Abstract
Since the reform and opening up, the curriculum reform of basic education in China has gone through an
evolutionary process from "basic knowledge and basic skills" and "three-dimensional objectives" to "core literacy", and the
teaching mode has shifted from "knowledge transmission" and "inquiry-based teaching" to "disciplinary practice", which
emphasizes promoting the in-depth transformation of education methods in the literacy era through "disciplinary practice". As
an innovative education method that integrates disciplinary typicality, practical systematicness, educational and instructional
nature, and communicative collaboration, "geography disciplinary practice" guides practice with geographical thinking
and refines geographical thinking in practice. As a macroscopic educational methodology, it has diverse implementation
approaches, including geography practice in a broad sense, geography disciplinary practice in the sense of curriculum and
instruction, and geography disciplinary practice explicitly proposed in the curriculum standards. The eff ective implementation
of geography disciplinary practice requires well-structured design of "discipline-practice", the formation of a systematic closed
loop of "practice-refl ection", the promotion of appropriate transformation of "discipline-learning", and the construction of a
tripartite interactive community of "teachers-technology-students".
