Simulasi Pembelajaran IPA Menggunakan Computer Based Instruction MI Ma’arif Darussalam Plaosan

Learning Natural Sciences (IPA) which is often considered difficult in the learning process takes place, that is, just sitting and listening to the material from the teacher through the lecture method so that students are passive in the process of implementing the learning process. So the purpose of writing this article is to find out the implementation of science learning using Computer Based Instruction through a simulation model. This research uses qualitative research with descriptive analysis method. While in this study using data collection techniques, namely using interviews and documentation. The results showed that at MI Ma'arif Darussalam Plaosan had implemented science learning using Computer Based Instruction through a simulation model with visual media where in the learning process itself the teacher gave concrete or real examples by displaying pictures related to learning when learning. take place. The response and enthusiasm of students is more active. In the simulation model there are role models, namely: explaining, intermediary, mentoring and learning while the learning model is the simulation model itself in four stages which are orientation, training, simulation and debriefing stages

Evaluating the Effects of Computer-Based Instruction on Trial-Based Functional Analyses Procedures

Children who engage in problem behavior are often educated in the public schools. A trial-based functional analysis (TBFA) is an experimental functional analysis whereby conditions are embedded into scheduled activities of the school day to identify environmental variables responsible for problem behavior. To be included in this process, it is important that staff are trained effectively and efficiently. Computer-based instruction (CBI) offers several advantages as a staff training tool including less training time, less required supervision, and permits self-paced and individualized training. The efficacy of CBI on procedures of TBFA to practitioners remains unknown. We evaluated the efficacy of CBI teaching procedures of TBFA with 20 practitioners. Results indicate that CBI is an effective and efficient staff training procedure as post-test scores increased following the CBI training across participants with a mean training duration of less than an hour. Three practitioners successfully implemented four conditions of a TBFA with a confederate following CBI training. Following completion of the study, respondents ranked procedures of the CBI as socially valid.

Penerapan Computer Based Instruction Model Simulasi dalam Pembelajaran IPA Sekolah Dasar

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar kognitif siswa kelas III Sekolah Dasar pada pelajaran IPA. Penelitian ini termasuk dalam Penelitian Tindakan Kelas (Classroom Action Research). Tahapan penelitian ini terdiri dari dua siklus, yang dimana setiap siklus terdapat empat tahapan: (1) perencanaan; (2) pelaksanaan tindakan; (3) tahap observasi dan evaluasi, dan; (4) refleksi. Tindakan yang diberikan untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar kognitif siswa adalah dengan mengimplementasikan computer based instruction model simulasi. Hasil Penelitian Tindakan Kelas menunjukkan bahwa ketuntasan klasikal siklus I yaitu 75% mengalami peningkatan pada siklus II sebesar 83.3%. Demikian pula dengan aktivitas belajar siswa terjadi peningkatan dari siklus I yaitu memperoleh skor 47.5 dengan kategori cukup aktif, pada siklus II menjadi 62.5 dengan kategori aktif. Sedangkan skor aktivitas guru juga mengalami peningkatan yaitu dari siklus I memperoleh skor 14.5 berkategori sangat baik, pada siklus II memperoleh skor 17.5 berkategori sangat baik. Dari hasil yang diperoleh dalam penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa penerapan computer based instruction model simulasi dapat meningkatkan hasil belajar IPA siswa kelas III SD tahun pelajaran 2014/2015
