Abstract

This working paper discusses our initiative to explore the possibility of harnessing drones as an inquiry-based learning tool in geography education for supporting outdoor fieldwork. In particular, we focus on delineating (i) the rationale behind this initiative, and (ii) the direction of how to adopt drones in geography learning and teaching based on the high-school context in Hong Kong.
