Teachers' Perceptions of Physics Scientific Argumentation Test Instruments Based on Modern Test Theory Using Question Modeling Through E-Learning Edpuzzle LMS

The study aims to understand teachers' perceptions of scientific argumentation test instruments in physics based on modern test theory using question modelling through Edpuzzle LMS e-learning. It employed a mixed method with a Sequential Explanatory Design. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed descriptively. Initially, it was found that 75% of teachers had not developed assessment instruments capable of optimally training students, resulting in 68% of students struggling to understand physics learning. Additionally, 54% of students reported having identified and solved complex physics problems using scientific argumentation, while 46% had not. Based on survey results, 95% of students and teachers agreed that assessment activities encourage scientific argumentation, indicated by identifying scientific issues and explaining scientific phenomena. Hence, there is a need for a physics scientific argumentation test model based on modern test theory. For future research, it is suggested to explore how integrating this test model in different educational settings impacts students' scientific argumentation skills and understanding of physics concepts.
Implementation of nationalism value in Ubrug based learning

This research aims to describe the instillation of nationalism values in ubrug-based learning. The research approach used is descriptive qualitative research. The research results indicate that the ubrug method or role-playing in instilling nationalism can enhance the students' nationalist attitudes. Students not only portray characters in the story being presented but also can extract the values contained in the performing arts, especially those related to nationalism, which is the goal of the learning process using the ubrug method or role-playing. Furthermore, the use of the Sundanese and Javanese Serang local languages continues to endure with the preservation of local wisdom, including folk theater like ubrug. However, the use of the local language also faces obstacles in the staging of ubrug within the school environment because there are students who are not native to Banten. Hence, they need to learn and adapt to the local language used in the ubrug theater performance.
THE PARAMETRIC AND NONPARAMETRIC ESTIMATOR IN SEMIPARAMETRIC REGRESSION FOR LONGITUDINAL DATA WITH SPLINE APPROACH

Regression analysis aims to determine the relationship between response variables and predictor variables. There are three approaches to estimate regression curves, there are parametric, nonparametric, and semiparametric regression. In this study, the form of spline semiparametric regression curve estimator for longitudinal data assessed. Based on the estimator that be obtained by using Weighted Least Square (WLS) optimization applied to model electricity consumption in Madura by choosing a model for longitudinal data based on linear spline estimator with two knot. The good criterion of the model is using the GCV value, the coefficient of determination and the value of MSE. The best model is a model that has a high coefficient of determination and a small MSE value. This spline model has a determination coefficient value of 99,72911% and MSE 32,50458.

IMPLEMENTATION OF FACE RECOGNITION USING GEOMETRIC FEATURES EXTRACTION

The face is among the biometric objects used to recognize oneâ€™s identity. There are various face recognition system methods that can be applied, one of which is geometric features-based face recognition. Geometric features are unique features extraction of oneâ€™s facial components. These features are obtained by calculating the comparison values of the distance measurement between facial components served as a reference like eyes, nose, and mouth. This research implemented a face recognition system using the geometric features method on a significantly low-spec computer system. This implementation was carried out by building a system, installing it on a computer system, and then testing it using laptops or computer devices and the camera web. The face recognition system would process the facial input images, extract their geometric features, and match the results with the data stored in the database. The research results were a low-spec computer system that could recognize its users by providing real-time feedback in the form of usersâ€™ names with an accuracy of 98%.

Exploratory Research from the Perspective of Integrated Education for the Improvement of Color Education Curriculum: Focusing on the Goals and Teaching Areas of the IBDP Curriculum

Color education in university fails to take into account the importance of colors and their application rate in industries, and is performed under the false perception that it is the tool of design and arts to raise a small number of producers. In fact, colors are a critical medium to make it possible for humans to have a diversity of experience, to build one’s ego, to control one’s emotions and feelings, and to increase individuals’ sensibility, expression, imagination, and creativity. Accordingly, in the digital information era, people have to continue to observe and think of the true meaning and new instruction technique of color education. Therefore, this study tried to look into the progressive education in the education program of International Baccalaureate(IB), which draws a lot of attention as an innovative plan for raising talented people from the perspective of integrated education, and to put the arts education guides of the IB DP education program into the objectives of color education, main syllabus, and evaluation subjects, and to apply actively the principles of constructivism to color education aiming at well-rounded education. More specifically, it explored the essential meaning of colors discussed in related works, and set the goals of a general subject or a main subject for each competency to provide a balanced teaching-learning technique and professional &amp; convergent subject into theory, activity of making, and activity of planning. In other words, its main section-‘knowledge theory’, ‘research essay’, and ‘creativity, activity, and voluntary work’-help to evaluate not only learners’ knowledge but their attitudes and values to accept colors. The arts education in the IB DP education program makes it possible for university students to take on the challenge of deep thinking, and to establish a learner-oriented education environment. Even though some problems of the evaluation program-somewhat abstract evaluation process or difficult tasks-are point out, the IB education program is judged to be a creative approach as an alternative to a university-level color education course to respond to a new turning point of education. In addition, it is expected that the contents proposed in a variety of teaching-learning cases are used as the explanation and guide of more universal and professional color education.
Effect of Performance Using Extended Reality (XR) Elements on Engagement: Focusing on Performance Experience

