【 摘 要 】

Since the use of mobile GIS-applications in the formation of tourist and local lore competencies of students affects the knowledge and professional competence of future teachers, it is very important to first determine the attitude of teachers and professors to the use of mobile GIS-applications and assess the level of use of mobile applications by students. Therefore, this article provides for the possibility of using mobile GIS applications in the organization of tourist and local lore activities of students of the educational program "Geography". The effectiveness of organizing tourist and local lore events using mobile GIS applications was determined by conducting interviews and questionnaires. The survey consisted of two parts, and a total of 72 students took part in it voluntarily. In the course of the study, we studied the formation of tourist and local lore competencies from mobile GIS applications as a result of the study: 1) "Road navigation" from mobile GIS applications - 2GIS (79.1%); 2) "For viewing and studying" from mobile applications - ArcGIS QuickCapture (56.9%); 3) Google planet Earth "Virtual globe" (52.8%); 4) based on the mobile applications "Cartography and Navigation", we determined the efficiency of using the GIS4MOBILE-x (41.7%) and 5) the City bus for "GPS monitoring" (100%). In this regard, we are confident that the use of these mobile applications will be effective in organizing tourist and local lore events. The use of these technologies in teaching makes it possible to update educational approaches, introduce new pedagogical technologies and form competencies.
