Effective Learning Strategies in Biology Online Learning to Anticipate Covid-19: A Literature Review

Abstract

The Coronavirus disease (Covid-19) has a very broad impact and continues to spoil all aspect of life and presents its challenges, especially in the world of education. All forms of conventional learning activities are replaced by distance learning which is known online. The application of online learning itself requires readiness for various parties, both from teachers, students, and parents. Educators must be able to teach by utilizing complex online media that are packaged effectively, easily accessible, and of course, make it easier for students to understand the material. Creativity in designing learning strategies is the key to the success of an educator to be able to motivate students to remain enthusiastic in distance learning and not become a psychological burden. This research method was carried out by conducting a literature review of 40 journals. The literature on effective learning strategies to support biology online learning. This research technique uses a literature analysis. The results of the analysis show that an effective online biology learning strategy to be used or applied while remaining student-centered is PjBL learning, and blended learning assisted by online platforms, such as elearning, and Google Classroom. The application of these learning strategies can also improve cognitive, creative learning outcomes, thinking skills, learning satisfaction, and students learning biology independence. The platforms that can support online biology learning are education perfect, Ruangguru, and zenius education

“…Based on a preliminary study on the implementation of learning in the future, the covid-19 pandemic learning adapts to online learning. That is supported by research from Alzamil (2021), Rafique et al (2021), Wang et al (2021); due to the COVID-19 pandemic, face-to-face learning adapts to online learning in many parts of the world (Alzamil, 2021;Rafique et al, 2021;Wang et al, 2021) (Andyhapsari & Djukri, 2021;Kim et al, 2021;Lastariwati et al, 2021). supported by research by Nilamsari et al (2016), Nofrida et al (2020, Ramdhani et al (2020); based on field observations and interviews, efforts need to be made media (Nilamsari et al, 2016;Nofrida et al, 2020;Ramdhani et al, 2020).…”

“…But online learning has been a long time developed (Nguyen, 2015;Teodorescu, 2015;Ventura, 2015). I am learning online as part of education technology (edutech) through computer media and Smartphones (Andyhapsari & Djukri, 2021;Kim et al, 2021;Lastariwati et al, 2021). The Industrial revolution 4.0 drives process changes education that applies technology in learning and is expected to get graduates competent in utilizing information technology and communication.…”

Is There Constructivism in Online Interaction in Biology Teaching and Learning?

“…Jean Piaget, a Swiss psychologist, popularised constructivism as a fundamental concept in knowledge acquisition. This process is regarded as a dynamic process that the learner must lead through experience, discussion, and reflection (Andyhapsari, et al, 2021;Honebein, 1996;Leidner and Jarvenpaa, 1995). According to constructivism, learners construct knowledge rather than just passively take in information.…”

“…Constructivist learning has risen as a subject in biology because it emphasises the five E's elements of Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate about the phenomena, processes, or systems that surround them (Ahmad, 2009). Biology learning requires more than just the ability to explore and think critically that emphasise the importance of mastering skills such as critical, creative, communicative, and problem-solving thinking (Andyhapsari & Djukri, 2021). The merger of a new virtual platform for online teaching in Malaysia caused various issues for both educators and learners.…”
