Penggunaan Framing pada Praktikum Klasifikasi Tumbuhan untuk Menurunkan Beban Kognitif Siswa SMA
Abstract: This
study was conducted
to reduce the
cognitive load of
high school students
in a classification plant laboratory. The
subjects were students
of class X
IPA one of
private high school
Favorite in Bandung, divided into experimental class (36
students) and control class (36 students). The
experimental class used Framing
for practical activities providing dikotomous key scheme, while the control
class practical activities carried
out in accordance
used worksheet conventionally .
Cognitive load was
measured by looking
at differences in the students' ability to receive and process
information (information processing), mental effort and learning outcomes in
the form of reasoning ability of students in the classification of plants. Data
ability to receive and
process information captured
by task complexity
combined worksheet on
the worksheet students. Data
captured by the mental effort of subjective rating scale questionnaire Likert
scale-based, while the data captured using the reasoning ability of students to
write test questions based on indicators describing complex thinking. Data were
analyzed by using a different test and the average correlation between the
three components of cognitive
load. The analysis
showed both the
experimental class and
the control class relationship between
the ability to
accept the reasoning
ability showed a
positive correlation, while
the relationship between mental
effort with reasoning
abilities showed a
negative correlation. These
results illustrate the cognitive
load balancing character
students in practical
activities in both
classes of plant classification research.
However, students in
the experimental class
has the ability
to receive and
process information that is
higher and significantly
different than the
control class. Instead
the experimental class mental effort value lower than the
control class, showed that the cognitive load of students in the experimental class
lower than the cognitive load control class. In other words, the use of framing
the practical activities of classification of plants in the experimental class
has been able to decrease the cognitive load of students.
