Abstract

The condition of the Covid-19 pandemic which requires staying at home has made many changes, especially in the field of education. Semarang State University (UNNES) and Unika Santu Paulus Ruteng are universities affected by the Covid-19 pandemic so that online learning has an effect on the graduation of old students.  Thesis and scientific publications are quite a big obstacle for students who are currently thesising.  Scientific articles including the publication of scientific papers are one of the causes of this because it is still a scary thing for students. UNNES and Unika Santu Santu Paulus Ruteng students who are carrying out S1 research (thesis / final project) are very much scattered throughout the study program. This service is carried out to overcome these problems, both in Unika and UNNES. The Technical Guidance Method is used in this service in overcoming these problems which are carried out online because the spread of the Omicron variant of Covid-19 and the distance between the two universities is very far. This devotion produces the output of articles created by trainees. In the article, it is found that a) the scientific article in the aspects of completeness is in the good group, b) the content of the draft article is in the excellent, good, and quite good group.

Abstract

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, all teaching and learning activities must change to online learning and results in students being stuck on their gadgets and accessing information or content unrelated to the lesson. Consequently, this creates an attitude of students who tend to be passive and unaware of the surrounding environment and local culture. Moreover, the learning material provided by the teacher is hard to understand by students because it is only in the form of text without sufficient explanation. Therefore, this situation affects students' learning outcomes. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the ethnoscience-based discovery learning model assisted by online learning videos on students. This study uses the Pre-Experimental research method: One Group Pretest–Posstest. The sample in this study are all fifth-grade students at SDN Semirejo 02 with a total of 25 students using Non Probability Sampling with saturation sampling technique. The data is obtained through posttest, interviews, observations, and documentation. The data analysis techniques in this study are classical completeness test, paired sample t-test, and N-Gain test. The results show that there is a significant increase in student learning outcomes as indicated by the results of the t-test which is the tcount (15,868) ttable (1,711), and the N-Gain value of 0.49 which is included in the medium effectiveness. The learning model can also improve the affective assessment of students in the aspects of being careful, accurate, and independent. Therefore, this learning makes students enthusiastic in participating in learning. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the ethnoscience-based discovery learning model assisted by online learning videos is effective on student learning outcomes.

Abstract

A training activity was conducted in a technical high school aimed at promoting the health and safety culture in chemistry laboratories. 84 students were involved. Three seminar meetings and three laboratory workshops were held. At the beginning of the activity (T0) and at the end (T1) the following tools were given to the students: a questionnaire on the topics covered by the training activity; a questionnaire containing the general risk propensity scale and some additional questions relating to the perception of risk. A comparison of the data between T0 and T1 revealed an overall improvement in students’ ability to identify specific hazards, but it also highlighted the need to improve the good laboratory practices. Students tend to attribute a greater awareness to themselves than they are willing to acknowledge in their peers. It emerged a more effective promotion of risk-awareness rather than risk-management, as predictable, considering the short intervention time.
