MICRO-LEARNING VIDEO BASED ON SIGNALING IN COMPUTER GRAPHICS COURSES

Abstract

The use of video media has now spread to various levels of education. Video is an effective means of conveying information in the digital era. One of the less good video message designs is the dense content of the material, which can burden the cognitive burden of students. Students find it difficult to process information and find the core of a material, so it is difficult to understand its contents. For this reason, video design needs to pay attention to the right message presentation strategy with the principle of micro-learning so that the presentation of the material is more to the point and concise. In addition, applying the signaling principle will tell students important words in the visual display. The objectives of this study are to describe the validity and attractiveness of signaling-based micro-learning videos. This study is a development study that aims to produce videos by prioritizing innovation in the form of applying the principle of signaling-based micro-learning. Micro-learning provides a reference so that videos are presented in small and short units. Then, important words in the content are marked with color or animated. The video was developed using a 4D model consisting of defining, designing, developing, and disseminating. The validity test involved two experts: media and learning design experts. The attractiveness test involved 12 students. The validity test results showed that micro-learning videos have very good design and media validity. Likewise, the attractiveness of the media, according to students, is very good.
