Therefore, the Institute for Educational Teaching (LPTK), especially historical education must be able to answer the challenge by applying learning innovation. LPTK has the task of preparing professional teachers, who are able to educate the young generation as the future successors. Teachers are professional positions demanding academic, pedagogical, social, and professional requirements. This study aims to analyze the application of learning experiential learning model in history learning at the State University of Surabaya, especially in the Department of History education.
