continent, along the coasts of the Red Sea and the Mediterranean as early as the beginning of the 3rd century BC. Accordingly, the horizons of people expanded. Knowledge about the surrounding spaces accumulated and multiplied, skills in the field of using celestial bodies as the main landmarks, which facilitated the path of ancient travelers, progressed. Therefore, the role of geography in the life of society grew, since the success of farming and cattle breeding, for example, depended on correct knowledge. If people had not observed the flooding of rivers and other periodic natural phenomena every year, the ancient branches of the economy would not have been able to develop successfully. Thus, geography contributed to the emergence of ancient calendars and laid the foundations that explain the change of seasons.


The concept of the calendar)

At the same time, the forces and observations of the ancestors of modern Pakistanis discovered monsoon winds that affect agriculture and livestock in Southeast Asia. Geographical components are also present in ancient Indian treatises. For example, in the Vedas there is a whole chapter on the cosmology of that time, and in the Mahabharata there is a list of oceans, mountain systems and sacred rivers.

Summing up, we can say with confidence that at the beginning of its development, geography had a descriptive meaning. Wherever a person lived, he everywhere was engaged in the accumulation of knowledge, which was transmitted from generation to generation not only by the exchange personal experience, but also through the addition of poems, verses, philosophical works, etc.


Transfer and exchange of knowledge ()

The answer to the question, "What objects does geography study?" many-sided and many-sided. A few words can't cover it. Because the geographical shell in which a person lives is a complex structure in which all natural elements are closely interconnected. Breaking the links between them is easy, understanding and maintaining unchanged is much more difficult.

However, the specificity and multiplicity of research objects led to the fact that a single geographical discipline was divided into a number of narrowly focused branch branches. And now geography is a system of sciences!


System of Geographic Sciences ()

The main division concerned nature and economy. Therefore, geography in the system of geographical sciences is divided into two parts: physical and economic, studies the nature and laws of development of the world economy, respectively.

Recently, a third one has been singled out - social, since the era of global geographical discoveries has already ended, and the study of the living conditions and activities of the planet's population as part of nature is still going on.

There is also an unofficial division in which geographical cartography is distinguished separately from these three branches.

However, this is not the limit of separation. The questions in each part of geography are so voluminous that each industry group is further subdivided, resembling a tree with branches. For example, physical geography is divided into three subgroups that analyze different subjects of study.

  • Geography - tracks the features of the geographic shell.
  • Landscape science - considers the diversity of natural-territorial complexes.
  • Paleogeography - tells about the physical and geographical conditions of the earth's geological past.

These scientific disciplines are also voluminous, therefore they have their own hierarchy according to the types of objects studied. They can unite in a common alliance, studying one element of the geographical shell, but from different angles. Thus, in particular, the alliance for the study of water bodies is divided into the following science categories:

  • about climate (climatology);
  • about weather conditions (meteorology);
  • about the relief (geomorphology);
  • about the oceans (oceanology);
  • about ice (glaciology);
  • about natural waters (hydrology).


Geography Tree ()

Depending on the depth of research and the number of subjects of study, these sciences are further divided. For example, hydrology studies water in all its diversity, but water is not only rain and snow. There are many water bodies on the planet that require more detailed study. This is how limnology arose, studying the lakes of the planet and their features, swamp science, where the subject of close attention of geographers is already clear from the name, etc. Such fragmentation is necessary in order to successfully solve the problems of the modern science of geography.

Various types of soils and living organisms are “sorted out”:

  • Soil geography.
  • Biogeography.

The development of technological progress during the 20th century showed how geography is related to other sciences. New geographical teachings began to appear, emerging at the junction of contact with other independent non-geographical disciplines. So, for example, geography appeared:

  • medical;
  • ecological;
  • engineering;
  • socio-economic;
  • cartographic, etc.

Having studied the geographical tree rich in branches, one can sum up why to study geography: the subject is so multifaceted that dozens of other disciplines are needed to understand what, how and why is happening on the planet in general and around man in particular.


Diverse humanity ()

How has the specifics of the subject of study of geography changed from ancient times to the present?

Today it is amazing to think that the history of the development of geography as a science began in ancient times. To accumulate knowledge about the earth's surface and display them on maps and in descriptions, it took mankind millennia. Moreover, geography is a living science, and the cumulative process of knowledge continues to this day. It is enough for modern schoolchildren and students to open the atlas - and the whole world is before their eyes. Whereas their contemporaries, who lived more than two thousand years ago, were puzzled by the question: how far is the end of the earth from them.

For a long time, while geography was "growing up", until it received a full-fledged "certificate" - the title of an independent science, the main forms of research organization were formed and improved. Initially, these were hiking and horse-drawn trips and expeditions. Then they were replaced by complex observations at specially equipped stations (antarctic, arctic, high-mountain, deep-sea, mines). And the technical apogee of the 21st century is multi-complex research from space orbital stations that solve the problems of modern geography.

There are no white spots on the world map for a long time, but there are enough places in the world where the foot of a “white” person has not yet set foot, and there are enough such areas:

  • parts of inner Antarctica;
  • wilds of the Amazon;
  • highland region of Tibet;
  • the mountainous regions of the Cordillera, the Andes and the great Himalayas;
  • Russian vast Siberia and the Far East;
  • the central regions of Australia;
  • areas of the Great Deserts - Sahara, Gobi, etc.

