"The geographer who is concerned with transmitting part of his knowlege to children in school, and concurrently with fostering in them certain desirable attitudes, must necessarily devote considerable thought to the presentation of his material. Unlike his counterpart in a university, the teacher in school has study methods almost as much as subject-matter, and for this reason he is usually interested in the experiences of other teachers which may assist him in the task.
One of the leading functions of the Geographical Association since its inception has been to serve as a medium for the exchange of this information".
