Implementation of Spatial Data-Based Learning in Planning Studio Subjects

Abstract

The Urban and Regional Planning Study Department studies and plans spatial conditions for future needs. The scope of knowledge starts from the scale of neighborhoods, and cities to the entire region. Implementing spatial-based or spatial data-based learning is decisive in producing outcomes from planning studio courses, which are core courses in the PWK study program. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of implementing spatial data-based learning in increasing student interest and understanding in understanding data management in the learning process of planning studio subjects. Data collection techniques are through observation, interviews, and questionnaires. The results obtained show that students` ability to understand data increases when non-spatial data is converted into spatial data or perform spatial analysis on data that is not spatially based. Data presentation techniques integrated with digital maps are easier to understand than data presented in tabular form.
