USING DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES IN GEOGRAPHY LESSONS

Abstract

Modern digital platforms and online tools bring a new dynamic to the teaching of geography, increasing students' engagement and motivation. The main goal of this idea is to present geographical knowledge interactively through technology and create conditions for fast and effective information assimilation. With the help of various methods and platforms, students can acquire geography not only theoretically but also practically and through inquiry-based learning. Geographic maps, online research, virtual tours, and simulations expand students' horizons and boost their interest in the subject. The innovation of this pedagogical idea lies in integrating new technologies that enhance critical thinking and improve the efficiency of the learning process. Through these methods, students develop independent research skills and learn to apply geographical phenomena in real-life contexts.
