Effects of the Google meet assisted method of learning on building student knowledge and learning outcomes

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the Google Meet media-assisted lecture method on building student knowledge and learning outcomes while learning from home (SFH). A quasi-experimental in the form of pretest-posttest control group design was used in this study. The sample was 96 first-year students (70 girls and 26 men; aged between 18-20) in the elementary school teacher education study program at the University of Trunojoyo Madura in the academic year 2019/2020. Researchers involved three intact classes; 1 class randomly selected as an experimental group and 2 classes as a control group. Knowledge Building Test (TMP) and Cognitive Learning Outcomes Test (THB) are administered as a pretest and posttest. The results of the two-way MANOVA revealed that students taught using the Google Meet media-assisted lecture method have posttest scores building knowledge and learning outcomes higher than comparison groups. Therefore, it can be concluded that the method of lectures assisted by Google Meet media has a significant influence on building knowledge and student learning outcomes in lecturing learning strategies in elementary schools.
