Nurul Fadillah Sari, Fatni Mufit, Hidayanti Hidayanti, Letmi Dwiridal — Sat, 30 Dec 2023 03:22:04 +0000

This study aims to (1) Analyze the application used for making animated test questions. (2) Analyzing the use of animated test questions based on education level. (3) Analyzing the use of animated format test questions based on physics learning materials. (4) Analyzing the use of animated test questions on students' understanding of physics concepts. This study uses a systematic review method using 16 national and international journal articles from 2010-2022. The results of this study showed that: (1) The application used to make test questions in animation format is very large, but Macromedia Flash is more often used. (2) Animation test questions are widely applied or used at the Senior High School level. (3) For material in physics learning, animated test questions are more often applied to the concept of light refraction. (4) Animation test questions can help students to improve their understanding of concepts. The study results show that the animated format test questions affect students' conceptual understanding. However, in reality, when carrying out the test, the format of the questions presented is still in the form of a paper, and a test is in the form of an arguments. Teachers do not know how the influence of the use of animated test questions on students' understanding of concepts, as well as what applications can be used in making animated test questions

Development of Integrated Physics Learning Media for Al-Quran Verses Based on Macromedia Flash

Tue, 16 Jan 2024 05:25:20 +0000

This study aims to determine the feasibility of learning media based on Macromedia flash-integrated Al-Qur'an verses developed by MAN 1 Konawe students. This research is a type of research and development (research and development) with a development design, according to Borg & Gall. The trial participants were 21 students of class X MAN 1 Konawe; the data collection instrument used a questionnaire, interviews, test questions, and observation sheets. Data analysis and product development trials consist of qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis. The results of this study indicate that Integrated Flash Macromedia-Based Physics Learning Media with Qur'anic Verses at the developed MAN 1 Konawe school can be declared to meet the aspects of validity reliability that are good and feasible to use.

Measurement of X-Ray Radiation Exposure in Thorax Examinations at Radiology Installation of Wajak Husada General Hospital

Sri Sugiarti, Farida Wahyuni, Dewi Okta Nur Anisa — Thu, 18 Jan 2024 03:45:39 +0000

The Study aims to measure radiation exposure on X-ray aircraft on chest radiography at the Radiology installation at Wajak Husada General Hospital. Measurements were carried out on the X-ray source tube and in the X-ray room environment at Wajak Husada General Hospital. This research aims to determine the value of radiation exposure and whether the examination room is safe for workers and the general public. Data collection in this research was direct observation in the radiology examination room; then, radiation exposure using a survey meter at points around the X-ray room. The highest exposure to X-ray aircraft was in the control panel room, which was 0.19 µSv/h or 0.88 mSv/y and was still below the dose limit value set by the Regional Head of Bapeten Regulation Number 4 of 2020, namely the dose limit value for workers of 20 mSv/ year and the community it is one mSv/year, concluded that the X-ray aircraft and environment are suitable for use and safe to occupy to implement radiology services.

Islamic Values-Oriented Mathematical Physics Module: Design, Validity, Practicality

Muhammad Nasir, Sri Mawaddah, Rian Akbar — Mon, 29 Jan 2024 03:47:47 +0000

Mathematical physics has been known as a complex subject for most students to understand. The Islamic values-oriented mathematical physics module was developed to support students learning independently and help them improve intellectually and spiritually in mathematical physics courses. This research aimed to determine the Islamic values-oriented mathematical physics module's development process, validity, and practicality. This research is R&D based on the 4D model, which consists of four steps, namely define (needs analysis and curriculum review), design (module design), develop (module validation with material, media, and tafsir expert validators), and disseminate (student and lecturer responses test). Two aspects related to the developed module are identified: validity and practicality. The validity aspect is obtained from the assessment results by expert validators.

Meanwhile, the practicality aspect was obtained from the responses from the lecturers and students who took the mathematical physics course. The novelty of the research is integrating Islamic values into the mathematical physics module so students can improve intellectual and spiritual aspects. The results of the assessment by the expert validator show that the Islamic-values-oriented mathematical physics module is valid and practical to use, with a percentage of assessment by material experts of 94% (excellent), assessment by media experts of 92% (very valid), and assessment by tafsir experts 97% (perfect). Meanwhile, the students' evaluation of the practicality of the module was 96% (efficient), and the evaluation by the lecturers was 97% (efficient). Further researchers are advised to develop research results by involving more research subjects with physics education students from other universities.

Exploring Project-Based Learning: Physics E-Posters in Pre-Service Science Education

Ogi Danika Pranata, Putri Dwi Sundari, Dady Sulaiman — Wed, 03 Apr 2024 02:58:34 +0000

This study investigates the implementation of project-based learning, explicitly focusing on designing and presenting e-posters within the Basic Physics course for pre-service science teachers, with a particular emphasis on pre-service biology teachers. Descriptive and correlational quantitative methods were utilized to analyze data collected from 16 participating students throughout 16 sessions. The assessment perspectives of lecturers, peers, and self-assessment were examined, revealing disparities in scores and highlighting the importance of multiple assessment sources. Recognition through awards was granted to students with exemplary performance, while guidance sessions led by the instructor significantly correlated with improvements in poster design. Analysis of poster content indicated a focus on fundamental physics concepts, mainly mechanics, with students utilizing various information sources. The study underscores the effectiveness of project-based learning in promoting student engagement, skill development, and conceptual understanding in physics education.
