Abstract

One of the solutions for modernization of education can be an integration of new technologies into classrooms in order to provide teachers with tools for application of acquired knowledge in everyday life. Information and communication technologies (ICT) are from this aspect a very good assistant of the modern teacher. If we combine ICT and geographical information, we bring a wide range of possibilities of applying theoretical knowledge in practical situations. There are many ways of how to connect ICT and spatial information. One of them is the use of geoinformation technologies in education. The aim of the paper is the analysis and assessment of the current state of using geoinformation technologies in secondary schools on the example of the Nitra Self-governing Region which was researched via questionnaire survey.
