  Abstract:  By the end of the seventies, Geology had become for the first time in Spain, a separate subject to be taught to 17 year old students in their final year before university. It was an optional subject, but it offered young students the opportunity to deepen their geological knowledge, since most areas of geological knowledge were covered by the curriculum. In our country this was considered to be a great advance in comparison with the previous situation. The fact that most (maybe around 80%) of teachers involved in teaching this subject were biologists by educational background encouraged a small group of enthusiastic geology teachers to organise the first “Symposium on Geology Teaching” in Madrid in 1980.

Keywords: geology teaching, symposia, cooperation, publications.
