摘要:Educators continually seek new technologies to complement and enhance the student learning
experience. The use of technologies in the classroom promotes spatial awareness, important
across a number of disciplines. To better enable students to gain spatial awareness, higher
education educators creatively utilise geospatial technologies in the classroom to enhance
engagement and help visualise theoretical subject content. Teaching innovations and
integrating technologies into the classroom over the past decade adhere to changing
technological paradigms aimed at better engaging students in lectures and seminars to increase
their practical and applied understanding and make classes more interactive. This study is an
analysis of insight on approaches observed in academic literature. Three these themes emerged
and are articulated in this paper: classroom engagement, interactive spatial knowledge, and
practical skills acquisition. The first two are concerned with learning impacts in the classroom
whilst the third theme focuses on career impacts.
