The Effectiveness of Students’ Worksheet of Virtual Laboratory Practice on Dynamic Electricity to Improve Science Process Skill

The purpose of this research is to produce virtual laboratory practicum students' worksheet using PhETsimulations media, which is attractive, useful, and effective to improve students' science process skill. From the potency and problemsgained from the analysis of Physics teachers' responses of Senior High Schools in Lampung Province, Indonesia, 40% of Senior High Schools have laboratory equipment and facilities for real practicum and 80% of Physics teachers need students' worksheet despite in the virtual laboratory forms. Based on the students' need analysis, 100%students need practicum activities. The data collecting technique used wasassessment sheet of material and media experts and questionnaires of attractiveness and usefulness of students' worksheets. The test involved 68 State and Private Senior High School Students inLampung Province, Indonesia. It was obtained that the means of pre-test result = 55 and 44, and post-test result = 89 and 82. The usefulness and attractivenesswere (86,4%) attractive, (84,7%) useful, and effectiveness with N-Gain (g) 0.80 and 0.75. It is considered high classification to improve students' learning achievement. The effectiveness level in improving science process skill is measured from practicum activity score, hypotheses proposal, experiments, data collecting, and conclusion drawing. The means of N-Gain (g) = 0.7, and it is considered high and effective. At the end of the practicum activity, there was a cognitive assessment of the comprehension test results of dynamic electricity concept from both schools. The means score were 89.33 and 86.67, which means that the scores have fulfilledthe minimum criteria of mastery learning (75)

Pengaruh Metakognisi Terhadap Motivasi Dan Penguasaan Konsep Melalui Model Problem Based Learning

Based on observations and interviews with teachers of science physics, it was known that teachers are less familiarize students to discuss a variety of phenomena in daily life related to the subject matter. The workable solution is to apply the model of problem based learning (PBL). This study aims to determine the effect of metacognition skills toward motivation and the influence of metacognition skill toward the mastery of students learning concept trough PBL model. The research was conducted at SMP N 1 Way Jepara , using one class that is VIIIB class with the sample of 32 students and using one-shot case study design. On this research could be concluded that there are the influence of metacognition skills toward students learning motivation using PBL model by 41 % and there are the influence of metacognition skills towards the mastery of student learning concept using PBL models by 19 %.Berdasarkan hasil observasi dan wawancara dengan guru mata pelajaran IPA Fisika, diketahui guru kurang membiasakan siswanya untuk mendiskusikan berbagai fenomena dalam keseharian yang berkaitan dengan materi pelajaran. Adapun solusi yang dapat dilaksanakan yaitu dengan menerapkan model problem based learning (PBL). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui Pengaruh keterampilan metakognisi terhadap motivasi dan penguasaan konsep belajar siswa melalui model PBL. Penelitian ini dilakukan di SMP N 1 Way Jepara, menggunakan satu kelas yaitu kelas VIIIB dengan jumlah sampel 32 siswa dan menggunakan desain one-shot case study. Pada penelitian ini diperoleh kesimpulan terdapat pengaruh keterampilan metakognisi terhadap motivasi belajar siswa menggunakan model PBLsebesar 41% dan terdapat pengaruh keterampilan metakognisi terhadap penguasaan konsep belajar siswa menggunakan model PBL sebesar 19%

Pelaksanaan Bimbingan Dan Konseling Selama Pandemi di SMPN 6 Percut Sei Tuan

This study aims to describe the implementation and implementation of Guidance and Counseling during a pandemic. The approach used is an approach with a descriptive method. The research subjects were Guidance and Counseling Teachers and Students of Class X and XI SMP Negeri 6 Percut Sei Tuan. Data collection techniques used are observation, interviews and documents. The results of the study explain that the implementation and services of BK are not effective. This ineffectiveness is caused by several obstacles and several factors. The main obstacle is the difficulty of communication between the counseling teacher and students because the counseling teacher and students cannot talk face to face or directly. This becomes an obstacle because BK teachers are very difficult to recognize and understand students only from social media. Of course, direct communication and on social media are very different. Other things that become obstacles include: decreased student enthusiasm, lack of student care for BK subjects, decreased immunity, ineffective time, BK teachers who have difficulty recognizing the character of their students, technology and media that are used incorrectly. and economic factors. The factors above have caused the implementation and implementation of Guidance and Counseling to not run effectively at SMP Negeri 6 Percut Sei Tuan
