Abstract

This study examines the application of photovoice as a pedagogical tool in a geography class. The main stages of photovoice were modified to suit the context for learning about a geographical issue, animal rights in relation to street cats in South Korea. Data were collected, and grounded theory was applied for the analysis. Based on the results, the paper discusses the implications of photovoice as a pedagogical tool for helping student learn geography by studying place/community as well as engaging in active learning and citizenship, authentic learning and assessment, and social justice and change in a critical geographic context.
