Abstract

A nationwide survey was conducted to examine the perceptions of geography educators regarding students' college readiness for geography. A total of 260 high school teachers and 93 professors who teach introductory human or world regional geography in the United States participated in the survey. Significant differences were found between the professors and the teachers in their perceptions on the relative importance of college readiness goals and the profi- ciency of their students. It was concluded that college readiness for geography is hindered due to both the different curri- cular priorities and perceptions on stu- dents' prior knowledge held by profes- sors and teachers.
