Analysis of Teacher Readiness in Implementing Learning Based on Local Maritime Potential

Abstract

Learning is an important part of education. The quality of learning largely determines achievement of educational goals. Learning needs to be integrated with the environment to prepare students according to the needs of the times. The expected impact is that students will be aware of the environment, have a sense of ownership, and keep it sustainable. This research was carried out to determine teacher readiness in implementing learning based on local maritime potential. The type of research is descriptive qualitative with the subject being elementary school teachers at State 013 Tanjungpinang City. Data sources were obtained through interviews, observation and collection of learning documents. Based on the data obtained, teachers are ready to integrate learning based on local maritime potential. This can be seen from the learning activities carried out as well as the documentation of the devices available. Then, teachers routinely carry out learning using technology to increase interest and motivation. Teachers also encounter obstacles and challenges regarding insight that needs to be improved regarding local potential because teachers are not native residents and their abilities. Several recommendations are also given to overcome the problems that emerged in this research.
