Abstract

Regional geography plays an irreplaceable role in the development of Geography Curriculum in China. The development and change of regional geography is also the vane of geography education in China. This paper divides the development of regional geography curriculum into local chronicle period, embryonic period, imitation period, stagnation period, revitalization period and reform period according to the background, subject development and content setting of geography curriculum. From the local chronicles period to the embryonic period, “regional geography” was the initial system, and “regional geography” completely replaced the local chronicles. The period from imitation to cessation is the most distinctive political color. Regional geography has been declining from full imitation of the Soviet Union to full scale. After four adjustments of the geographical outline, regional geography formed a revitalization period with junior middle school as the main pattern and senior high school as the supplement pattern. In the 21st century, China’s education has entered the eighth curriculum reform in an all-round way. Compulsory geography education and high school geography education have changed from syllabus to curriculum standard, and then into a comprehensive reform period. It has formed a compulsory pattern for both junior and senior high schools.
