STUDENT RESPONSE IN USING SMARTPHONE-ASSISTED AUGMENTED REALITY VIDEO IN LEARNING

Abstract

Smartphone-assisted video augmented reality was developed to facilitate students who want to study anywhere, and anytime. This media can be used for distance higher education students. The material studied includes the presentation of information about the work procedures of a concept being practiced. This study aims to get student responses about the use of augmented reality videos in chemistry learning. The activity was preceded by developing a video program and being validated by a media expert, followed by making markers and developing applications. The results of the development were tried on 8 male students and 31 female students, as well as 4 teachers. The data was obtained based on the instrument in the form of a questionnaire containing questions related to the use of augmented reality videos that have been developed. Data were analyzed by descriptive qualitative. The results obtained showed that the questions given were responded well and very well by the students. Student responses stated that Augmented Reality (AR) video shows were able to 1) introduce students to the basic material of chemical experiments (100%), 2) build an understanding of teaching materials (92.3%), 3) provide an initial understanding before working in the laboratory (95.9%) %), 4) introduce the object of the experiment to be carried out (100%), 5) represent the form of the components of the tool and chemicals as they are, 6) explain the procedure for using the tool easily (100%), 7), analyze in-depth thoughts, and theory about the chemical experiment to be carried out (94.6%), 8) obtaining new interpretations and ideas (97.4%), 9), after following the AR broadcast given, looking forward to the next practical topic experiment (100%). Meanwhile, the response given by the teacher included that although this media can be used, there are still some parts that need to be revised because the image disappears when the camera is moved, and the image starts again from the beginning when rescanning, so the application needs to be modified.
