Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the characteristics of practicum tools developed and prove that the bulb lamp can be used as an innovation replacement of convex lenses, and determine the index of refraction of liquids. This type of research is research and development. The research was conducted at SMK Ma'arif Semarang. The characteristics of the practicum tool are developed as follows: 1) the practicum tool that is created is a form of innovation which utilizes household items such as bulbs that are no longer used; (2) practicum tools can overcome the problems of limitations on marginal schools; (3) The refractive index practicum tool is well designed and practical. The result of feasibility of practicum index of refractive bias obtained percentage of 92,5% with very feasible category. The results of the study showed the refractive index value of water, alcohol and vinegar respectively of 1.8, 1.84 ,; and 1.85. Lamp bulb can be used as a substitute for the convex lens and determine the refractive index of the liquid, but there is a difference between n table with n measured when practicum with a mean of 0.46, this is due to the limitations of practicum tools.

Abstract

In teaching English the method which is used should be communicative and suited to the students’ characteristics. It is aimed to create the teaching learning process which is interesting and comforting to the students so that they can reach the learning goal and English becomes a more attractive subject for them. From the reason above, experiential learning method could be as the solution. Experiential learning method can be used in teaching English to make the teaching learning process much interesting and fun. It will enhance students’ interest in learning process in the classroom, because the circumstances become more interesting. It is suitable with the students who are like to be active so experiential learning can be helpful in teaching English. Experiential learning is so effective to enhance the student’s English proficiency because it’s a process of learning by doing. Experiential learning is also a fun way to learn life skills. The students will have fun while they learn and this makes learning more effective and long lasting.  How to CiteAnisa, I. (2016).

Abstract

Active learning is a pedagogical approach which engages students in the learning process, aiming to optimize comprehension of educational material. Meta-analysis of current research shows maximum impact when applied to STEM education, especially for underrepresented minority (URM) students and students with a low GPA. This study focuses on student success, progression, completion and STEM interest within the General Chemistry course sequence at Pasadena City College, which has a 51% Hispanic student population. Data from classes implementing active learning pedagogy consistently had higher success and progression rates, as well as increased progression success from General Chemistry 1 to General Chemistry 2, with a greater positive impact and completion success among Hispanic students compared to students from Asian populations, whose progression success was negatively impacted through use of active learning pedagogy in comparison to traditional lecture-based coursework. Comparison of scores for the American Chemical Society General Chemistry Exams, from this community college and at a national level, indicates active learning students perform equally well on chemistry standardized tests. In total, active learning classes were most beneficial to Hispanic students, and should be designed according to course level, be scaffolded to future coursework to maximize impact through development of STEM active learning pathways in which students are immersed in active learning classrooms continuously through undergraduate STEM academic coursework.

Abstract

The role of teachers is very important in the learning process to create a quality learning atmosphere so as to produce a quality output as well. The fact that there are still many obstacles in the field related to the role of a competent and professional teachers. There are still many students who have not been able to optimally apply the results of education in school into real life. This is what needs to get attention, that teachers as the spearhead of the success of national education goals that can be achieved by students. This study aims to find out how the form of planning and implementation of learning in elementary schools in applying the model of PBL, and how students#39; achievements in solving problems. Research with descriptive method, collecting data through questionnaire, test, and interview. Data analysis is statistically descriptive with calculation of percentage and graph. The results showed that the planning and implementation of learning with Problem Base Learning (PBL) is still low on average. The lowest score of teacher questionnaire results is on implementing scientific learning as much as 29.7% and understanding of new scientific steps 30%. Student learning outcomes measured through tests with three categories indicate the percentage of students in completing the lowest test is in the problem-solving

Abstract

4C competencies (Communication, Collaboration, Critical Thinking and Problem Solving, Creativity and Innovation) is the learning achievement needed at this time. Learning in the Industrial Revolution 4.0 era provides an opportunity to increase 4C competencies without space and time limits, by utilizing information and communication technology. This study aims to use the G-Suite for Education as a substitution of learning models and or strategies to improve 4C competence in the Wawasan Pedagogi Course in the Physics Study Program of Mathematics and Natural Science Faculty of Sebelas Maret University. The research mechanism includes two strand cycles, namely learning with a student-centered learning (SCL) approach as follows: 1). Classical and 2). Online using G-Suite for Education. Reflections from the two research cycles show students could  follow both classical (face-to-face) and online learning strategies, in the delivery of material and or assessment of learning outcomes.

Abstract

Every student in solving mathematical problems in the form of story problems has a unique solution. This uniqueness encourages research conducted to describe the problem-solving ability of social arithmetic stories by junior high school students from Polya stage. Stage Polya consists of understanding the problem, making plans, implementing plans and re-checking. The approach of this research is descriptive qualitative with subject as many as 3 students of class VIII SMP namely that each one student with different level of ability. The results show that high-ability students can go through all stages of Polya. Moderate students can only go through 3 stages namely, understand the problem, make plans and make plans. This student can not solve the problem correctly and there is an error in the calculation. Low-ability students can not pass through all stages Polya, because this student does not understand what is known and asked from the problem so that in the next stage can not be through it. It is expected that this research become one of the reference to optimize student problem solving abilities.

Abstract

Self-efficacy is one of the important aspects for teacher education students. High self-efficacy helps them to be more confident in doing their teaching practices. This can also affect their future performance as pre-service teachers, especially in the ICT field. In order to understand their self-efficacy, it is necessary to explore the source of self-efficacy thoroughly. This study aims to explore the sources of self-efficacy of ICT teacher -education students of Information and Computer Engineering Education at a private university in Salatiga who have completed their teaching practicum program. This study employs qualitative methods, and uses interviews for data collection. This involves 10 student teachers as participants. The results of the study describe the sources of self-efficacy of the student teachers. It identifies four sources of self-efficacy, they are mastery experience, vicarious experience, verbal persuasion and emotional arousal. The results show that the four main sources studied in this study contributed a lot in increasing the self-efficacy of the ICT student teachers.  Finally, this study offers recommendations for further research.
