Motor learning in preschool education is very important to be a concern because it has an impact on the growth and development of children, and their mental abilities. This study aims to design and implement motor learning measuring tools using sensor technology for preschool education. This measuring instrument is expected to have a good performance in assessing motion in children, such as running, walking, and jumping. This type of research is development research with three stages, namely, phase I needs analysis and designing motor learning measuring tools, phase II, implementation of motor learning measuring tools, and developing motor learning measuring tools, phase III, evaluating of motor learning measuring tools and dissemination. However, this research is only limited to the stage of designing and implementing motor learning measuring tools. This research involved instrumentation experts and Kindergarten students, with a total sample of 65 students, using the purposive sampling technique. The result of this study is a sensor technology-based motor learning measuring instrument that can make an objective, easy and practical assessment. This measuring instrument can measure motor skills in locomotor movements, namely, running, walking, and jumping. Furthermore, the results of the implementation showed an increase in the motor skills of children aged for the better. So it is hoped that this measuring tool can be used by the wider community in an effort to improve preschool education learning.
This paper is part of a dissertation study that aims to reveal the level of validity and practicality of guided discovery learning (GDL) model developed for senior high school chemistry learning. This research and development study used 4D instructional design model. Instruments used were observation sheets and questionnaires. The product was validated by 12 experts and tested on 8 chemistry teachers and 96 students in three public senior high schools in Padang, Indonesia in 2016/2017 academic year. Observation results were analyzed by percentage technique while data of validity and practicality of GDL-PK model were analyzed with Cohen’s kappa formula. Analysis showed that the average values of kappa moment (k) were 0.87 for validity test and 0.91 for practicality test belonging to very high degree category. Analysis of observation result showed that the average percentages of model implementation were 94% in SMAN X Padang, 97% in SMAN Y Padang, and 87% in SMAN Z Padang having very high degree category. Results showed that GDL-PK model was valid and practical and could be fully implemented by teachers and students in chemistry learning. Therefore, the developed GDL-PK model was feasible as teachers’ and prospective teachers’ considerations for senior high school chemistry learning.
Abstract— The This study aims to design a motor skill training tool for children using sensor-based agility components in pgysical education learning. This study uses a research and development design. the materials used are Arduino, Connector, LED, Sensor tool, Power button, and Tool cover. After the product design is made, Collecting research data by conducting direct interviews with experts. it will then be validated by a competent expert. In this study, we asked for validation from three experts, namely: (1) evaluation and exercise evaluation (2) instrumentation physicist (3) motor skills expert. Collecting research data by conducting direct interviews with experts. Based on the expert validation test, the design of skill training tools using sensor-based agility components gets effective results, so that they can be used to carry out motor skills exercises. The importance of motor skills as the basis for every child's active life, with the help of tools to help children to encourage themselves to practice, Design of motor skills training tools with sensor-based agility components has the potential and effectiveness to train children's motor skills.
