Herein we describe the didactic sequence followed for the Licenciaturas en Geología y Paleontología at the Universidad Nacional de Río Negro in order to introduce first year students to the connections between life and the surrounding physical environment. For this, course contents were elaborated so as to integrate them with geological, paleontological and cartographic concepts together with academic reading and writing skills. Students were organized in groups and presented with the problem of elaborating a GIS, which was to include a vegetation map. This task entailed drawing knowledge from different areas of biology and relating it to the geology of the mapped area.
