An important challenge in organizing GIS and T education and training is the choice and use of effective teaching and learning methods. These methods should follow recent technological developments and use the best technologies to help students acquire the necessary skills and competencies. Traditionally, most GIS and T programs and courses were taught in the context of a full-time, face-to-face setting, using traditional teaching methods such as lectures and lab-based computer practical sessions. In recent years, educational institutions and their teachers have been experimenting with more innovative teaching and learning methods, such as project-based and case-based learning, distance learning, integrated and inter-disciplinary lessons, collaboration with companies and other stakeholders, etc.