The initial physical geography is the basis of all subsequent knowledge of the earth's surface. The structure of the course is represented by 4 headings, after studying which it will become clear what modern geography is studying:

  1. The earth's surface in a planar outline.
  2. Shells of the planet: litho, atmo, hydro, bio.
  3. Humanity as an object of study.
  4. Interaction between nature and man.

The results of studying these topics will be new knowledge about:

  • how to use the image of the Earth on plans and maps and determine the "addresses" of geographical objects;
  • how to generalize the received “baggage of knowledge”;
  • how to correctly describe the processes taking place in the 4 main geographical shells of the plan.

The process of studying primary physical geography gives rise to the education of geographical culture, understanding the specific language of science, the ability to independently seek answers to questions using numerous resources of a geographical orientation.

The elementary geography course is the first school geography course.

The initial course of geography is quite stable, the study of geography at school begins with it. Its structure includes continuity between courses, which ensures dynamism in the development, expansion and deepening of students' knowledge and skills, in the development of their geographical thinking, independence in acquiring new knowledge.

When studying it, students must learn the basic general subject concepts about geographical objects, phenomena, as well as at the elementary level of knowledge about the earth's shells. In addition, students acquire a topographer - cartographic knowledge and generalized techniques. academic work on the ground as well as in the classroom.

It should be noted that it is during the study of this course that the formation of a geographical culture and the teaching of a geographical language begin; studying it, schoolchildren master the initial ideas, concepts, cause-and-effect relationships, as well as skills related to the use of sources of geographical information, primarily maps. Much attention is paid to the study of one's area in order to accumulate ideas (knowledge) that will be used in the future.

Working programm specifies the content of blocks of the educational standard, gives the distribution of teaching hours for major sections of the course and the sequence of their study.

In addition, the program contains a list of practical work for each section.

Goals. The study of geography in primary school is aimed at achieving the following goals:

learning about the basic geographical concepts, geographical features of nature; about the environment, ways of its conservation and rational use;

mastery of skills navigate the terrain; use one of the "languages" of international communication - a geographical map, apply geographical knowledge to explain and evaluate various phenomena and processes;

development cognitive interests, intellectual and creative abilities in the process of observing the state of the environment, solving geographical problems, independently acquiring new knowledge;

upbringing love for one's locality, one's region, one's country, mutual understanding with other nations; ecological culture, positive attitude to the environment;

capacity building and readiness to the use of geographical knowledge and skills in Everyday life, preservation of the environment and socially responsible behavior in it; self-assessment of the level of environmental safety as a sphere of life.

General educational skills, skills and methods of activity

When organizing the educational process in geography in the primary school, it is necessary to Special attention on the general educational value of the subject. The study of geography forms not only a certain system of subject knowledge and whole line special geographical skills, but also a set of general educational skills necessary for:

- knowledge and study of the environment; identification of causal relationships;

- comparison of objects, processes and phenomena; modeling and design;

- orientation on the ground, plan, map; in INTERNET resources, statistical materials;

- compliance with the norms of behavior in the environment; evaluating their activities in terms of moral, legal norms, aesthetic values.

Course objective:

lay the foundations for the geographical education of students.

Tasks, solved in this course, to achieve the goal, can be formulated as follows:

Show schoolchildren geography as a subject of study and convince students of the need and usefulness of studying it;

To attach to the terminological language of geography and form the first spatial representations of objects and phenomena occurring in the world around the child;

Introduce the map as a unique and visual source of knowledge and learning tool;

To teach how to work with different teaching aids both in nature, on the ground, and in the classroom, laboratory;

And most importantly, to show schoolchildren that every person is part of the planetary natural complex "Earth" and everyone living on it is responsible for everything that he does in the world around him.

Formed competencies

  • (05.03.04 Hydrometeorology GPC3) Possession of basic general professional theoretical knowledge of the geographical shell, geomorphology with the basics of geology, biogeography, soil geography with the basics of soil science, landscape science, socio-economic geography;
  • (05.03.06 Ecology and nature management GIC3) Possession of professionally profiled knowledge and practical skills in general geology, theoretical and practical geography, general soil science and use them in the field of ecology and nature management;
  • (05.03.06 Ecology and nature management GIC5) Possession of knowledge of the basics of the doctrine of the atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere and landscape science.

The name of the science of geography is translated from ancient Greek like a land survey. At this stage, geography is a science that studies the description of the Earth and reveals the main patterns in its development.

  • Schoolchildren begin studying geography in the 6th grade, and continue to study it until the end of schooling.

In 6th grade students receive basic information and skills from the geography course, thereby laying a solid foundation for the subsequent study of the subject. The most important thing in the 6th grade is the skills of working with geographical maps and terrain plans.

7th grade devoted to the study of the features of the geography of continents and oceans. In addition, the main points studied in the initial course of geography are repeated.

8th and 9th grades completely devoted to the geography of Russia. Moreover, in the 8th grade the nature of our country is studied, and in the 9th grade - the social and economic geography of our country. Thus, using the example of Russia, schoolchildren learn the basics of socio-economic geography.

In 10th and 11th grade the socio-economic geography of the world is considered. And if the 10th grade is more devoted to studying the general picture of the world, then in the 11th grade the socio-economic characteristics of individual continents and large countries are considered in detail. Separately, it is worth highlighting the study in the 11th grade of the global problems of mankind.

  • It is worth noting that geography is one of the subjects for passing the elective exam, in the USE format.

All materials are divided into classes:

Geography Grade 6
Geography Grade 7
