摘要：In this paper we study a blended didactic approach that was implemented by Primary Schoolteachers in the field of Geography. The didactic approach aimed to implement a new trainingmethod and examine factors which affected collaboration between teachers. The cognitive areaused was geographic coordinates and map construction, as well the production of teachinglearningplans on the subject of instrument orientation for pupils. The approach includedlectures, web-based courses, fieldwork activities and investigation of parameters that affectcollaboration via asynchronous dialogues.The results showed that the blended didactic approach which we planned, tested andimplemented constitutes an innovative proposal for teacher training in Primary Education,relating to both knowledge improvement in the field of geographic coordinates and mapconstruction, as well as promoting active involvement and interaction among participants whichmay facilitate sustainable collaboration among in-service teachers.
