Abstract

The objective of this study is to examine the correlation between learning styles and student learning outcomes in the Limnology course within the Biology Education Study Program at FKIP UNTAD, during the odd academic year of 2021/2022. The present study employs a quantitative descriptive research methodology. The data was obtained by administering a learning style questionnaire consisting of 23 items to a sample of 30 students enrolled in the Biology Education Study Program at FKIP UNTAD. The data analysis was conducted using the Product Moment correlation test. The findings of the research indicate that during the odd semester of the 2021/2022 academic year, all students enrolled in the Limnology elective course exhibited a preference for visual learning. Nevertheless, a diminished correlation was observed in relation to the association between learning styles and student learning outcomes. The results of this study make two distinct contributions to the current body of literature. The present study describes a taxonomy of participant learning styles, making anticipatory projections based on analogous investigations. Furthermore, this study investigates the influence of different learning styles on the achievement of learning objectives. Moreover, this study incorporates demographic data to control for its impact on educational achievements. The examination and interpretation of the findings from both analyzes will enhance scholarly comprehension of the essential determinants of success in the learning process and their tangible implementation in the field of Limnology education.

Abstract

Macrobenthos are animals that live at the bottom of waters, both freshwater and seawater. This study aims to describe the diversity of macrobenthos as a bioindicator of water quality in Lake Poso and its use as a learning medium. This study uses a purposive random sampling method with a sampling technique using free collection with a roaming path method of ± 100 m per station. While the data analysis technique uses quantitative descriptive. The results of the study showed that the macrobenthos diversity index was obtained at station I (2.51) and then followed by station II (2.44) and station III (2.19). While the macrobenthos diversity index in Lake Poso is 2.26 and is categorized as a moderate level of diversity. The high macrobenthos diversity index at station I is because the macrobenthos habitat is still maintained and surrounded by forest vegetation so that the macrobenthos found are quite diverse. The development of research results as a learning media in the form of a pocket book, from the validation results including media validation, content validation, and design validation conducted by 3 expert lecturers and the feasibility test tested on 20 students obtained a percentage of 79.6% and is worthy of being used as a learning media.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to describe the abundance of gastropods in the marine waters of Bonebula Beach, Banawa Tengah Subdistrict, and to utilise the findings as a learning resource in the form of electronic pocket books. The research methodology employed is descriptive quantitative research, with the location determined through purposive sampling, resulting in the designation of three observation stations. Station 1 is situated within the seagrass ecosystem, Station 2 within the mangrove ecosystem, and Station 3 within the coral ecosystem. The sampling was conducted using a free collection method. The findings revealed the presence of 19 species of gastropods belonging to 13 families and six orders. The abundance of gastropods on Bonebula Beach is classified as moderate, representing 18.33% of the total population. The percentage of content experts, design experts and media experts is 85%, 85.33% and 84.29%, respectively, with an average feasibility rating of 84.87%. This indicates that the electronic pocket book medium is highly feasible for use.
