Abstract

Spatial thinking is the main feature of learning geography at school. Unfortunately, the skill was found lower from the learners since they had fewer exercises to work on questions that trained their spatial skill. Spatial thinking skill on mapping and image sensing has not focused on geographical aspects. A map and remote sensing imagery could be integrated into whole materials in spatial thinking skill test. This research aims to analyze the spatial thinking skill of students by using a map and remote sensing imagery in Public SHS 1 Bae Kudus. This research used qualitative research. The sampling technique was random sampling with an error level table score 5% from the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades of social major. All of them consisted of 186 learners. The analyzing techniques were validity, reliability, difference, and difficulty tests. Methods of collecting data were a test, interview, and observation. The used test in this research was an average completeness test from the material with minimum passing grade 70, which was then described. The findings of spatial thinking skill showed: 1) the X grade obtained the lowest average score of mapping application while the XII grade obtained the highest one; the percentage of psychomotor aspect completeness was higher than the cognitive aspect, 51%, b) the XII grade received higher imagery application score than the XI grade with higher psychomotor aspect than the mental part, 47%, and c) the average scores of mapping and imagery completeness had not been optimum since the learners were anxious to write their spatial ideas. The measurement of spatial thinking learning outcomes was rarely implemented. The masteries of Indonesia’s regions were still low while using the map. Moreover, the remote imagery sensing was a new material for Senior High School level. The conclusion is - that lower level of the students’ spatial thinking skills could be used as an initial reference to composing learning material and learning evaluation in improving spatial thinking skill of the students by using a map and remote sensing imagery in learning geography
