Abstract

A positive perception of the geography subject is crucial for students' academic success and their interest in learning. The identification of students' perceptions of subjects has been carried out in many educational curricula.  However, it is rarely studied in Bhutan. This study explores the students' performance in middle and higher secondary school and their academic performance in Dagana Dzongkhag (district). To study the students' perceptions of learning geography, the data were collected from key stages IV and V students using a convergent parallel mixed-methods design from four schools. A total of 282 students, comprising 181 from key stage IV and 101 from key stage V were selected from two middle secondary and two higher secondary schools. The quantitative data were obtained using a survey questionnaire, and the qualitative data were collected from four FGDs (focus group discussions). The findings revealed that the students have positive perceptions of learning geography, irrespective of their stages. There is a significant difference in students' perception of learning geography between key stages IV and V. The students of key stage V have a comparatively positive perception compared to those in key stage IV. It is evident from this study that students' perceptions towards the subject would also impact their academic performance. Therefore, to address the research findings, this study recommends the district education office and school management to prioritize geography education and establish proper mechanism to support it through relevant authorities. The study has also opened the way forward for future researchers to explore similar research with a larger population.

Abstract

21st-century learning has encouraged more interactive learning. The use of technological media in geography learning continues to be developed. However, the development of 3D view virtual exploration media is still rarely carried out. This research discusses virtual exploration of 3D view which can carry out direct 3-dimensional interactions to give students a better impression in learning geography. This research aims to provide innovation in developing Virtual Exploration as a learning media to support 21st-century learning in realizing environment-based learning. The research method used is R and D with the ADDIE model consisting of Analyst, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The Development Phase is carried out in accordance with the research objectives. Data was collected using a mixed questionnaire consisting of (1) a closed questionnaire in the form of an answer checklist and (2) an open questionnaire in the form of direct answers from respondents. The data analysis technique used is the results of initial analysis data, data from material and media validity tests as well as student and teacher response data to the media. The media validation results were carried out by material experts with a percentage value of 90.50%, media experts at 84.5%, and geography teachers at 91.50%. The average student response from the media was 88.65%. Thus, the 3D view virtual exploration learning media on the sub-terrestrial hydrosphere material of the Konto watershed has the potential to be an effective learning tool in schools and gets a very positive response from students.
