Succesfull Learning in the Middle of Pandemic COVID-19

Abstract. COVID 19 Has become an epidemic that changes the way of human life. Startingfrom small things so that we care more about our health. Like washing hands before and after doing activities, to wear a mask when leaving the house. Not only that, but COVID-19 has also demanded that we stay away from the crowd and keep our distance. This situation results in an educational policy implemented in the network (e-learning). However, please note that the implementation of e-learning has not run optimally. Several obstacles result in learning not going as expected. Such as, teachers who must quickly change the learning system, students who stammer for so many tasks, and parents who are increasingly stressed in accompanying their children in learning material delivered by teachers through elearning. Through this paper the author wants to convey any obstacles that occur in the field during e-learning takes place, how to resolve these obstacles, and what applications are easy to use by teachers, parents, and students in the success of learning during a COVID 19 pandemic supported by the results of research that has been there is.

The Development of E-Student Worksheet on Environmental Pollution to Improve Critical Thinking Skills of Junior High School Students

This study purposed to develop an E-student worksheet on environmental pollution material to improve the critical thinking skills of junior high school students. E-student worksheet is an electronic-based student worksheet that utilizes the internet in its application. E-student worksheets can create various kinds of content, both visual and audiovisual, to train and assist students in finding concepts through the learning process. The development research method used a 4-D model, but only three stages were carried out: defining, designing, and developing. This research was conducted on seventh-grade students at SMPIT Al Ghozali Jember. The instruments used in this study were validation sheets, learning implementation sheets, critical thinking skills tests, and student response questionnaires. The results of this study indicated that the E-student worksheet had very valid criteria with a value of 94%. The implementation of learning showed very high criteria with a value of 92%. The effectiveness of learning had effective criteria with an average N-gain value of 0.70, and student responses had a good criterion, with a value of 77.3%. It can be concluded that the E-student worksheet on environmental pollution material could improve students' critical thinking skills in science learning in junior high schoo

THE APPLICATION OF EDMODO TO IMPROVE WRITING SKILL

The purpose of this experimental study is to investigate the effect of using Edmodo to improve English writing skill by using Edmodo and Traditional method. This experiment was implemented to the senior high school students with two classes, two hours per week, over 3 meetings. Seventy two students participated in this study, with 36 students in the experimental class and 36 others in the control class. The researcher applied pretest and posttest in writing skill with quasi-experimental design. The experimental class was treated learning used Emodo method, whereas the control class received learning used traditional method. The data was analyzed by means, standard deviations, and man u Whitney. Statistical results revealed that the experimental group did much better than the control class. But, in using Edmodo on learning English language there is no significant effect to the class which was treated using Edmodo on improving writing skill at the tenth grade students of SMAN 13 Kabupaten Tangerang.

Encouraging learning quality through blended learning model

The development of information technology makes educational institutions have to improvise in relevant learning models in order to compete with other higher education in the world. However, it has been noted that Islamic higher education has not been able to adapt quickly in this context. This study aims to explore the use of blended learning models to improve the quality of learning at public Islamic universities in Indonesia. By collecting data from classroom learning practices directly and analyzing them descriptively qualitatively, this study found that the Blended Learning Model was implemented effectively through Website Based Learning and Edmodo Applications. In addition, this study also found that the use of both types of approaches can improve the effectiveness and quality of learning in the classroom

Profile of Critical Thinking Skills in Science Learning Class at Junior High School on Additive Materials

Critical thinking skills have recently been intensified in learners at all levels of education. Learners are expected to have good critical thinking skills in order to face competition in the world of work. The research conducted was descriptive quantitative with the aim of classifying the critical thinking skills of students. The research subjects were students of class VIII Junior High School in Kediri Regency in the 2022/2023 academic year as many as 20 students. Data collection was conducted through interviews and critical thinking skills tests. The critical thinking skills test instrument includes 5 indicators consisting of 15 multiple choice test items. Analysis was carried out on the test results of students on each indicator and categorised into five critical thinking categories consisting of very high, high, medium, low, and very low. The results showed an average achievement score of 42.08%, interpretation ability 23.47%, analysis ability 50.21%, inference ability 62.31%, evaluation ability 41.10%, and explanation ability 33.33%. Based on these results, it is evident that students' critical thinking skills still need to be trained in order to be improved. Thus, teachers need to implement meaningful science learning in order to improve students' critical thinking skills
