Abstract
To consolidate the knowledge curriculum of thematic Block of the 4th year of Biology and Geology of the Spanish Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (E.S.O.), related with the ecosystems, we have developed a teaching methodology based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The students aim is to make a shapefile with space attributes and ecological information about the National Parks of Spain by its digitalization. We have given an example of Doñana National Park (Andalucia). Through the use of GIS and a kind of software with no additional charge to the school, student interactivity with the subject is increased, creativity is developed and their ability to understand space is improved. These skills are very useful for the teaching-learning process
