The Development of History Learning Media with Gis Web Based in Improving Real Understanding of Senior High School Students

Abstract

So far, history learning is still often considered monotonous, conventionally only presenting memorizing years, numbers, and historical figures so that it seems boring for students. In the digital era 5.0, teachers are required to be able to adapt to the development of learning technology by adjusting basic competencies in subjects with the hope that students are more interested and get a real understanding of historical material. The facts on the ground are that there are still many teachers who experience difficulties when they are required to master learning technology, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. On the other hand, history teachers are required to present a concrete understanding of history to students through online and digital media. This study seeks to answer these challenges by developing a WEB GIS-based learning media. With GIS technology, teachers and students can directly visit the location of the destination online. Thus, teachers and students do not need to be bothered to visit directly because of the many time constraints and busyness. In addition, through GIS technology, students get new references more easily and in more detail from the textbook they are holding. Thus, history learning becomes more interesting and students will gain a real understanding of the historical objects they study.
