Abstract
The topic of education and interpretation is one of the fundamental strategies in the development of geotourism. This research aimed to analyze interpretation and education methods and tools in geotourism and assess their impacts, and given the multitude of international studies in this field, a systematic literature review approach was used to achieve this goal. Articles published in the Scopus database from 2004 to 2026 that were related to interpretation and education in geotourism were extracted and screened and pruned using the PRISMA framework, ultimately leading to the selection of 23 articles for final analysis. The results indicate that interpretation methods were a combination of physical and digital methods and interpretation centers, but in terms of scientific simplification, appeal, and attention to sustainability, they did not have much quality. However, they had positive impacts on increasing tourists' knowledge and the subject of conservation.
