Physics teachers' beliefs on ICT integration at secondary school in Indonesia and Philippines

Abstract

Abstract-The popularity of physics, as well as the interest in the field, seems to be declining in the school worldwide from year to year. Teachers are likely to hold beliefs about teaching and learning and use of ICT tools which are additional instruments considered in the teaching and learning practice. The increase in ICT development gives wide opportunities in its use to improve the learning performance. The study aims to find out a realistic picture of the teaching-learning constraints of teachers in the use of ICT especially those with certain beliefs in its use. It is the qualitative research using triangulation method. This study involved physics teachers, principals, and physics students from Indonesia and Philippines. The result showed that almost all physics teachers in Indonesia and Philippines belief that ICT has many benefits to enhance learning. The supporting regulation from school management is needed to encourage the teacher to use ICT in their learning activities.

The Analysis of the Critical Thinking Skills between Blended Learning Implementation: Google Classroom and Schoology

“…One of them in the advancement of science and technology, especially Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has much positive influence on the advancement of education. The advantage offered not only lies in the speed factor and the ease of getting information or material resources, but some multimedia facilities can make the learning process more exciting and interactive [1,2].…”

“…Teacher belief on using some technologies will affect their teaching and learning practice (Cheung and Vogel, 2013;Sulisworo et al, 2017b). Taking into account the background, the purpose of this study is to explain how prospective teachers' views relate to their experience of online learning or e-learning and their designing of elearning.…”

Modeling climate phenomenon with software grids analysis and display system in the development of the global warming module

“…This finding is in line with theories that say critical is a persistent effort to test something that is believed to be true or knowledge with supporting evidence so that further conclusions can be drawn right. Critical thinkers can produce important questions and problems, formulate clearly, gather and assess relevant information, use ideas that are abstract, think with a broad view and communicate effectively [24], [25]. Thus, it can be stated that the students 'post-test scores using the global warming module show that students' critical thinking skills are very good, can be applied to the learning of global warming material.…”
