Creating situations is one of the effective ways to stimulate students' interest in learning. By simulating the real geographical environment, students can feel the geographical knowledge in an immersive way, thus stimulating their interest in learning. For example, teachers can use maps, models and other teaching AIDS to make students understand geography more intuitively; Students can also experience the application of geographical knowledge in real life by organizing field trips, simulated trips and other activities.

Multimedia technology is one of the important means of modern teaching, which can enrich teaching means and improve teaching effect. In geography teaching, teachers can use multimedia technology to make courseware, show maps and play videos, so that students can understand geography knowledge more intuitively. At the same time, teachers can also use network resources to collect relevant materials and information to provide students with more comprehensive learning resources.
4, organize practical activities, enhance practical ability:
Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. In geography teaching, organizing practical activities can make students experience the application of geography knowledge in real life and enhance their practical ability. For example, teachers can organize students to carry out practical activities such as environmental protection activities and social surveys, so that students can have a deeper understanding of the application of geographical knowledge in real life. At the same time, teachers can also encourage students to participate in various geography competitions and activities to improve their interest and enthusiasm in learning.
5. Establish a good teacher-student relationship and create a harmonious atmosphere;
Good teacher-student relationship is one of the important factors to stimulate students' interest in learning.

By creating situations, using multimedia technology, organizing practical activities and establishing a good relationship between teachers and students, students' interest in learning can be effectively stimulated and their enthusiasm and initiative in learning can be improved. Therefore, in the future geography teaching, we should pay attention to the application and practical exploration of these methods in order to better promote the all-round development of students.
The benefits of studying geography:
1. broaden your horizons: geographical knowledge includes rich contents, such as physical geography, human geography and economic geography. By learning this knowledge, we can understand the natural phenomena such as topography, climate, vegetation and animals in various regions of the earth, as well as the human phenomena such as population, culture and economic development in various countries. This knowledge can give us a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the world, thus broadening our horizons and increasing our knowledge.
2. Understand the environment: Learning geography well can help us understand the whole face of the earth, the differences of natural landscapes around the world, the ethnic customs and beautiful rivers and mountains around the world, and help us solve some intractable natural phenomena. The study of geography will make us know more about the environment in which we live and help us adapt to it.
3. Survival skills: Mastering certain geographical knowledge is like mastering certain survival skills. Some people will be complacent and think that they know where the river is the longest, where the mountain is the highest and where the desert is the biggest. These practical knowledge about the world is valuable, which allows us to put current events in their proper spatial position. When we hear about an earthquake or an attack in Turkey, we can at least imagine where it happened. However, it is more important to know why they happened there.
