Box 14665-889, Tehran, Iran 0000-0002-4221-7107 Journal Article 2026 01 18 <strong>Subject: </strong>The purpose of this research is to explain the philosophical implementation of research and education simultaneously in teaching geography. <strong>Research Method: </strong>This study is fundamental research that uses a descriptive-analytical method and is based on collecting data through library and documentary-based research. This research uses philosophical thoughts, experimental backgrounds, teaching experiences, and theoretical articles and documents. <strong>Findings and Results: </strong>The findings indicate that in geography education, the philosophical foundations of geographical thoughts are not well explained to learners. This is because the use of research alongside geography education is very fragmentary. It is necessary to use political philosophies, political economy, and social theories derived from exploratory methods, which are now the elements of modern geography knowledge, as well as using analyses of geographical schools and transferring them to the new generation with appropriate research approaches. <strong>Subject: </strong>The purpose of this research is to explain the philosophical implementation of research and education simultaneously in teaching geography. <strong>Research Method: </strong>This study is fundamental research that uses a descriptive-analytical method and is based on collecting data through library and documentary-based research.
