Sleman, Indonesia — On August 13, 2024, Jogjakarta Montessori Secondary School (JMSS) conducted an educational outing for Grade 7 and 9 students to Stasiun Klimatologi and Stasiun Geofisika Yogyakarta, marking a significant step in integrating practical learning into the school's curriculum. The visit aimed to deepen exposure to critical environmental and geological concepts, helping them to connect theoretical knowledge with real-world applications, directly supporting JMSS's holistic education mission.
At Stasiun Klimatologi, students observed instruments measuring weather components such as temperature, humidity, rainfall, and solar direction. They monitored the use of these instruments, gaining practical insights into how weather conditions and climate trends are assessed.
The second part of the outing took place at Stasiun Geofisika, where the focus shifted to seismic activities. Students observed the movement of seismographs directly, gaining insights into tectonism and tsunami-related phenomena. They learned about the geological processes that trigger earthquakes and the importance of monitoring seismic activity for disaster preparedness.
This outing was designed to enhance students' academic knowledge and raise their environmental awareness and understanding of the natural world. By engaging directly with field experts, students could connect classroom lessons with real-world phenomena, reinforcing their learning and fostering a deeper appreciation for the environment.
Jogjakarta Montessori Secondary School remains committed to providing educational experiences that extend beyond the traditional classroom setting, ensuring that students are well-prepared to navigate and understand the world's complexities.
