Learning Styles, Geographic Literacy, Prospective Geography Teachers, Geographic SkillsResumen
Geographic literacy and skills are essential competencies for prospective Geography teachers to effectively perform their roles as educators in the 21st-century education era. This study analyzes the relationship between learning styles, geographic literacy, and geographic skills among prospective Geography teachers. A quantitative survey design was employed, using questionnaires and tests to measure learning styles, geographic literacy, and geographic skills. The approach used is quantitative, using a survey method, problem-based investigation, and data analysis using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The study population consists of all active students in Geography Education programs at public and private universities in Indonesia. The sample size amounting to 249 students from 19 public and private universities. Using two types of instruments geographical literacy test: multiple-choice questions-based case study and learning style questionnaire: adapted from the Felder-Silverman. Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) to gain deeper insights and data analysis using SMART PLS software. These results underscore the importance of fostering geographic literacy as a foundation for enhancing geographic skills. The influence of visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles on geography skills (KG) and geographic literacy skills (KLG) have different effects. The implications of this study highlight the need for instructional strategies that support visual learning styles and promote the development of geographic literacy among prospective teachers, preparing them to become professional educators capable of addressing global challenges. The findings reveal that student with a visual learning style exhibit higher geographic literacy than those with auditory and kinesthetic learning styles.
