Abstract

This activity is designed to introduce students to the geography of the Caribbean by having them make their own mental maps of the region. It is based on the premise that beginning with a yardstick of one’s own knowledge can offer a challenge to students, prompt their curiosity, and provide a measure of their own accomplishment as study of the region progresses.
