“…Like the New Zealand earthquakes of 2010, the pandemic has revealed opportunities for communities to be "new spaces of learning" (Pawson 2016), where students' research on local pandemic-linked socioenvironmental disruptions can inform planning for recovery of community well-being. It is well documented that geography students and communities benefit from work in the community (Jurmu 2015;Kim 2018). Encourage students to learn independently from faculty.…”

and colleges worldwide have quickly moved campus-based classes to virtual spaces due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This article explores the impact of this sudden transition of learning and teaching based on experiences and evidence from six institutions across three countries. Our findings suggest that although online and remote learning was a satisfactory experience for some students, various inequities were involved. Many students lacked appropriate devices for practical work and encountered difficulties in securing suitable housing and workspace. Students were stressed, and faculty were, too, especially those in precarious employment. The lack of fieldwork and access to laboratories created special challenges. We are concerned that the lack of hands-on experience could cause a decline in enrollments and the number of majors in geography over the next few years. This issue must be addressed by making introductory courses as engaging as possible. It is too early to determine the extent to which online and remote learning can replace campus-based, face-toface geography education once the pandemic ends, but the new academic year of 2020-2021 will be revealing. Nevertheless, the COVID-19 crisis has revealed preexisting problems and inequalities that will need our collective effort to address, regardless of the pandemic's trajectory.

“…Users can pan and zoom to explore spatial data such as those presented in the figures of this study via tile packages hosted remotely or locally saved to users’ Apple iOS and iPadOS devices. The ability to easily incorporate and interact with large satellite imagery datasets has been of great benefit to the Arequipa Nexus Institute during conversations with stakeholders in the field, research planning meetings, formal training workshops, and has greatly enhanced engagement and project‐based participation in knowledge co‐production and capacity building (Duncan, Kyle, and Race 2010; Sletto et al 2010; Canevari‐Luzardo et al 2015; Kar et al 2016; Wachowiak et al 2017; Kim 2018; Onencan, Meesters, and Van de Walle 2018). Recent field research activities, pairing the use of historic and contemporary satellite imagery in the field with data collection applications like Epicollect (Aanensen et al 2009) and LandPKS (Herrick et al 2016), have been very successful.…”

Analysis of historic and contemporary high‐resolution imagery can help to fill knowledge gaps in land cover and management history in locations where documentation is non‐existent or records are difficult to access. Historic imagery dating back to the 1960s can be used to structure quantitative investigation and mapping of land use and land cover change across space and time to enhance earth science, policy, and social science research. Imagery can further inform municipal planning and implementation in areas of natural resource allocation, infrastructure, and hazard mitigation. For management and public education, historic imagery can help people to understand environmental processes and the impacts of human activity in the local environment. Here we emphasize the value of high‐resolution historic satellite imagery from the Corona and Keyhole satellite programs to inform environmental research, public education, and environmental management. Within the Region of Arequipa in southern Peru we highlight examples of urban development, agricultural expansion, river channelization, and glacial retreat via comparison of historic and modern satellite imagery. By incorporating these types of historic imagery data in formats accessible to non‐professionals, public engagement as well as research into human‐environmental investigations will be greatly enhanced.

“…In order to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the impact of the VPBL method and the CL course on the students, qualitative reflective journals analyses were incorporated in this study. The reflective journal was also used by other studies on PBL, being considered a valid and efficient evaluation method (Kim, 2017). A thematic content analysis was employed to examine the responses provided by the students in their reflective learning journals.…”

“…Students acknowledged the role of CL and VPBL in fostering the development of various skills essential for their future endeavors. Specifically, they recognized the importance of communication (Han et al, 2016), teamwork, cultural understanding (similar to Shadiev et al, 2015), and critical thinking (similar to Kim, 2017) as skills that were enhanced through their participation in the CL course. The second theme focused on CL as an opportunity for personal development.…”
