Exploring respiratory system to improve biological learning motivation: resysmart media application

Abstract

Resysmart is an interactive media on the Respiratory system material, which stands for Smart Respiratory System. This media uses the Adobe Flash CC application. This study aims to measure the effectiveness of Resysmart interactive media in increasing learning motivation. This study used a quasi-experimental method with a non-equivalent control group design. The learning model used was Problem Based Learning. Samples in this study were students of the eleventh grade of social class at SMAN 3 Cibinong, Indonesia, as many as 60 people. The results showed that there was an increase in learning motivation in the experimental class with a pre-test value of 69.20 and a post-test value of 82.00, with a Gain Score of 12.80. N-Gain Score in the experimental class was 0.42, which was classified as moderate, while the control class is 0.08, which was classified as low. After an independent t-test, a significance value of 0.00 <0.05 was obtained, which means there was a significant difference in learning motivation between Resysmart interactive media classes with classes that didn't use Resysmart interactive media. This study concluded that Resysmart interactive learning media effectively increases students' learning motivation. Based on these results, it was expected that this interactive media could be developed in other materials so that students' learning motivation can be maintained and improved.

Excretory system learning: What is the relationship between critical thinking skills and biology learning motivation?

“…Each student has different intrinsic motivation level. It is in this aspect that the teacher provides extrinsic motivation to improve the students' intrinsic motivation (Ningsih et al, 2019).…”

“…Motivation is a mechanism that ultimately influences a person to act in the desired way (Hadjichambis et al, 2016;Muhammad, 2014;Colquitt, 2011). Students who have intrinsic motivation possess superiority since they have self-confidence (Ningsih et al, 2019;Solmaz, 2016). Similarly, motivation is crucial to succeed in educational matters and, success in the learning process will not be achieved without spirit since it is a long-life process.…”

“…Comprehension should be supported by higher learning motivation by students (Ristanto, 2011). Learning motivation must be improved and supported by biology learning process (Darmawan, Wahono, et al, 2019;Ningsih, Rusdi, & Miarsyah, 2019). It requires a scientific identification to identify factors influencing excretory system learning motivation.…”

Implementation Supplementary Book of Green Consumerism: Improving Students HOTS in Environmental Learning

“…Learning in control classes was not active, because it used conventional media that was traditional. So that students are not too interested (Buber & Coban, 2017;Lemus et al, 2014;Ningsih, Rusdi, & Miarsyah, 2019;Nugraini, Choo, Hin, & Hoon, 2013;Yousefi, 2014). Based on media appearance, conventional media also does not have a display that can be easily understood by students.…”

Guided discovery-blended learning (GDBL) for critical thinking skill empowerment: A learning strategy in human excretory system

“…Learning could take place periodically outside the face to face meeting hour (Diep et al, 2017). The abstract biology learning process could be actualized using e-learning media via video, flash video, and questions for discussion materials (Tudor, 2013;Ningsih et al, 2019). This research aims to combine blended learning technology and learning model of guided discovery learning with expectation of improving senior high school students' critical thinking skills.…”
