Abstract

The research attempted to design and create software for learning TOEFL. Specifically, it successfully embodied computer-based TOEFL (CBT). The device is a practice test of TOEFL provided for students of Bali State Polytechnic (BSP) particularly and public in general. The execution of research was successfully undertaken pursuant to grant funded by the institution. A set of TOEFL test implemented conventionally as the result of a former developmental result of research was chosen and redesigned to be software-based product. To see whether the test is applicable, a group of ten research participants from Civil Engineering department students were invited to try out the test. Upon their working out the test, they were assigned to fill in questionnaire to obtain necessary input to be used for test revision. Some revision on the test was then done consistent with the input given by research participants. The practice test of TOEFL is considered to be a ready-used practice test for students of BSP and public. However, a number of practice tests shall be developed to provide students who wish to intensively practice working out the test. Moreover, learning center (LC) for TOEFL, whose practice test for TOEFL has been being done conventionally or paper-based type, set in BSP is a compatible place to store and practice TOEFL exercise. It is suggested that there will be the next grant which can fund the further research on making various CBT hardware for TOEFL in BSP

Abstract

Program Iptek Bagi Masyarakat (IbM) bagi kelompok tani di Desa Batunya Baturiti Tabanan bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kualitas dan kuantitas tanah olahan sehingga didapatkan produktivitas yang setinggi-tingginya. Kualitas tanah olahan dikatakan baik bilamana agregat atau butir-butir tanah terdiri dari butiran kecil yang memungkinkan terjadinya sirkulasi oksigen ketika tanah ditanami, sedangkan kuantitas tanah olahan adalah jumlah tanah dalam meter persegi yang mampu diolah tiap satuan waktu. Dengan kualitas tanah olahan yang baik petani akan mampu menanam bibit lebih banyak jika dibantingkan jika tanah olahan terdiri dari bongkahan-bongkahan kasar tidak merata. Pisau bajak atau yang lebih umum disebut singkal memegang peranan penting ketika proses pengolahan tanah akan dilakukan. Pisau bajak yang selama ini dipakai oleh warga kelompok tani adalah pisau bajak existing yang memiliki kelemahan pada bentuk mata pisau yang tidak bisa dibelokkan atau dibuat membentuk sudut, sehingga tidak mampu menjangkau tanah yang berada di pinggir pematang. Kira-kira 1 meter di sepanjang pematang tanah garapan tidak bisa dikerjakan karena alasan teknis, yaitu terhalang oleh roda traktor. Tanah-tanah tersebut, ditambah tanah di setiap sudut petak ladang terpaksa harus dikerjakan dengan tenaga tani upahan yang tentunya memerlukan biaya tambahan. Dengan mempertimbangkan adanya kemungkinan untuk upaya perbaikan, anggota kelompok tani Kembang Sari Batunya Bedugul sepakat berkolaborasi dengan para akademisi Politeknik Negeri Bali untuk mendapatkan solusi. Ada tiga desain yang ditawarkan kepada kelompok tani Kembang Sari, Desa Batunya Kecamatan Baturiti Tabanan Bali. Pertama, pisau bajak dengan empat mata pisau. Desain ini mengadopsi model pisau bajak yang dipakai oleh petani di Negara Inggris. Kinerja pisau bajak empat mata cukup baik, namun kurang disukai oleh petani karena agak berat dan tidak mampu menghalau sampah. Pisau bajak bermata dua juga memberi harapan cerah karena mampu meningkatkan produktivitas hampir 12%, namun sebagaimana juga pisau bajak bermata empat, pisau bajak ini memiliki kelemahan pada desain yang kurang fleksibel serta relatif berat. Mempertimbangkan kelemahan kedua desain di atas, pilihan kemudian jatuh pada desain yang ketiga, yaitu sebuah pisau bajak multi fungsi yang ergonomis. Multi fungsi karena posisi pisau dapat diatur sesuai dengan kebutuhan. Ergonomis karena ukurannya memakai antropometri petani. Produktivitas kerja meningkat cukup signifikan saat pisau bajak jenis ini diaplikasikan pada tanah lahan kering.

Abstract

This research is a study of the effect of visual complaints on learning achievement. High and low visual complaints are strongly influenced by student mobility or motor activity. Mobility can also maintain concentration to be maintained at a certain time. Class mobility is carried out through simple interactive learning, which is an effort to invite students to always move and always be active in the learning process. The long-term goal of research is to obtain effective learning strategies in vocational universities, while the short-term goal of research is to obtain learning methods in English subjects that are best able to provide optimal results on student academic achievement. Departing from the problem that the concentration of students decreases in line with the length of the lecture and the lack of student interaction in the classroom, a strategy is made that allows the concentration of students to be maintained during the lecture process by increasing student mobility in the classroom. To find out the impact of the treatment/ intervention on the subject's condition, a real experiment will be conducted using the two period cross over design. The assessment of the quality of the learning process was carried out with 2 cycles of study, in which each cycle was ended by giving a test/questionnaire. Data were analyzed descriptively qualitatively. Student learning achievements in the form of final grades are calculated according to the grade with the following weighting: 10% daily quiz/test + 10% assignment + 10% report + 30% Middle Semester Exam + 40% Final Semester Examination. The results showed that high visual complaints can reduce concentration and reduce student achievement.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect size of digital mathematics textbooks in blended learning assisted by Schoology to improve mathematical problem-solving abilities in polytechnic students. The research was conducted at the Bali State Polytechnic (PNB), using the Research & Development method with a 4-D model (define, design, develop, and disseminate). Currently, the dissemination stage is carried out through an effectiveness test using a quasi-experiment approach, with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The subjects are PNB engineering students in 2020/2021, and 10 classes are taken by purposive sampling. Data were collected using a mathematical problem-solving ability test and analyzed using a t-test, N-Gain scores, and effect size. The results of the analysis show that the effect size of digital mathematics textbooks to improve mathematical problem-solving skills in Schoology-assisted blended learning is very large. The implication is that increasing the ability to solve mathematical problems through blended learning assisted by Schoology for polytechnic students will be quite effective if it is facilitated by digital mathematics textbooks.