This study examined the impact of extended reality (XR) performance experiences on audience engagement. The research involved three stages: identifying subject characteristics, XR performance factors, performance experience, and engagement factors through statistical analysis. Reliability and validity analyses were performed to assess measurement items, followed by a structural equation model to analyze the relationships between XR performance, performance experience, and engagement factors. The results showed that attractiveness and interaction positively influenced performance experience for the entire group. In the high-performance experience group, identity, attractiveness, interaction, and engagement had a positive impact. In the low-performance experience group, interaction and engagement positively affected the audience. This highlights the importance of interaction in XR performances, which can enhance audience experience. Establishing a systematic connection between reality factors and performance service quality is crucial for developing non-face-to-face performance services using virtual reality and content technology. Incorporating elements like identity, attractiveness, novelty, and particularly interaction in XR performances can improve the quality of the audience's experience, offering insights for innovation and future developments in the field of extended reality performance and non-face-to-face performance services.

This best practice was aimed to convey the author's experience in applying digital literacy to create a culture of literacy among students in grades 4, 5 and 6 at SD IT Nurul Iman. The strengthening of character education through a culture of digital literacy among students needed to be developed from an early age. The students who dominate elementary school now are Z generation and alpha generation, they are connected to the digital world in their daily lives. This motivated teachers to continue to transform and innovate so that the learning process is in line with the current generation's times. There are 2 instruments used in this best practice, namely observation sheets and questionnaires. There are two observation sheets, including: (1) Observation sheet to obtain data about the teacher's activities and role in implementing "Lidi Nurim" digital literacy, (2) Observation sheet to obtain data on activities carried out by students during the digital literacy process. Meanwhile, the questionnaire instrument used was a Likert scale questionnaire. This type of measurement scale has a gradation from very positive to very negative. The questionnaire would be used before and after the implementation of digital literacy so that the target's attitudes towards literacy and technology were known before and after. The validity of the instrument could be reached by carrying out the validity test. The test used expert judgment techniques, the opinion of experts, namely the school principal. Based on the overall results of observations and data analysis, it could be concluded that after implementing digital literacy "Lidi Nurim", the children have a positive culture of liking literacy. Apart from that, the students would be wiser in using technology, especially using smartphones at home. Another accompanying impact was the increase in the score of Indonesian Language and ICT subjects

Additionally, underperforming employees shall be evaluated in order to identify the causes of their poor performance rather than being condemned. The management of the institution should work to support each department and all personnel levels. Promotions should not be determined on length of service, as is now the case, but rather by degree of skills and job performance. Key words: Training, Training Design, Training Policies, Evaluation of Training and Employee Performance
NEARPOD BIKIN GURU TIDAK REPOT

This writing is formerly in the intention to make the writer easy in her teaching and learning in her class in the early of the existence of Covid – 19, when the students were too lazy to engage with the teaching and learning material. In order to solve this problem, then the teacher tried to find out the best teaching and learning media to make the students happy and enjoyable with the English lesson. Finally, the teacher found Nearpod as the best way to engage the students with the learning and makes them interested in learning English. If formerly the active participation of the students in the teaching and learning is less than 50 %, after using this application, the involvement of the students’ participation increase as well as the result of the average class score. Formerly, the average score is between 78- 85 for grade IX F from the average minimum score 76. Besides that, the average scores of the other classes also increase. The number of students’ passing grade is also increasing from the former time. Before using this application, there are only about 16 -20, however, now it becomes around 29 even 32. The average score of every class is also increasing from 50 – 60, becomes 78 – 85. The weakness of this application is in the internet access. However, to cover this problem, the teacher still can send the asynchronous link to join back in another time.
Conceptualising Duolingo and its Affordances and Constraints as a Learning Tool in ESL Reading Classrooms: A Concept Paper

Duolingo is one of the few technologically advanced tools being explored for its potential to enhance English teaching and learning. Its purpose is considered to be the next frontier, making it a digital platform equipped with learning concepts while playing. It is also accessible not only on the Internet, but also by using Android, iOS, and Windows Phone versions where students can study at their own speed. They may customise their learning style accordingly, which thus will then encourage effective learning with greater results in the teaching and learning of English as a second language. Nevertheless, it is not a simple undertaking. This concept paper investigated the potential and challenges of using a Duolingo app as a tool for teaching English. This paper provides a conceptual framework that can be useful for measuring the current level of reading comprehension mastery among Year Six pupils in Selangor. In addition, it examines students' perceptions of using Duolingo in improving their reading comprehension skills. The proposed research suggests using a mixed-method design which involves a pre- and post-test procedure with a test sheet as the research instrument and questionnaires to collect data. The proposed sampling will consider the sample selected to accurately represent the population and represent all relevant variables to avoid bias. The collected data is then expected to be analysed using inferential statistics. This research is anticipated to act as a catalyst in inspiring ESL teachers about the effectiveness of Duolingo as an additional material in maximising the benefits of language acquisition.
