Abstract

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh rendahnya kemampuan berpikir kritis peserta didik dalam pembelajaran IPA akibat penggunaan media konvensional yang monoton. Untuk mengatasinya, dipilih media video pembelajaran animasi karena mampu memadukan unsur visual, auditori, dan gerak sehingga konsep abstrak IPA dapat disajikan lebih konkret dan menarik. Dibandingkan media lain seperti teks atau gambar statis, animasi lebih efektif dalam meningkatkan motivasi, pemahaman konsep, serta menstimulasi kemampuan berpikir kritis peserta didik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh penggunaan media video pembelajaran animasi terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis peserta didik pada mata pelajaran IPA kelas III. Mengetahui seberapa besar pengaruh media video pembelajaran animasi terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis peserta didik pada mata pelajaran IPA kelas III. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan jenis penelitian pre-eksperimental menggunakan desain one group pretest-posttest. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di MI Nurul Islam Mirigambar Tulungagung dengan sampel kelas III yang berjumlah 21 peserta didik. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi, tes, dan angket. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan : Nilai signifikansi sebesar 0,000 < 0,05. Dengan demikian, H0 ditolak dan H1 diterima. Artinya, terdapat pengaruh yang signifikan antara penggunaan media video pembelajaran animasi terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis peserta didik.

Abstract

The low conceptual understanding of mathematics in elementary schools is often caused by learning practices that ignore the cognitive phase of students, which is the background of this research. This study aims to test whether or not there is and how much influence the concrete pictorial abstract approach has on students' conceptual understanding of plane geometry material. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental research type was used in this study. The sampling technique used was saturated sampling which is included in nonprobability sampling. The data collection technique was carried out through written tests in the form of pretests and posttests. The data analysis technique used was the normality and homogeneity test as prerequisite tests. The Independent Sample T-test and Cohen's d test were used for hypothesis testing. The results of the study showed that (1) There is an influence of the concrete pictorial abstract approach on students' conceptual understanding of plane geometry material, as shown in the results of the Independent Sample T-test with a Sig. value of 0.001 (≤ 0.05), so that Ha1 is accepted and Ho1 is rejected. (2) There is a large influence of the concrete pictorial abstract approach on students' conceptual understanding of the material on flat shapes, as shown by the results of the Cohen's d test with a d value of 1.31 (≥ 0.8), so that Ha2 is accepted and Ho2 is rejected. The results of the study confirm that the implementation of concrete pictorial abstracts increases students' conceptual understanding statistically and has practical significance.

Abstract

This research is based on the existence of problems in Javanese language learning in grade IV. Students consider the Javanese uploading material to be difficult material. Educators use the lecture method more, without the help of learning media so that students are bored. Therefore, the researcher developed a flashcard media for ngoko and krama vocabulary through a simulation method with the aim of helping students understand the differences and use of ngoko and krama vocabulary. This research uses the type (R&D) with the ADDIE model consisting of Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The results of the study showed that (1) The development of flashcard media obtained 80% (valid) results from material expert validators, 97.3% (very valid) media expert validators, 96% (very valid) results from question validators. The results of the teacher trial were 100% (very good), the results of the small group trial were 86.7% (very good) and the results of the large group trial were 90.83% (very good). (2) The feasibility of flashcard media can be seen from the results of increasing pre-test to post-test scores. The average result of the pre-test score was 50.00 to 87.50 in the post-test results, so there was an increase of 37.50 points. This proves that the flashcard media of ngoko and krama vocabulary through the simulation method is declared suitable for use as a learning medium in Javanese language subjects in grade IV elementary school.
