Metaverse-Based Learning in the Digital Era

2023-12-31T21:10:10+07:00

Digital disruption in the world of education refers to the impact of technology on traditional education systems and models, where the current education system is felt to need to be adjusted to the progress of the times and the needs of students. The business model of education in this digital era requires the innovation and creativity of teachers. After the Covid 19 pandemic, in addition to providing challenges in the world of education, it also provides an opportunity where students and educators are accustomed to online learning applications, teleconference applications, or collaboration applications that were previously not or rarely used by the world of Education. Many apps have been created to make online learning easier. Metaverse has been around since 2010, but due to the pandemic, the use of metaverse in learning is again being used with the development of Virtual reality, extended reality, and augmented reality technology. These three technologies can display a virtual environment just like the original environment. The method used to design metaverse-based learning is to use the ADDIE research and development model while learning development follows the stages of the Dick and Carey model. The results of field trials using survey methods and experiments on 20 junior high school students for one semester using the metaverse, resulted in a score of 4.82 with the conclusion of excellent learning material, students felt very happy, motivated to complete tasks, and always followed the learning stages designed in the form of games. Implementing the metaverse in learning can increase student engagement, creativity, technology skills, collaboration, and interaction as well as improve learning experiences that are more fun and engaging.

Testing the effectiveness of developing a Papuan local culture-oriented game-based science learning model for grade IV elementary school students was tested through the t-test. The results show the value of Sig. (2-tailed) of 0.000 <0.05, then there is a significant difference between science learning outcomes on the pretest and posttest data, so it can be concluded that the Papuan local culture-oriented game-based science learning model is effective for improving learning outcomes for fourth grade elementary school students.

Game-Based Learning and Children’s Digital Literacy to Support Pervasive Learning: A Systematic Reviews

2023-12-31T21:09:34+07:00

In this study, we investigate the impact of game-based learning on children's digital literacy in processing and acquiring information, focusing on the generation of digital natives who excel in responding to multimedia information. Utilizing data mining and the PRISMA Protocol, we conducted a systematic review based on the keywords 'Game-based learning on children’s digital literacy.' Data from the years 2017 to 2019, extracted from Sagepub and Emerald databases, reveal strong empirical support for the enhancement of children's digital literacy, particularly through game-based learning interventions, as evidenced by a significant effect size of 0.66. This translates to children becoming better at deciphering visual cues, understanding audio narratives, and critically evaluating the information presented in a variety of multimedia formats. Furthermore, game-based learning fosters critical thinking and problem-solving skills, keeping children engaged and motivated to learn in this dynamic digital landscape.

Ability to Solve Complex Social Problems of Prospective Teachers according to Gender and Computational Thinking

2023-12-31T21:08:55+07:00

Entering the 21st century, computational thinking has become a basic skill that all students must have. This research aims to determine gender differences in learning outcomes to solve social problems, differences in students' levels of computational thinking by gender, and the influence of students' levels of computational thinking on learning outcomes in solving social problems. This research uses a descriptive verification method with a quantitative analysis approach. The number of research subjects was 256 students, who came from the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Sebelas Maret University. The quantitative data analysis used is based on the results of computational thinking ability tests using the Wilcoxon Test. Further analysis of this research uses K-Means for clustering, while analysis of the relationship between variables uses Spearman's rho. This research shows that there is an influence of gender on learning outcomes for solving social problems, there is no significant relationship between students' level of computational thinking and gender, and there is a significant influence of students' level of computational thinking on learning outcomes for solving social problems. The results of this research show that the two factors above play a large role in influencing student learning outcomes. This capability works in synergy with the computational level of thinking. With the right efforts, growing computational thinking skills can improve students' ability to solve various learning problems.

College Students Expectation Toward Tutor in Distance Education

2024-01-02T20:48:08+07:00

Teacher performance will affect students' endurance, motivation, and spirit during learning. Someone's competence to become a teacher/Tutor is no longer enough by only mastering teaching materials, especially for tutors whose role is more as a facilitator. The purpose of this research is to find out the expectations of college students toward tutors in distance education. This research is qualitative by using a survey method. The aspect measured used an instrument of the Likert scale and then analyzed by using descriptive statistics. Key findings highlight that students recognize the importance of tutors' skills and appreciate the benefits of guided tutorials. There is a notable expectation among students for tutors and the Universitas Terbuka (UT) units to collaborate effectively to enhance tutorial services, which are integral to the learning structure in distance education. The results indicate a positive correlation between the tutors' abilities and the provision of efficient and effective learning support. Students' understanding of tutors' skills, their perception of the benefits of guided tutorials, and their internal consistency in evaluating tutor performance during tutorials are collectively rated as 'good'. This reflects the tutors' successful efforts in assisting students to become independent learners who are self-motivated and actively engaged in the learning process. The study underscores the need for focused tutor training programs aimed at developing competencies that align with students' expectations and the demands of distance education.

History Learning Innovation with Steam Approach

2023-12-31T21:03:25+07:00

So far, history lessons are only textual in nature. For this reason, teachers must start preparing students to face the rapidly changing technological developments. Meanwhile, the need for human resources in the future is to be able to think analytically, collaboratively, and interdisciplinary. For this reason, this research will raise the application of STEAM through Project Based Learning as an innovation in learning history. Researchers use qualitative methods. First, reflection aims to bring students into the context of the problem and provide inspiration to students. At the research stage, more learning processes occur. In this stage, the teacher also guides the discussion more and determines whether students have developed conceptual and relevant understanding. The discovery stage connects research and information known in project preparation. Students begin to study independently and determine what is still unknown. At this stage, the students collaborate to find solutions. At the application stage, students test products made from previously determined conditions. The results obtained are used to improve the previous step. The final step is communication. The communication process is carried out to convey ideas. At this stage, the teacher and colleagues conduct a final assessment. In addition, teachers are also expected to be able to provide appreciation and constructive feedback. The results showed that STEAM in Project Based Learning for history learning proved to be effective in encouraging students' creativity, collaboration, and communication skills. However, this method requires careful planning. Some students are also not familiar with project learning.
