Abstract

Spatial intelligence is
essential for geography education students for identifying geosphere phenomena. This
research to measure spatial intelligence and the effectiveness of the
application of outdoor learning in geography education students. This research
is a pre-experimental study with a pretest-posttest one group design. The form
of field learning activities in the form of camps and a series of practical
activities. Before the student activity will present a pre-test which has the
same weight as the final test given the end of the activity. Data collection
techniques use tests, as well as observations for conformity between design and
action. Spatial intelligence test instruments will test for validity,
reliability and different. The test format is designed using geographic spatial
intelligence references. Data analysis through
homogeneity, normality and hypothesis testing using the t-test. Hypothesis
testing results show that H₀ is rejected and H₁ is accepted, which is
indicated by the results of t_count = 1.7108> t_table
0.492 with a significance level of 5%. Research conclusion there is student’s spatial intelligence increase through
outdoor learning activities.
