Abstract

The research aimed to investigate the effectiveness of integrated Natural Science learning by using a scientific approach-based module to improve students? creative thinking Skill at substance pressure concept. The module was developed by employing a 4D model by Thiagarajan, Semmel & Semmel (1974) with one group pretest-posttest design. The research involved 30 students at SMP Negeri 2 Luwuk, particularly in class VIII A2 and its instrument was creative thinking skill test adopted and composed from a test developed by Hu, Weiping (2002) and Panjaitan (2014). The instrument comprised 3 indicators which were thinking fluency, thinking flexibility, and thinking originality. It used average normalized gain as analysis. The finding of research showed that the result of the normalized N-gain test differed in each of creative thinking indicator. The values of N-gain for an aspect of fluency was 0.58 with a medium category, for an aspect of flexibility was 0.57 with medium category and for an aspect of originality was 0.13 with a low category. In brief, the average value of N-gain for all creative thinking indicators was 0.42 with a medium category. To conclude, the finding confirmed that the integrated Natural Science learning by using scientific approach-based module was effective in improving students? creative thinking skill at substance pressure concept.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine and describe whether students’ ratings of professors are influenced by the professor’s gender, age, and race. A survey is used to collect data. The sample (n= 319) used in this study is drawn from 16 different undergraduate classes taught by 9 different instructors. Students in this survey are enrolled in required general studies courses from a large-size public university in Southwestern United States. Using analysis of variance and frequency distribution, the findings reveal that professors’ gender, race, and age are related to how they are rated by students. The findings also indicate that female and male students differ in rating their professors. Furthermore, the research findings suggest that professors’ attitudes and interactions, as well as whether or not they post student grade, or accept students’ assignments online affects student ratings of professors.

Abstract

This is a quasi experimental research aiming to compare the learning outcomes resulted from Jigsaw and Two Stay Two Stray learning models in the context of self regulated learning. The objectives of this research are to investigate (1) whether there is an influence of the learning model on the learning outcomes, (2) whether there is an influence of self regulated learning on the mathematics learning outcomes, and (3) whether there is an interaction between the learning models (Jigsaw and TSTS) and self regulated learning. The population of this research was the eleventh graders of SMA 1 Bringin having the mathematical induction lesson. By employing the cluster random sampling technique, two MIPA (math and science program) classes were selected to be the research subjects. The XI MIPA 2 class was set to be the experimental class, and XI MIPA 4 as the comparison. This research employed the Randomized Control Pretest-Posttest Design Group, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov method to test normality, Leven's method to test homogeneity, and Independent Sample T-Test to test the initial balance of ability. The statistical test program used in this research was SPSS version 24 with 5% significance level. The results of hypothesis testing concluded that (1) there were no differences in the learning outcomes resulted from the cooperative learning model implementation, (2) there were differences in the learning outcomes in the context of self regulated learning, and (3) there was no interaction between the learning models and self regulated learning.

Abstract

The research was carried out at SMK PGRI 1 Ponorogo, Ponorogo Regency, East Java Province. This research aimed to determine the effectiveness of the implementation of the dual system education (DSE) program in the accounting Expertise program at SMK PGRI 1 Ponorogo. There were 9 validators in this research. The results showed that the implementation of the dual education system program in the accounting expertise program at SMK PGRI 1 Ponorogo has not been running effectively as evidenced by the average score of the overall input/planning, process/implementation, and product/assessment of 3.75, while for the effective standard, the scale is 4. The Input/planning stage includes the selection of competencies (4), determination of industry (4.78), preparation of programs (4.78), debriefing of participants (4.78), determination of mentors (4.67). The overall average score is 4.60 ≥ 4, so it is said to be effective. The process/implementation stage consists of the preparation of the DSE journal (3.78), DSE monitoring (4), and portfolio documentation (2.78). The overall average score is 3.52 ≤ 4, so it is said to be ineffective. The product/assessment stage includes the supervisor assessment (4.11), industry certification (4.78), and score reporting (3.55) with the overall score of 4.14, which is said to be effective.

Abstract

In the Indonesian 2005 Law (UU No. 14 Tahun 2005) about Teachers and Lecturers there are four competencies that must be owned by a lecturer in carrying out the duties –the Tridharma– namely pedagogic, personality, professional, and social competence. This research analyzes the evaluation results of lecturer's performance at the Faculty of Science and Mathematics using fuzzy modeling, employing the FIS Mamdani method.. The twelve aspects assessed in the questionnaire are grouped into four competencies with an assessment of 1 (not good), 2 (poor), 3 (good), and 4 (excellent). The average value of each aspect of each competency is used to derive the fuzzy value of each competency. The value of each competence is then used to get the final value of lecturer performance evaluation, to be back-processed into the crisp value which is translated through membership function. Based on the criteria set by the faculty, i.e. “Poor”, “Fair”, and “Good”, the results show that the performance evaluation of all lecturers are "Fair" towards "Good", but when the assessment uses the average value, all lecturer have a “Good” performance except one lecturer who shows “Fair” performance.

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.
