Abstract
Geography learning in the 21st century requires the use of technology. This research aims to develop and test the practicality of TPACK-based Google Sites e-learning media in geography learning strategy courses. This research uses the R&D (Research and Development) model A.D.D.I.E. (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) as a development guide. The object used as a reference for developing TPACK-based e-learning media is the Semester Learning Plan, with the research target being second-year geography education students. This research assessment uses a data collection questionnaire to see the practicality of implementing TPACK-based Google Sites e-learning media as a distributor of geography learning strategy course needs. Based on the results obtained from the validation results from material experts of 93.8%, then the validation results from media experts of 85%, then the validation results from linguists who obtained a score of 93.3% with a very valid category and declared feasible to use. The questionnaire results on student responses are also very feasible, with a percentage of 90.36%, so using TPACK-based e-learning as a learning companion is feasible. This research has implications for geography learning strategy and other courses.
