ABSTRACT
Online learning caused polemics in education, so teachers began showing action in creative pedagogy through the learning media, such as podcasts. This study aims to de-scribe podcast media that can be used to grow students' historical imagination in learning History and Social Sciences. Historical imagination is the cognitive ability to add or fill an insufficient space of historical facts. This research uses qualitative methods with a phenome-nological approach. The subject of this study was an eleventh-grade student of the social studies program at SMA Negeri 1 Tuntang and a teacher—data collection through online interviews via a Google form. The results showed that podcast media is a form of creative learning in history and social studies. Podcasts as a medium to grow students' historical imagination through the material "Stories from the Past” and "Come on Listen” content. The results showed that 74.6% of students responded positively about implementing podcast media. Despite having a high presentation in positive responses, 22.2% of students still have difficulty understanding the material using podcast media, and the rest feel ordinary, so they give advice. Based on this, it can be concluded that podcast media can be used to grow stu-dents' historical imagination despite several internal and external obstacles. An internal bot-tleneck in the podcast creation process takes quite a while. In contrast, external barriers are caused by students' growing demands for podcast-based learning. © 2023, Universitas Negeri Semarang. All rights reserved.
ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic has lasted for more than 2 years. The education sector is one of the most influential fields to apply online learning policies. Indonesia has implemented online learning since the pandemic in 2020. This study aims to provide an overview of knowledge during the COVID-19 pandemic using the education for sustainable development (ESD)-oriented read, answer, discuss, explain and create (RADEC) model. This study used the descriptive method by providing an overview of the ESD-oriented RADEC learning process in the basic concepts of biology and science for prospective elementary schoolteachers. The research subjects were 33 prospective elementary schoolteacher students who contracted courses. The instruments used were observation sheets, documentation and a questionnaire. The results showed that lectures using the ESD-oriented RADEC model could be an alternative for online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the ESD-oriented RADEC model may allow universities to instil the concept of ESD related to knowledge, attitudes and values that can support sustainable development. © 2022 Birlesik Dunya Yenilik Arastirma ve Yayincilik Merkezi.
