REYES NUNEZ, José Jesús. School atlases for the geographical education of children and young people. Rev. cartogr. [online]. 2020, n.100, pp.95-115.  Epub 14-Mar-2022. ISSN 2663-3981.  https://doi.org/10.35424/rcarto.i100.675.

The main aim of this article is to present concisely the beginning and development of school atlases from the 18th century to the present day. After defining the school atlases, those tasks that are faced during the edition of atlases of this type are briefly presented, as well as some examples. In essence, the stages of creating a school atlas have not changed markedly, changing only the medium in which they are published. We can witness how they developed from paper-printed editions first to electronic media (CD) and currently to the web. Ideas are also given on the options that applications made for mobile devices can offer and what new research is done to diversify and optimize the use of school atlases in the future.
