Abstract

This article presents an actual teaching experience in a high school class in the town of General Ramírez, Argentina in which satellite images and aerial photographs were used as texts for the conceptualization of geographic content, using the images to discuss the possibilities and limits of urban space. By sharing this experience, the article aims to encourage other teachers to consider the use of such images to motivate students to learn disciplinary content.
