地理学思想史是地理学专业本科生学习的必要内容。尽管中西方文化和教育背景不同，但课文教学、学生陈述和小组学习等教学方法适合大多数教师和来自不同国家和地区的学生。混合教学法有助于地理思想史的普及和提高地理学的教与学水平。针对我国等国家地理思想史课程的缺失，尝试在地理学本科一年级学生中采用混合式教学方法，并通过问卷调查对该教学方法的效果进行了评价。学生们对这门课有不同的收获和反应。本研究由一名教师和多名本科生组成的专门小组，通过对67名人文地理学和地理科学（师范）专业新生进行问卷调查、访谈和资料分析，进行了研究和合作。地理思想史是一门必修课，对于中国等国家的大学生来说，是一门很有意义的课程。
It is necessary for undergraduates majoring in geography to learn the history of geographic thought. Although there are different cultural and educational backgrounds between China and the West, teaching methods such as text teaching, students’ presentations and group learning are suitable for most of teachers and students even from different countries and regions. The blended method is helpful to popularize history of geographic thought and improve the level of teaching and learning. Owing to lack of the class on the history of geographic thought in countries like China, the authors try to explore a blended method for the first-year geography undergraduates and to assess the effects of this teaching based on some questionnaires. The students have different benefits and responses to this class. A special group consisting of one teacher and several undergraduates does the research and coauthors the paper through making questionnaire, interviewing and analyzing materials from 67 freshmen majoring in human geography and geography science (teacher-training) in China. For the undergraduates especially from the countries like China, it is well worth making the history of geographic thought become a necessary and interesting class.
