Learning method developed by teacher, in an effort to engage students in learning process, has shown its forward progress rapidly. The enforcement of curriculum 2013 for elementary, junior, and high-school level requires process besides the result of learning for final score. In other words, learning process is a significant factor in determining the final score of a course. The aim of this paper is to support the establishment of curriculum 2013 by introducing media-based learning model that is able to engage students to actively participate in learning process. The model introduced is “Sinau Wisata” learning. “Sinau Wisata” is a learning model that optimizes students’ involvement both individual and in-group in solving a problem. “Sinau” (in Javanese) can be understood as home learning while “wisata” is defined as a journey to delightful location. Thus, “Sinau Wisata” is a project of journey to a site that is designed to improve knowledge, intuition, and skills for pleasure without leaving school area. The stages of applying the method of “Sinau Wisata” are divided into: teacher’s preparation (by carrying a conventional site), explanation of tasks for each group, students discuss the tasks with their own group, students visit the conventional site including solving group’s problem, each group writes report of the journey, and each group presents the result for class discussion. The final result of “Sinau Wisata” program is formed as a report and each group presentation that are able to be significant for the point of learning process.
