Abstract

Innovative and creative teaching methods are prioritized in 21st century education. Many teachers still do not fully utilize technology, despite the fact that it is accessible to help learning. Therefore, a framework is required for the integration of pedagogy, technology, and educational resources. Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge is one pertinent strategy (TPACK). An overview of the relationship between teachers at Makassar's Sekolah penggerak knowledge and their capacity to apply TPACK is the goal of this quantitative descriptive study. The following result were reached: 1) The percentage of Sekolah penggerak Teachers in Makassar who possess TPACK knowledge is 92%; 2) The percentage of Sekolah penggerak Teachers in Makassar who possess TPACK ability is 92%; 3) The percentage of Sekolah penggerak Teachers in Makassar who can develop teaching modules using the TPACK approach is 94%; and 4) There is a significant correlation between TPACK knowledge and the ability to implement the TPACK framework through the development of learning tools, with a large relationship of 0.608 x 0.591 = 0.359 with a total effect of 0.518 + 0.359 = 0.87 at a significance level of 0.047 (<0.05).Keywords: Implementation Ability, Learning Planning, Sekolah penggerak, TPACK

Abstract

Abstract. This quasi-experimental study evaluated the effect of STEM-based biology instruction supported by Virtual Lab Gizmos on students’ cognitive learning outcomes across academic ability levels. Sixty Grade-12 science students at a senior high school participated in a four-week intervention and were randomly assigned to experimental (STEM + Gizmos, n = 30) and control (contextual learning, n = 30) classes. Cognitive outcomes were measured with a validated 25-item test (Cronbach’s α = .89). Two-way ANCOVA controlling for pretest scores revealed significant main effects of learning approach (F = 62.67, p < .001) and academic ability (F = 179.95, p < .001), and a significant interaction (F = 4.19, p = .026). Post hoc LSD comparisons showed adjusted means of 92.00 (STEM-high), 86.33 (STEM-low), 82.17 (contextual-high), and 75.83 (contextual-low), indicating larger gains in the STEM + Gizmos groups. These results suggest that integrating STEM pedagogy with virtual laboratory simulations can substantially improve conceptual mastery and reduce achievement gaps. Future research should test longer interventions and diverse school contexts.Keywords: STEM learning; Virtual Lab Gizmos; cognitive outcomes; academic ability; biology education.
