Lecture+ delivered by Daryl Sinclair at the GA conference 2026 in Sheffield. This lecture+ explores the critical need to revisit how frameworks are used in geography teaching, emphasizing their power to limit student thinking and perpetuate stereotypes. Daryl Sinclair shares an in-depth exploration of what frameworks are as a cognitive tool in education, providing real life examples of where our application of frameworks has impacted the futures of people ranging from students during 2020, through to LATAM countries forced to follow Rostow's five stages of development. Daryl concludes with practical strategies based in anti-racist pedagogies to rethink our engagement with frameworks and ensure that they support inclusive, complex, and hopeful futures.
