EFEKTIVITAS PENGGUNAAN MODUL FISIKA TERINTEGRASI STEM (SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, AND MATHEMATICS) MATERI USAHA DAN ENERGI DI SMA

Learning carried out during the pandemic is required to develop technology to support student learning effectively. Solutions for students and teachers to carry out learning effectively by using learning media that students can understand independently at home. Learning media that can support students in independent learning are modules. The module usage by educators related to 21st-century skills to balance the world of education in the modern era can collaborate with models, methods, and approaches in learning, one of which is the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) approach. The purpose of this research is to describe the effectiveness of the STEM integrated physics module. The research method is by giving tests to students in the form of pretest and posttest. The subjects of this study were students of MAN 1 Jember class X MIPA 2 as a limited test and X MIPA 3 broad test. Product testing was conducted by researchers using the One Group Pretest-Posttest design. Then analyzed normalized Gain (N-gain) to determine the effectiveness of the module. The results of the analysis of the effectiveness of the module in the limited test obtained an average N-gain of 0.55 in the medium category, while in the broad test it was 0.71 in the high category. Based on the results of the effectiveness analysis that the STEM integrated physics module is in the effective category. Keyword: Module, STEM, efectivity

Learning Ecologies

A major focus in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) public engagement sector concerns engaging with young people, typically through schools. The aims of these interventions are often to positively affect students’ aspirations towards continuing STEM education and ultimately into STEM-related careers. Most school engagement activities take the form of short one-off interventions that, while able to achieve positive outcomes, are limited in the extent to which they can have lasting impacts on aspirations. In this paper, we discuss various different emerging programmes of repeated interventions with young people, assessing what impacts can realistically be expected. Short series of interventions appear also to suffer some limitations in the types of impacts achievable. However, deeper programmes that interact with both young people and those who influence them over significant periods of time (months to years) seem to be more effective in influencing aspirations. We discuss how developing a theory of change and considering young people’s wider learning ecologies are required in enabling lasting impacts in a range of areas. Finally, we raise several sector-wide challenges to implementing and evaluating these emerging approaches.

Basic Ability

The STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) approach plays an important role in developing students’ abilities. The ability to combine science, technology, technical expertise, and mathematics is a tool that can help human life can be created. Of course, the application of STEM needs to be assisted by teaching materials in the form of Worksheets. With the STEM implementation worksheet, it can be more easily implemented without the lecturer having to explain each material fully. Because it must be students who develop their abilities. Following constructivist learning theory, by constructing one’s knowledge, the knowledge will be stored longer in memory. The ability in STEM is also very important in the current era of globalization. With the rapid advancement of technology, each individual is required to continue to innovate in developing a technology product. The basic ability that students need to have in learning basic physics is to understand a concept. A good understanding of the concept will be very supportive when prospective teachers later teach. It is expected that through the application of STEM, students are directly involved actively in designing and making products, and understanding concepts can be better. Products made by students must be really needed so that they can be used every day. It is better if the product utilizes local wisdom that is around the student environment. The product to be made is to convert the abundant solar thermal energy in Serang into a heater that can be used for cooking. It is a renewable energy because the heat in Serang is sweltering up to 32° C, so it can be used more than just drying. Based on these needs, mak a worksheet STEM based on local wisdom needs to be applied in learning. The results of this study stated that the local wisdom-based STEM worksheet on temperature and heat material for Physics teacher candidates was developed as a learning medium to increase students’ interest and understanding through independent learning.

Abstract During the Italian research assessment exercise (2004–2010), the governmental agency (ANVUR) in charge of its realization performed an experiment on the concordance between peer review and bibliometrics at an individual article level. The computed concordances were at most weak for science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The only exception was the moderate concordance found for the area of economics and statistics. In this paper, the disclosed raw data of the experiment are used to shed light on the anomalous results obtained for economics and statistics. In particular, the data permit to document that the protocol of the experiment adopted for economics and statistics was different from the one used in the other areas. Indeed, in economics and statistics a same group of scholars developed the bibliometric ranking of journals for evaluating articles, managed peer reviews and formed the consensus groups for deciding the final scores of articles after having received the referee’s reports. This paper shows that the highest level of concordance in economics and statistics was an artifact mainly due to the role played by consensus groups in boosting the agreement between bibliometrics and peer review.

