Penerapan Self-Directed Learning (SDL) dalam Pembelajaran Fisika SMA Berbasis Daring Pada Pokok Bhasan Hukum Newton

Abstract

Currently, all Indonesian regions are experiencing a severe pandemic condition that affected all fields, including the education sector. The education system that is usually face-to-face has to turn online, which forces students with teaching staff to carry out the learning process from home. With online-based learning, teachers and students can take advantage of online learning-based platforms, like Google Classroom, to implement Self-Directed Learning (SDL), where there are adjustments to learning device and material to be taught online and achieve the competencies to be trained. By using the pre- experimental design method, the type of research used was one group pretest-posttest design. This article aims to apply Self-Directed Learning (SDL) in online-based high school physics learning on the subject of Newton's Law. The data analysis technique used is implementation of the learning process, normality test, paired t-test, and n-gain analysis. The application of Self-Directed Learning (SDL) is declared effective if the value on the final test (posttest) has a high value compared to the value of the initial test (pretest), as well as an increase in the results of the application of Self-Directed Learning (SDL) which is shown from the n-test. gain in the high category. In conclusion, the results of the application of Self- Directed Learning (SDL) can be done practically and are categorized as very good. The application of SDL is able to improve students' cognitive abilities in online-based physics learning for Newton's Law material.
