Abstract

Geographical structure and geographical function are dialectically unified in logical connection, which is specifi cally embodied in the diff erentiation law of“distinction-diff erentiation”, the unity law of“connection-restriction”, and the mutual feedback law of“action-feedback”. Based on the logical connection between the two, geography teachers can apply the comparative method to analyze“same structure with different functions”, adopt the simulation method to explore“same function with different structures”, integrate the analogical method to interpret“same structure with identical functions”, and rely on the optimization method to achieve“collaborative evolution”. Meanwhile, teachers should attend to teaching precautions including the cultivation of disciplinary thinking, gradient articulation of learning stages, and implementation of practical activities, so as to help students realize the coordinated development of their geographical thinking literacy and geographical action ability.
