Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of integrating Google Earth Engine (GEE) into a STEM-based learning framework to enhance the spatial thinking skills of geography undergraduates. A quasi-experimental design involving 60 students was implemented, with one class assigned to the experimental group receiving GEE-integrated STEM instruction and the other to the control group receiving conventional instruction. Spatial thinking outcomes were measured using pretest–posttest cognitive assessments and four performance indicators: spatial representation, spatial relation, spatial analysis, and spatial application. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, normality and homogeneity tests, paired-sample t-tests, independent-sample t-tests, Cohen’s d effect size, and ANCOVA controlling for pretest scores. The results indicate that the experimental group achieved significantly higher posttest scores than the control group (t(58) = 10.24, p < 0.001), with a large effect size (d = 2.64). ANCOVA further confirmed the robustness of the treatment effect after adjusting for initial differences (F(1,57) = 101.99, p < 0.001). Indicator-level analysis also showed consistent improvement across all spatial thinking components. This study is limited by its single-institution context, quasi-experimental design, and potential novelty effects associated with geospatial technology integration. Future research should involve larger and more diverse samples to validate these findings.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the process of the assuro maca tradition of the Labakkang sub-district community, Pangkep district. The process in this case includes the history of the beginning of the assuro maca tradition, the development of the Assuro maca tradition and the continuation of the Assuro maca tradition. This type of research is qualitative descriptive research. Data collection methods are through interviews, participatory observation and documentation in obtaining primary data to be used as research results which are supported by secondary data sourced from studies of scientific literature. The data analysis techniques used are data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The research results show that the beginning of the assuro maca tradition began when Islam entered the archipelago. The development of the assuro maca tradition, in the past, its implementation was carried out in a large house which was usually called Arajang, but as time progressed, people now had private homes that were capable of doing so, so the implementation of the assuro maca tradition was carried out in their own homes. The potential for the assuro maca tradition is very large due to the values of brotherhood and togetherness inherent in this tradition.

Abstract

Enhancing the quality of education can be achieved by incorporating This study aims to be able to find out the potential contained in galesong beach beach tourism objects and the strategy of developing galesong beach attractions in Tamalate Village, North Galesong District, Takalar Regency. This type of research is mixed methods research, meaning research that can produce descriptive and statistical data both in written and oral form. The subjects of the study, the owners and managers of galesong beach tourism, the local community and the visitors. The data analysis involves SWOT analysis, which is used to assess both the internal strengths and weaknesses and the external opportunities and threats related to the development of Galesong Beach as a tourist destination. Data analysis techniques use SWOT analysis. The results indicate that Galesong Beach has a ‘worth visiting’ rating, with an evaluation score of 76.25%. This high score is attributed to the supporting elements of the destination, such as adequate accommodation, accessibility, facilities, and infrastructure, all of which enhance its attractiveness to tourists. The SWOT analysis places the Galesong Beach development strategy in Quadrant I, suggesting a Rapid Growth Strategy. This positioning indicates that Galesong Beach should focus on strategies to accelerate visitor growth, leveraging its strengths to capitalize on opportunities for rapid expansion. That is, Galesong Beach attractions are in a strategy to increase the growth rate of tourist visitors by using faster time.

Abstract

This study evaluates the effectiveness of the inquiry learning model supported by augmented reality (AR) media in enhancing geography learning outcomes among tenth-grade students at UPT SMAN 11 Sinjai. The research employs a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design conducted over two cycles, involving 28 students. Data were collected through tests and observations and analyzed using a descriptive approach. The results indicate a significant improvement in student learning outcomes, with the average score increasing from 59 in Cycle I to 76 in Cycle II. This improvement suggests that the combination of inquiry learning and AR media effectively enhances students' understanding of complex geographical concepts, particularly volcanism and its impact on life. The study underscores the potential of AR-supported inquiry learning in fostering greater student engagement and critical thinking skills. Future research could further explore the broader application of this approach across different subjects and educational contexts.

Abstract

This study maps the structure of place-based environmental knowledge among shallot (Allium cepa L. var. aggregatum) farmers in Bubun Lamba Village, Enrekang Regency, Indonesia, and derives design principles for place-based geography learning. A descriptive quantitative survey was administered to 36 active shallot cultivators, using a 22-item instrument covering eleven agro-environmental domains, complemented by semi-structured interviews. Self-assessed knowledge was uniformly strong in procedural, directly observable domains, fertilisation (M = 9.6), harvesting (M = 9.5), and irrigation (M = 9.0), but markedly weaker in the edaphic domain (M = 5.0), the only domain whose key variables (pH, nutrient availability) are latent and instrument-dependent. Interview data show that farmers substitute a temporal heuristic, liming after four to five consecutive cropping cycles, for direct measurement of soil acidity. We interpret this distribution as an observability gradient: informally acquired environmental knowledge is robust where phenomena are visible and feedback is rapid, and attenuates sharply where phenomena are latent and feedback is delayed. This gradient functions as a diagnostic map for learning design: place-based geography education should not rehearse what communities already master through practice, but should target latent domains by making invisible processes perceptible through instrumentation, visualisation, and modelling. Implications for community geo-education, contextual school curriculum materials on the pedosphere and food security, and teacher fieldwork design are discussed.
