1001 U.S. Geography Trivia Q&A

By Mike McGuire
1001 U.S. Geography Trivia Q&A by Mike McGuire digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

The Geography Attitude as author Mike McGuire, The Map Man called it was explained in the Geography Literacy Report by The Gallup Poll in 1993, again by the U.S. Education Department in 1994, and in 2002 by The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) and The National Geographic-Roper 2002 Global Geographic Literacy Survey all stating how poorly American students did in testing for geography literacy. U.S. and World Geography is not taught as a core subject in our school systems here in America, but as a part of another subject, such as History or the English Language. So it is no wonder why American students and adults for that matter of fact are so poor in their understanding of the subject material of geography. This educational trend needs to be reversed because U.S. geography is so vital to our daily lives, global events and our culture. By using the common and popular method of Trivia Questions (Note the popular TV shows: Jeopardy, Who wants to be a Millionaire and The Weakest Link among others) this format was chosen to develop interest, fun in learning and respect for the educational value of geography. Lets first start by learning about the geography in our Homeland, The United States of America and then move on to World Geography later.

About Mike McGuire

Mike McGuire A.K.A. The Map Man The Map Store in Dublin, Ohio owned and managed by Mike McGuire for eleven years was a leading travel book & map retailer with over 10,000 different maps, charts and topographical maps; you just name it and they had a map for it. The Map Store carried an extensive selection of travel books & guides, world globes, all types of atlases, and just about anything that had to do with geography, from software to GPS to toys to placemats. However, the “lack of geography knowledge”, “geographic ignorance” and just plan apathy among young students for geography was prevalent every day, which lead to the publishing of this 1001 U.S. Geography Trivia and Fact Q & A book. Mike McGuire donated 50, 16” Replogle Edinburgh Globes to every high school, parochial school, career center and private school in Franklin County, Ohio the Columbus, Ohio area for the benefit of teaching geography.
