An educational assistance tool called “gittok” is developed for students in higher education. It is all-in-one software with texts and slides. Students can study fundamental knowledge of Geospatial Information Technology (GIT) based on its Body of Knowledge (BoK) and the Geographic Information Standards such as those provided by ISO/TC 211. Gittok includes an application schema designer called Modeler. It allows students to acquire and edit geospatial data directly in compliance with the application schema. They can overview and experience spatial analysis, XML data exchange, geo-library, and map design. Teachers can refer to texts and slides included in gittok and may modify the source code to be suitable for their own lectures. Therefore, gittok will be a useful tool for introductory courses on GIT education.
