The aim of this study is to determine Turkish middle school students’ opinions related to using of GIS in the teaching process. There were 273 middle school students (6th, 7th and 8th grade) surveyed in this research. The GIS attitudes test used in the study was prepared by the researcher. According to the research results, Turkish middle schools students’ opinions related to motivation to use GIS and the use of GIS in the teaching process were positive. They also stated that they didn’t have any significant learning difficulties with GIS. In conclusion the results were interpreted that GIS would be an appropriate tool for teaching some subject matter or curriculum content in the middle school in Turkey.
