“…Relate to the strength of project based learning to enhance the comprehend the lesson was researched by Rauduvaite (2015) show that "the contribution of project-based learning to (self) development of learners' general and subject competencies has been widely acknowledged". Problem-based learning, visual programming and project are technologies that can potentially help leaner to perform better in the introduction programming course, in turn effect their performance in project (Topalli and Cagiltay, 2018). Through this model, students can explore their ability to think creatively and logically to solve the project.…”

This study aimed at anlyzing the influence of project-based learning that aided matrix laboratory toward college student’s creative thinking skills and the influence of science generic skills toward the relationship between project -based learning model that aided matrix laboratory and college student’s creative thinking skills. The method used in this research was pre-experiment method with design is one shot case study. Data analyzed by regression test with moderating variable. The Results of the analysis found that (1) there is the influence of project based learning model that aided matrix laboratory toward college student's creative thinking skills (44.3%); (2) there is the influence of science generic skills to the relationship between project-based learning model that aided matrix laboratory and college student’s creative thinking skills (28.6%). The science generic skills had been contributed to strengthen the relationship between project-based learning model that aided matrix laboratory and college students’s creative thinking skills.<pre> </pre>Keywords: college students’s creative thinking skills, matrix laboratory, project-based learning model

“…We also prove the excavation of problems from several researchers who said that basic programming learning has many obstacles and tends to be difficult for students to learn, which research has been delivered by [4][5] [6] [7][8] [9]. We see that the average researcher agrees that learning basic programming is not easy.…”

Basic programming is one subject that tends to be difficult for students to learn. Along with the development of technology, several researchers have provided solutions to solve this problem, by developing educational games, educational media, interactive learning media, and other auxiliary media. However, on average they have not used or adhered to the syntax of various existing learning models. This study focuses on designing educational media that uses the problem-posing learning model to study the material of branching control structures in basic programming learning which is recommended as a learning medium for vocational high school students. Educational media named TOLSYASUPI-EduMed. We use the highest type of research and development (RD), the level 4 that we adopted to be adapted into a number of steps that are in line with the needs of this research area. Observation techniques are used as a form of generative research which is a type of user experience research, to explore information before designing a product/application. The side that we highlight here is how the form of educational media design by following the syntax of the problem-posing learning model. Then do an A/B testing which is assessed by experts to choose the best design with results that are type B designs with a percentage of 90.9%. We also state the analysis of the functional aspects of educational media to strengthen the validity of this design idea.

“…The learning systems for computer programming employed different learning modes, for example, an C++ object-oriented programming laboratory course with framework-assisted is a highly effective way for students to broadening and deepening their object-oriented programming skills [6]. Scratch, one of the most widely used programming environments using functional programming approach, is a learning tool with a drag-and-drop interactive environments [7]. But a simple interface of drag-and-drop interaction is not enough, and it may lead students to build without considering reusability, so in the programming learning system, computational thinking as an important part is introduced, students can design their own solutions [8].…”

With the rapid development of virtual reality technology (VR), application systems based on VR have been demonstrated in wide fields, which therefore make it attractive to many university students. The process of learning VR requires intensive programing and intuitive observation as well as strict understanding of basic concepts, significantly different to that of other courses. The current widely used framework of learning system is not suitable to the VR learning. In this paper, we present a learning platform based on Unity 3D for VR learning. This system combines knowledge learning, real-time interaction between virtual scene control and C# writing/compiling. Compared with other learning systems, this system can greatly promote the learning enthusiasm and efficiency for C# programming in 3D VR applications.
