“…Field learning can integrate habits and processes of critical thinking and spatial thinking [12]. The concept of geographic field skills can develop information literacy which consists of important aspects in the context of geographical areas [13]. The spatial thinking dimension includes elements of both low-level spatial cognition, and high-level spatial reasoning.…”

Open space offers opportunities that are not found indoors in the learning process. The physical environment contributes to students’ learning by exploring their abilities. This requires the world community to be aware of the location, understand the relationship between locations, cause-effect (analysis), and the consequences caused internally and externally. The need for a comprehensive geographic study model is needed, so that it can show the public a geographical solution to certain environmental problems. Geography Education field laboratory can be used as a support for learning in the classroom. The method of zoning for the analysis of needs for field laboratory studies in the Mount Galunggung area is carried out by identifying needs, by referring to the learning outcome program and course learning. Types of integrated laboratories located in faculty or university study centers, or technical implementing units that provide education and / or training with supporting equipment for categories I, II, and III, and managed materials are general and special category materials to serve research activities, and community service, students and lecturers. Based on the results of field surveys and satellite image analysis which refers to suitability indicators for the development of potential Geography education field laboratories, the Gunung Galunggung area has 5 stations/ zones to be used as a Geography Education Field Laboratory.

“…Sinton (2017) argues that outdoor learning (in the field) can combine processes of spatial and critical thinking. The combination of both can be instilled with geographic skills, so that information literacy which is an important aspect in a geographic context can be obtained by students (Hulseberg & Versluis, 2017). Open space in the context of spatial thinking is what makes geography has unique characteristics in the object of study.…”

Purpose of the study: This study aimed to analyze the needs of the field laboratory for geography education which functions as an outdoor learning medium. Methodology: The method applied in this study was descriptive qualitative research using three stages, namely preliminary needs analysis studies, field analysis studies through observation and satellite image overlay, and field function analysis for learning purposes. Main Findings: The results indicated that the open space (environment) can function as a laboratory that can be used for teaching and learning, research, and community services. In addition, critical thinking skills that can be developed in the field laboratory for geography education included analytical skills, synthetical skills, identifying and problem-solving skills, concluding skills, and evaluating or assessing skills. Applications of this study: This study provides geography teachers with information to develop a field laboratory as a learning resource. Novelty: There are very few studies that examine field laboratories, whereas field laboratories are indispensable to develop students’ critical thinking skills.
