Abstract: The new technologies have become indispensable in the students' lives, influencing their development at academic and personal levels. It is evident that their use in education is going to change the way of teaching, learning and assessment. Geography lessons are much more interactive when new technologies are integrated into the curriculum. In this article we describe a study regarding the integration of the new technologies in geography lessons. At the study 250 people - 73 teachers and 177 students, from schools and high schools in Romania, both rural and urban areas participated. The research is based on the application of questionnaires and interviews to teachers as well as to students from different schools. As a result of this research, it was concluded that the use of new technologies in geography lessons is important because it helps the formation and consolidation of the knowledge of the children; students understand the information more quickly and easily; lessons are interactive and students' motivation for learning is higher.
