- Abstract
Educational development in undeveloped regions needs contributions from all parties. Main problem of development in disadvantaged areas is the low interest of teachers and pre-service teachers to serve in the area. Low readiness of teachers and pre-service teachers is caused by a lack of knowledge from real physical, social and educational conditions in remote regions. interviews were conducted with students in class K. Result was that 12.82% wanted to serve in remote areas and 87.18% were unwilling. This condition is very worrying because if pre-service teachers do not care about the development of education in disadvantaged areas, education development will be hampered. Therefore, this study aims to foster a willingness to serve students in disadvantaged areas by implementing Project Based Learning. Method used in this research is Classroom Action Research. Research subjects were students of the 2015 geography education program on social geography courses. Research instrument was an interview guide and observation sheet. Data were analyzed descriptively qualitatively. Results showed that there was an increase in the number of students who were willing to serve in disadvantaged areas from 14.71% to 44.11%. Students’ willingness to serve in remote regions requires to be improved by implementing innovative learning that can increase awareness of serving in all courses.
