Abstract

This paper describes utilization of the Museum by high school teachers in Sawahlunto City. As we known that museums are a source of learning that can be used by teachers in the process of learning history, so the values of past events and the values of characters expected to be understood by students can reach students well. The city of Sawahlunto is a Colonial city which keeps many traces of past events that have now been kept in museums managed by the government. Some of them are Museum Gudang Ransum, Kereta Api and Lubang Mbah Suro. This article is the result of research on the understanding of the history teachers of Sawahlunto City High School to use of the Museum as one of the history learning media. Through observations and interviews conducted, the results were obtained that the history teachers at Sawahlunto City High School had not been maximized in utilizing the Museum as a medium of learning history. Although the Museum has done several activities that will attract visitors to come to the Museum. Through this research it is hoped that it can help history teachers understand the importance of using museums and start utilizing museums in learning history.