Abstract

The existence of traditional arts today serves not only as a cultural identity of a region but also as a dynamic force that influences the life and values of the local community. Traditions that are rooted in a particular area emerge through a long historical and cultural journey, eventually becoming systems of belief and habitual practice. The shared perspectives and local mythologies that form the basis of these traditions often reflect the creativity and local genius of the community. One such revitalized tradition is Mebuug-Buugan in Adat Kedonganan Village, Kuta District, Badung Regency, Bali, which was reconstructed in 2014 after being absent for nearly 60 years. The aim of this study is to explore the philosophical and social meanings embedded within the Mebuug-Buugan tradition, and to assess how it embodies the principles of local wisdom, especially in relation to Tri Hita Karana, the Balinese philosophy of harmonious living. Using a qualitative descriptive method, this research relies on data gathered through observation, interviews, and document studies related to the tradition’s implementation, symbols, and community participation. The analysis reveals that Mebuug-Buugan, a mud-based ritual conducted in mangrove areas after the Nyepi celebration, is not merely a traditional game but a symbolic act of self-purification, environmental harmony, and social cohesion. The ritual’s reconstruction has strengthened the community’s cultural identity, revitalized environmental awareness, and reestablished social harmony rooted in ancestral values. In conclusion, Mebuug-Buugan is a valuable cultural expression that reflects deep spiritual and ecological meanings. Its revitalization affirms the resilience of Balinese traditions in the modern era and highlights the importance of preserving local wisdom through collective community action.

Abstract

Understanding occupational health and safety (OHS) is essential for engineering students, especially in high-risk environments such as mechanical workshops, where unsafe practices can lead to accidents and injuries. Although Regulation Number 5 of 2018 from the Indonesian Ministry of Manpower mandates OHS implementation in all workplaces, students’ knowledge and behavior still fall short of the expected safety standards. This study aimed to measure students’ understanding of OHS, their basic knowledge of OHS law, and their behavior during workshop practicum activities. A cross-sectional research design was used, involving 203 students in State Polytechnic in Badung District, Indonesia. Data were collected through direct observation, surveys, and interviews. OHS understanding and legal knowledge were assessed using a test questionnaire, while OHS behavior was evaluated using a Likert-scale-based questionnaire. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling at a 95% confidence level. The results indicated that combined OHS understanding and legal knowledge influence OHS behavior by 25.1%, with legal knowledge alone contributing only 1.8%, suggesting that knowledge of the law cannot shape behavior independently. Other contributing factors, such as engaging teaching methods and continuous monitoring, are needed.

Abstract

English speaking fluency is a vital communication skill for engineering students, especially in the context of increasing global collaboration and the internationalization of higher education. However, many engineering students face persistent challenges in oral communication due to a lack of confidence, limited exposure to authentic speaking environments, and traditional language teaching methods that prioritize passive learning. This study explores the effectiveness of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) as an instructional approach to enhance English speaking fluency among engineering students. PBL is rooted in constructivist learning theory and emphasizes collaborative, learner-centered activities that simulate real-world problem-solving scenarios. Through a quasi-experimental research design, two groups of engineering students at a public university in Indonesia were observed over one academic semester. The experimental group engaged in PBL-driven English speaking sessions, while the control group received conventional speaking instruction. Pre- and post-intervention assessments, alongside qualitative data from classroom observations and student reflections, were analyzed to measure improvements in fluency, coherence, and language complexity. The results revealed that the PBL group demonstrated significantly higher gains in speaking fluency compared to the control group. Moreover, students reported increased motivation, reduced speaking anxiety, and greater engagement in communicative tasks. These findings suggest that integrating PBL into English for Specific Purposes (ESP) instruction can provide engineering students with meaningful opportunities to practice language in contextually rich and cognitively engaging environments. This research contributes to the growing body of literature on innovative pedagogy in language education and offers practical implications for curriculum designers, language instructors, and policymakers aiming to improve communicative competence in STEM fields. Future studies are recommended to examine long-term impacts and scalability across diverse educational settings.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the process of internalizing religious values of Islamic Religious Education in students’ language skills learning at the elementary school level. This research employed a qualitative approach with a field research design. The research subjects included Islamic Religious Education teachers, classroom teachers/Indonesian language teachers, and elementary school students. Data were collected through observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was conducted using an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the internalization of religious values in language skills learning occurs through several stages, namely the introduction of religious values, understanding of values, reinforcement and habituation, and value internalization reflected in students’ language behavior. Religious values were internalized through teacher role modeling, the use of polite language, selection of texts containing Islamic values, and habituation of respectful language use in classroom interactions. This process positively contributes to the development of students’ religious character, particularly in terms of politeness, honesty, and responsibility in language use. The study implies that language skills learning should be integratively designed with Islamic Religious Education to strengthen students’ religious character in elementary schools.
