The main content included the topic background, significance of this subject, research status and research design. This part is to pave the way for the content and framework of the following.The second part is the method of GIS getting into high-school geography.It introduced the method from the teaching content, teaching concept and teaching methods.The third part is about principles and objectives of designing GIS teaching case.Designing those cases follow certain principles.They include using the high school geography curriculum standard as the basis, making these cases as easy as possible, orienting towards constructive teaching,making the content more typical as far as possible and relying on the cognitive law of student. At the same time,the target of the cases is to enhance the professional quality of teachers and to improve the quality level of the students.The fourth part is the design of GIS teaching cases. Based on the whole grasp of the high school teaching content and Arcview software, this paper designed ten teaching case which are related to high school geography.The fifth part is the summary and reflection. To summarize and reflect the content of the article.
