Description
Summary:This article aims to analyse the characteristics of the journal called Didáctica Geográfica (Geography Didactics). Two clearly distinguished stages are seen since it started publishing. The first deals with the makeup of its management team and the purposes of this journal. In the second, research has focused on qualitative and quantitative matters. In particular, formal aspects have been considered; the authors’ characteristics, the nature of the contents, the iconography employed, presence of new technologies, etc. The purpose here is to provide a critical view of this journal for the purpose of reinforcing a means of encounter for Geography teachers and to diffuse educational research and innovation in the teaching of Geography.
