Pembelajaran IPAS di SD Negeri 1 Sukawati masih didominasi metode ceramah yang menyebabkan siswa pasif dan motivasi belajar rendah. Padahal lingkungan sekolah memiliki potensi sebagai sumber belajar melalui penerapan metode outdoor study. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan implementasi metode outdoor study, faktor pendukung dan penghambat, serta implikasinya dalam pembelajaran IPAS siswa kelas IV. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik pengumpulan data berupa observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi, serta didukung teori kognitivisme dan konstruktivisme. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa implementasi outdoor study meliputi tahap persiapan, pelaksanaan, dan evaluasi. Faktor pendukung mencakup ketersediaan sumber belajar, sarana prasarana, lingkungan yang aman, dan media pembelajaran, sedangkan faktor penghambat meliputi keterbatasan waktu, pengelolaan kelas, cuaca, dan konsentrasi siswa.

Learning of IPAS at SD Negeri 1 Sukawati is still dominated by the lecture method, which causes students to be passive and have low learning motivation. In fact, the school environment has the potential to be used as a learning resource through the implementation of the outdoor study method. This study aims to describe the implementation of the outdoor study method, the supporting and inhibiting factors, and its implications for IPAS learning of fourth-grade students. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation, supported by cognitive and constructivist learning theories. The results show that the implementation of the outdoor study method includes the stages of preparation, implementation, and evaluation. Supporting factors include the availability of learning resources, facilities and infrastructure, a safe learning environment, and learning media, while inhibiting factors consist of limited time, difficulties in classroom management, weather conditions, and students’ lack of concentration. The implementation of the outdoor study method has positive implications in reducing boredom, increasing learning enthusiasm and curiosity, enriching learning experiences, improving social interaction and collaboration, and stimulating students’ critical and creative thinking skills.
