Abstract: \nThis article analyzed teachers’ perceptions of the GeoSMART approach in geography learning on map material. The GeoSMART approach is a new approach in Geography learning that focuses on five aspects of the learning scenario/learning experience, namely: 1) learning begins with facts and observations, 2) measurable, 3) contextual and applicable in everyday life, 4) developing reasoning/critical thinking and 5) optimization of technology in learning. The data in this article is part of the GeoSMART approach development research data, which only covers the stages: 1) analysis of problems and needs, 2) developing prototypes and doing the validation, and 3) limited testing. The study’s respondents were 32 Geography teachers in West Sumatra who had participated in socialization, workshops, and learning simulations with the GeoSMART approach. Teacher perception data was obtained using questionnaires. The results showed that teachers’ perceptions were generally in the very good category for all indicators asked and that the level of teacher approval was very high.\n
