Implementasi Pembelajaran Fisika Berbasis Laboratorium Virtual terhadap Keterampilan Proses Sains dan Persepsi Mahasiswa

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui penerapan pembelajaran fisika berbasis media laboratorium virtual, Keterampilan Proses Sains (KPS), dan persepsi mahasiswa pada mata kuliah fisika dasar. Metode penelitian menggunakan pre-eksperimental design dan teknik purposive sample digunakan untuk memilih sampel yaitu kelas pendidikan fisika dan pendidikan matematika Universitas Papua. Instrumen dalam penelitian ini yaitu lembar observasi dan penilaian KPS serta angket persepsi mahasiswa yang dinilai di akhir pembelajaran. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan persentase KPS yang diobservasi selama perkuliahan 86,4% ± SD 12,7 meliputi aspek keterampilan menggunakan alat, mengambil data, dan mengkomunikasikan hasil kegiatan. KPS berdasarkan hasil analisis lembar kerja mahasiswa diperoleh 77,5% ± SD 5,9 meliputi keterampilan merumuskan masalah, menyatakan praduga sementara, mengidentifikasi variabel, mengungkapkan pengertian variabel, mengklasifikasi data, menginterpretasikan data, memformulasikan model, menghubungkan antar data, dan menarik kesimpulan. KPS keseluruhan yaitu 81,95% atau kategori sangat baik. Sedangkan persepsi mahasiswa yaitu 78,53% ± SD 4,9 menunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa sangat setuju terhadap kegiatan pembelajaran yang dilakukan. This study aims to determine the learning application of physics based virtual laboratory, Science Process Skills (SPS), and the perception of students on basic physics course. The research method using pre-experimental design and purposive sample technique used to select sample of physics and mathematics education classes at the University of Papua. Instruments in this research are observation sheet and SPS assessment and student perception questionnaire which assessed at the end of learning. The results showed the percentage of SPS were observed during the lecture 86.4% ± SD 12.7 covering aspects of skills using the tool, retrieve data, and communicate the results of activities. SPS is based on the analysis worksheet students obtained 77.5% ± SD 5.9 includes the skills to formulate the problem, stating the presumption whilst, identifying variables, expressing understanding of variables, classifying the data, interpret the data, formulate a model, linking between data and draw conclusions. SPS students is 81.95% or category very well. While the perception of students that is 78.53% ± SD 4.9 indicates that the student could not agree on the learning undertaken.
