National Council for Geographic Education
The National Council for Geographic Education (NCGE) is a non-profit scientific and educational society, chartered in 1915 to enhance the status and quality of geography teaching and learning. NCGE supports geography education at all levels— through formal and informal education, in primary education, secondary education, community college, and university settings. NCGE promotes and supports geography teaching, enhances the preparation of geography education with respect to knowledge of content, techniques, and learning processes, facilitates communication and professional development among teachers of geography, encourages and supports research on geography education, develops, publishes, and promotes the use of exemplary curricular resources and other learning materials, recognizes exceptional instructors of geography, and collaborates with other organizations that have similar goals.
Members of NCGE include U.S. and International teachers, professors, students, curriculum developers, policymakers, administrators, professional geographers and others who support geography education. These members work in schools, community colleges, universities, nonprofit organizations, local, state, tribal, national, and international government agencies, and in private industry.
== History ==
The National Council for Geographic Education was started by George J Miller, of the State Normal School in Mankato, Minnesota, to fill a gap in the field of geographic education. The idea gained support nationally and the first meeting of the organization was held on December 31, 1915.
Originally called the National Council for Geography Teachers (NCGT), the purpose was to "increase the effectiveness of geography teaching in America; (a) by promotion of national education movements; (b) by cooperating in the organization and development of state associations; and (c) in such other ways as the officers may from time to time determine.” While NCGE is no longer organized as it was originally, the basic purpose has not changed. In 1956, the NCGT changed their name to the National Council for Geographic Education to reflect the idea that not all education concerns occur in the classroom.〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=http://lib.mnsu.edu/archives/fa/msu/msu301.html )〕
