Peran Guru Akuntansi dalam Mewujudkan Empat Pilar Pembelajaran melalui Accounting Simulation

The results of scientific thinking aims to provide insight for accounting teachers in optimizing its role to achieve the four pillars of learning through accounting simulation. The four pillars of learning consists of learning to know, learning to do, learning to be, and learning to live together. Accounting implementation of learning has experienced fairly rapid growth as evidenced by the implementation of a wide range of innovative learning models. Learners can achieve many accomplishments in the field of accounting in both the national and International levels, but after that learners have difficulty applying their knowledge to work using accounting science, both for themselves as well as in public life That is because learning accounting for only focuses on only two pillars of learning are learning to know and learning to do it, has not reached the pillars of learning to be and learning to live together. Through accounting simulation, the accounting teacher should show their creativity to show the real condition of life of the community into the classroom. The involvement of learners in simulating these conditions are expected to form a strong understanding of accounting concepts, so that students can apply the knowledge in accounting both for himself as well as in social life

Structural Model of Simulation – Social Constructionist Perspective

The purpose of this study is to establish a viable structural model of simulation in learning from the social constructionist perspective. The study is based on one of my empirical studies about knowledge construction in learning community and also the researches on simulation from the interdisciplinary fields. The findings indicate that simulation is a process of designing and practicing a model generated from the representational structure of the real world and modifying the model according to the specific contexts. Simulation is useful for gaining analogous knowledge, knowledge that has similar or relevant structures between the simulatee and simulator

Advance of the design of a computer program for Macroeconomic´s Equilibria teaching

Los modelos macroeconómicos de equilibrio general son una herramienta básica para comprender el funcionamiento de la economía, como se relacionan las principales variables macroeconómicas y el efecto final de las políticas económicas. La enseñanza de estos modelos se realiza fundamentalmente mediante un sistema de ecuaciones matemáticas y en el uso de gráficos concatenados que representan los diversos mercados que intervienen en la economía. Sin embargo, el modo en que estos gráficos son tradicionalmente enseñados no permite al alumno comprender fácilmente el modo en que éstos se relacionan y ver los cambios que se producen en las curvas. El programa de simulación “Equilibrios Macroeconómicos” permite superar estas dificultades ya que los alumnos pueden visualizar fácilmente los cambios en las curvas cuando los parámetros del modelo varían. Ello permite asociar los cambios de dichos valores, a los efectos económicos derivados de los mismos y comprender los efectos finales de las políticas económicas.General equilibrium macroeconomic models are a basic tool for understanding the functioning of the economy, how the main macroeconomic variables are related to and the final effect of economic policies. Teaching of these models is essentially done through a system of mathematical equations and through the use of concatenated graphs which represent the markets involved in the economy. However, the way these graphs are traditionally taught does not allow the learner to easily understand how they are related and visualise changes in the curves. The simulation program "macroeconomic equilibrium" overcomes these difficulties because, through it, the students can easily visualise the changes in these curves when the model’s parameter values are modified. This allows to associate changes in these values with the economic effects and so to understand the final effects of economic policies

Effect of Computer Simulation and Jigsaw Technique in Teaching Reproductive System in Human in Senior Secondary Schools Minna Metropolis, Niger State

The conventional method of teaching is most common in Nigeria and researchers have shown that this method has led to poor performance of students in Biology and in other subjects. Researchers have been able to ascertain that students will learn best when they participate in the teaching-learning process. This study examined the effects of Computer simulation and jigsaw technique on the performance of senior secondary school students in Biology in Minna metropolis, Niger state. The study also investigated gender differences in the performance of Male and Female students in Biology. The sample used consists of seventy-eight (78) Senior Secondary (SSII) Biology students. Twenty-six (26) students consisting of thirteen (13) males and thirteen (13) females were randomly selected from each school. The schools were randomly assigned to Experimental group 1, Experimental group 2 and Control group. Experimental group 1 (n=26) was treated with jigsaw technique, experimental group 2 (n=26) was treated with computer simulation, while the control group (n=26) was treated with convectional teaching method. Quasi-experimental design employing pre-test, treatment and post-test was adopted. The test instrument used for the study was a twenty (20) multiple-choice Biology Achievement Test (BAT) questions. The test had a reliability index of 0.72 determined using split- half reliability approach.  The data collected were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), t-test, mean, standard deviation and mean gains. Three null hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance. Treatments used had significant effects on students’ Post-test achievement score. Students exposed to Computer simulation and jigsaw technique performed better than their counterparts who were taught with conventional teaching method (F=8.811, df=2, 75 P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the performance of the Male and Female students taught with both Computer simulation and jigsaw technique. Based on the findings, it was recommended, among others, that biology teachers should adopt computer simulation technique and jigsaw technique in teaching Biology concepts in view of its high facilitative effect on students’ performanc

Effects of simulation teaching technique on achievement of students in physics concepts in Buuri-east sub-county Kenya

Introduction: Physics is a science subject that is fundamental for developments in any country. Students’ achievement in Physics concepts in the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (K.C.S.E) has been below average. Most physics concepts are abstract in nature and the techniques used to teach do not allow learners to conceptualize such concepts. This has led to poor student achievement in physics. Purpose: The purpose of the study is to investigate effect of simulation teaching technique on secondary school students’ physics concepts achievement in Buuri East sub-county, Meru County, Kenya.  Methods: Solomon four non-equivalent control group design was used. Both purposive and stratified sampling techniques were used to select four co-educational schools that were used in the study. The sample of the study consisted of 123 form two students. Physics Achievement Test (PAT) was used to collect data on students’ achievement in Physics. The instrument was validated and pilot tested for use in data collection. KR-20 was used to estimate the reliability of PAT, a coefficient of 0.84 was found. Data were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics, which included mean score, t-test, and ANOVA. The hypotheses were tested at 0.05, alpha level of significance. Findings: The results showed that the difference in physics achievement was statistically significant in favor of experimental group. There was no statistically significant difference in the achievement between male and female students in physics, based on the results. Recommendations: it was recommended that physics teachers embrace the use of simulation in teaching. The government and education stakeholders should encourage the use of simulation teaching technique in teaching physics in secondary schools
