Web Enhanced Course, Solusi Bagi Peserta Didik dalam Pemahaman Materi Perkuliahan

Abstract

Cognitive abilities in students have an important role for children's success in learning because most of the activities in learning are always associated with problems of remembering and thinking. Cognitive abilities are intended so that children are able to explore the world around them through their five senses, which are collaborated with accurate analysis so that with the understanding of the knowledge they get, children can carry on their lives. In supporting the implementation of learning activities with cognitive abilities so as to produce a maximum level of understanding of lecture material, it is necessary to have an appropriate digital-based learning media so that it can collaborate between technology and cognitive abilities. One of the digital-based learning media that can be applied in supporting students' cognitive abilities is to use Web Enhanced Course (WEC). The method used in this study uses descriptive methods and linear regression. Data obtained from the results of questionnaires that have been filled out by students using simple linear regression analysis techniques. The population used in this study were students of the Faculty of Economics, Universitas Negeri Malang. The population used to measure the level of student understanding of lecture material using the Web Enhanced Course amounted to 284 students, while the sampling technique used was proportional random sampling to obtain a sample of 74 students. While the results of this study can be concluded that the use of digital learning media Web Enhanced Course has an influence on improving understanding of lecture material by students as measured using cognitive abilities.

Integration of Web Media and Pedagogical Content Knowledge in Learning During the Pandemic

“…The accuracy of the selection of technology-based media that will be used is indispensable for teachers in teaching and learning activities, either face-to-face learning activities or learning activities in the classroom with distance learning methods. This is because The use of learning media in the teaching process can arouse new desires and interests, motivations, and stimuli in conducting learning activities in learners resulting in improved understanding and learning outcomes for learners (Wati & Handayani, 2020), in addition, learning media can be used in supporting the effectiveness of the learning process and the accuracy of teachers in transferring knowledge to students, the measure is by the student's understanding of the material delivered. Therefore, learning media there is never to be separated from the process of teaching and learning activities, so teachers should be able to utilize various forms of learning media and collaborate with existing methods and media to improve the quality and achievement of learning objectives (Tafonao, 2018).…”

“…For students' ability to remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate and create solutions during learning with distance learning methods in pandemics to be maximized, teachers need to use interactive media in learning. In addition to the methods used, the accuracy of the selection of learning media is another determining variable that teachers can use in the success of transferring science to students during teaching and learning activities (Wati & Handayani, 2020). The purpose of writing this article is to describe how effective distance learning and pedagogical content knowledge of the cognitive of Vocational High School students when viewed from the perception of teachers.…”

Optimizing the Cognitive Abilities of Students Through Learning Methods and Web-Enhanced Course Media

“…With their cognitive abilities, students have a very wide opportunity to develop all their potential and can be used to develop effective and psychomotor abilities both at school and outside of school (Mitasari, 2018). The purpose of the emphasis on mastery of this ability in learning is actually to encourage students' maturity in exploration and combine it with accurate analysis of the environment, so that with accurate animate ability, hopefully, they can live decently when they graduate from school (Wati & Handayani, 2020).…”

Distance Learning Methods in Learning in Vocational High Schools

“…Given by the teacher regardless of the quality of the work results of the final goal of the learning material, so that it will affect students learning interests and cognitive abilities that have an impact on learning outcomes (Rozikin et al, 2021) (Aji, 2020) (Yunitasari & Hanifah, 2020) The use of distance learning methods in improving students' understanding of the material has long been discussed by several researchers (Cucus & Aprilinda, 2016) (Thaib et al, 2016); (García-Floriano et al, 2017); (Borisova et al, 2006); (A. Wati & Handayani, 2020); (Mulyanti et al, 2020); (Sofian Hadi et al, 2021) the result is that the use of this method needs to be balanced with the optimal ability of teachers in delivering materials in a more interesting, interactive and innovative manner. Distance learning itself is learning that allows teachers and students to still be able to interact intensely even if they are not in one place and at the same time, this is due to the existence of supporting media in the form of technology in learning that allows being able to communicate optimally to do teaching and learning activities (Keegan 1996), in addition, with the existence of interactive technology-based learning media allows students to be able to always access subject matter and supporting materials that teachers have uploaded without the time and place restrictions so that students can learn with unlimited.…”
