The Development of Viscosity Practice Tools Based on Information and Communication Technology Using Arduino and Android on Static Fluid Material for Grade XI Senior High School

Abstract

A difficult practicum activity has become a problem with students’ activities and lack of use on ICT-based practice tools, especially Android. The purpose of this research is to develop physics learning media in the form of practical tools and Android applications on static fluid material with a focus on viscosity. This research is development research by adopting the Borg & Gall development model. At the initial research and information gathering stage, the problem and needs analysis activities are carried out. In the planning stage, an initial design is carried out. During the initial product format development phase, the prototype is designed as a manifestation of the defined ideas and ideas. In the initial trial phase, the media are tested on material experts and media experts and then evaluated. At the field trial stage, the media were tested on a small scale with 30 respondents. Data obtained through the observation method were analyzed descriptively qualitatively. While the validation data were analyzed descriptively qualitative and quantitative. The average score of material expertise was 79.78% (good), media expertise was 82.59% (good), small scale test was 84.78% (good). So it can be concluded that this application is suitable for use as a medium for learning physics.

Development of Internet of Things Based Calorimeter Practicum Tool on Temperature and Heat

“…The development of information technology has also produced many variations in the amount of media that contains information and knowledge that can be learned. Students and educators can choose a variety of media that can be studied according to the needs [8].…”

Development of Arduino-Based Rotating Wheel as a Physics Learning Media of Circular Motion

“…The use of Arduino in physics experiments includes dynamic fluid material pitot tube props and venturimeters (Herdayanti, Rahmatsyah, & Manurung, 2020), static fluid viscosity materials that are related to the use of ICT. (Sandjaja et al, 2020).…”