Abstract. Communication is an essential part of mathematics and mathematics education. Communication is also a way to share ideas and classify understanding. Geometry in elementary school (SD) on the one hand is a very strategic mathematics study to encourage mathematics learning towards appreciation and experience of learning by making the learning meaningful. Van Hiele suggests that there are three main elements in the teaching of geometry, namely time, teaching materials, and teaching methods applied. One of the things that hinder a student's geometric thinking skills is the teaching methods employed by teachers in the classroom. The role of teachers in the 21st century includes "teacher as learners - who always improve and renew their knowledge". Teachers should be able to create an independent learning atmosphere which captivates and attracts students to learn in a pleasant atmosphere. One technology that can be applied is learning multimedia. Multimedia in learning covers several aspects of the synergy between text, graphics, images and animation. The use of multimedia is expected to enhance the learning of mathematics as it allows a wider exploration and can improve the presentation of mathematical ideas.Keywords: Interactive Multimedia, Geometry, Communication CapabilitiesAbstrak, Komunikasi merupakan bagian yang esensial dari matematika dan pendidikan matematika. Komunikasi juga merupakan cara untuk berbagi gagasan dan mengklasifikasikan pemahaman.Geometri di sekolah dasar (SD) di satu pihak merupakan kajian matematika yang sangat strategis untuk mendorong pembelajaran matematika ke arah apresiasi dan pengalaman matematika dengan cara belajar matematika secara bermakna. Van Hiele mengemukakan bahwa terdapat tiga unsur utama dalam pengajaran geometri, yaitu waktu, materi pengajaran, dan metode pengajaran yang diterapkan. Salah satu hal yang menghambat kemampuan berpikir geometri seorang siswa adalah metode pengajaran yang diterapkan oleh guru di kelas. Peran guru pada abad ke-21 diantaranya adalah “teacher as learners – who always improve and renew theri knowledge”. Guru harus dapat menciptakan suatu pembelarajan yang berpotensi menciptakan suasana belajar mandiri, serta mampu memikat dan menarik siswa untuk belajar dalam suasana yang menyenangkan. Salah satu teknologi yang dapat diterapkan dalam pembelajaran adalah penggunaan multimedia dalam pembelajaran. Multimedia dalam pembelajaran mencakup beberapa aspek yang bersinergi antara teks, grafik, gambar dan animasi. Melalui multimedia diharapkan dapat meningkatkan proses belajar matematika karena memungkinkan eksplorasi yang lebih luas dan dapat memperbaiki penyajian ide-ide matematika.Kata Kunci : Multimedia interaktif, Geometri, Kemampuan Komunikasi

The One

Online mentoring provides an effective means of extracurricular gifted education for talented girls in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Comparative studies on the effectiveness of one-on-one versus group mentoring are lacking, however. The authors investigated this question in the context of a Germany-wide online mentoring program that employed both approaches. Study participants were girls enrolled in high-achiever-track secondary education in Germany ( N = 347) who were mentored online by female academics in STEM for 6 months, in either one-on-one ( N = 156) or group mentoring ( N = 191). It was assumed that the specific many-to-many group-mentoring condition examined in our study would be more effective than the one-on-one mentoring condition with respect to (a) the proportion of STEM communication and (b) the extent of STEM-related networking, both of which are important predictors of successful mentoring. Furthermore, the authors (c) expected more growth in elective intentions for the group-mentoring participants and (d) assumed that participants’ centrality in their respective STEM networks would predict this increase. The study presents empirical support for all four assumptions and thus suggests that the special form of group mentoring examined here may be a more successful measure of extracurricular gifted education for girls in STEM than one-on-one mentoring.

Abstract. Women have a minority position within science, technology, engineering, and mathematics and, consequently, are likely to face more adversities at work. This diary study takes a look at a facilitating factor for women’s research performance within academia: daily work engagement. We examined the moderating effect of gender on the relationship between two behaviors (i.e., daily networking and time control) and daily work engagement, as well as its effect on the relationship between daily work engagement and performance measures (i.e., number of publications). Results suggest that daily networking and time control cultivate men’s work engagement, but daily work engagement is beneficial for the number of publications of women. The findings highlight the importance of work engagement in facilitating the performance of women in minority positions.
