This study aims to (1) produce an android-based Physics learning media on static fluids materials for senior high school students, (2) know whether the android-based Physics learning media is able to improve the students cognitive learning achievement viewed from the motivation. This study is kind of Research and Development. The product of the development was applied in the experiment class, while the conventional learning was applied in the control class. This study used quasi experiment method by applying the nonequivalent control-group design. This study consisted of (1) planning, (2) designing the product, and (3) developing the product. The study results of this research were that android-based physics learning media is rated good by the materials experts, media experts, Physics teachers, colleagues, and students, and stated as appropriate to be used implemented as physics learning media. Then the research concluded that the Android-based Physics learning media is not able to improve the cognitive learning achievement viewed from the learning motivation.
The idea of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) is very developed lately. However, many people do not understand what, why and how ESD is. Therefore, the current article discusses obvious issue as an area for attention and related to ESD, why ESD should be, and how ESD is implemented in education, especially in science education, as well as efforts that can be made to make the implementation of ESD successful. This research is included in the parameters of the content analysis theme. This research-based paper uses literature review from various journals, articles and other text books. ESD is a new approach in the world of education. ESD consists of three dimensions, economic, social and environmental. ESD is incredibly important to apply in science learning for the success of the SDGs. There are several notable elements in the implementation of ESD in science in Indonesia, namely the government (P4TK IPA), Professional Associations such as the Indonesian Science Educators Association, Science Subject Teachers' Conferences, and Communities in the midst of society.Keywords: education for sustainable development (ESD), sustainable development goals (SDGs)
Assessment of the learning process and assessment of learning outcomes are two very important things in education. Assessment of processes and results is a part that blends with the learning process activities. Assessment of learning processes and results is used as a reference to improve the overall learning process. One part of the assessment of learning outcomes is a test.
Schools still use multiple choice tests as a measure to determine the success of students. However, schools in this case the teachers have not been able to determine the quality and feasibility of the questions that are used well. Moreover, not many teachers understand how to analyze items in a computerized manner. Supposedly, before a double question is used as a measure of a learning process, the thing to do is analyze the problem. So that it can be determined questions that have good quality, questions that must be corrected, and which questions should be discarded.
The training activity analyzed the items with computerization for the teachers at Muhammadiyah Bangkinang Senior High School to run well and smoothly. This training provides knowledge and understanding of the importance of conducting item analysis at this time.
Thus this activity is important, because the school in this case the teacher gets the knowledge and skills in analyzing question items through computarization, namely using the software Quest. So that in the future teachers will easily make improvements to the problems at school.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
