Effectiveness of gamification-based interactive multimedia in enhancing students’ conceptual understanding and learning retention in animation techniques

Nofri HendriSeptriyan Anugrah

Animation Techniques courses require mastery of complex spatial concepts, motion mathematics, and physics dynamics. However, conventional learning that relies on lectures and passive presentation slides often induces excessive cognitive load and fails to facilitate students’ intuitive understanding. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of integrating gamification-based interactive multimedia in enhancing students’ conceptual understanding and learning retention in an Animation Techniques course. Using a quantitative quasi-experimental approach with a Non-equivalent Control Group Design, this study involved 80 students who were proportionally assigned to an Experimental Group (n = 40) and a Control Group (n = 40). Data collection instruments included conceptual understanding tests (pretest, posttest, and delayed posttest after 4 weeks), engagement observation sheets, and the Instructional Materials Motivation Survey (IMMS). Inferential analysis revealed a significantly higher N-gain score for conceptual understanding in the experimental group, at 0.76 (high category), compared with 0.43 (medium category) in the control group (p < .001). Furthermore, the delayed posttest demonstrated a memory retention rate of 88.4% in the experimental group, compared with 62.1% in the control group. Gamification features, such as interactive timing-curve simulations, immediate feedback, and micro-learning challenges, were empirically shown to optimize dual-coding cognitive channels and strengthen students’ long-term memory retention.

Development and quasi-experimental evaluation of a self-directed case-based digital learning model for emergency nursing competence

Sunarto SunartoAddi Mardi HarnantoSudiro Sudiro

This study developed and evaluated a self-directed, case-based digital learning model for emergency nursing education. A sequential research-and-development approach was used. Phase 1 comprised needs assessment and model development using questionnaires, interviews, and input from clinical educators and students. Phase 2 used a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control-group evaluation. Total sampling included all 90 students in the Professional Nursing Program. Two existing classes were allocated at class level by random selection, with class A assigned to the intervention group (n = 43) and class B to the control group (n = 47). The intervention was delivered through Google Sites three times per week for four weeks. Each session included 10-15 minutes of reading, 5-10 minutes of instructional video, and 5-10 minutes of an interactive quiz. A 12-item competency instrument covering Emergency Nursing competencies was reviewed by two experts; content validity was strong (S-CVI/Ave = 1.00; mean Aiken's V = 0.92, range 0.83-1.00), with 100% expert agreement, although Cohen's kappa was not estimable because of zero variance. The intervention group increased from 49.19 ± 26.00 at pretest to 77.09 ± 21.66 at posttest, while the control group increased from 39.79 ± 11.93 to 58.83 ± 14.19. Paired improvements were significant in both groups (27.91 points, 95% CI 20.51-35.30, t(42) = 7.61, p < .001; and 19.04 points, 95% CI 14.10-23.98, t(46) = 7.76, p < .001, respectively). A supplementary gain-score comparison calculated from the supplied summary statistics showed an 8.86-point greater improvement in the intervention group, Welch's t(74.46) = 2.01, p = .048, Cohen's d = 0.43 (95% CI 0.01-0.85). Baseline scores were not equivalent between groups, which limits causal interpretation. The findings support the model as a feasible supplementary approach for emergency-nursing learning, while larger multi-site studies with stronger allocation procedures and objective clinical-performance measures are still needed.

Applied behavior analysis and discrete trial training for functional verbal communication in children with autism in an islamic inclusive school

Diana Zumrotus Sa'adahZubaedi ZubaediTimi KrismoniaMuhammad Nabahan Azizy

Functional verbal communication is a central target of intervention for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), yet response to structured behavioral teaching varies across learners and settings. This study examined changes in functional verbal communication following an Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) intervention using Discrete Trial Training (DTT) in an Islamic inclusive school. The study involved six children with ASD and used an A-B-A single-case experimental structure consisting of four baseline sessions (A1), ten intervention sessions (B), and four post-intervention baseline sessions (A2). The primary outcome was the observed level of functional communication during teaching opportunities; interviews and documentation were used as contextual sources. Data were examined through phase-based visual analysis of level, trend, variability, immediacy, and overlap. All six participants showed stable, low A1 scores, followed by a marked increase during B. The plotted scores increased from an A1 range of 1.0–2.0 to 7.5–8.7 at the end of the intervention phase. During A2, scores remained above the initial baseline for all participants, ranging from 5.5–8.0, with small within-phase fluctuations. The pattern is consistent with improvement and maintenance of functional communication, although the A-B-A design, small sample, single-school setting, and absence of reported inter-observer agreement limit causal inference and generalizability. The study therefore supports the value of structured DTT in this context while indicating the need for replication with stronger controls, independent observers, and longer follow-up.

Klasterisasi spatio-temporal komparatif untuk deteksi gempa bumi bermagnitudo tinggi: analisis k-means dan DBSCAN terhadap seismisitas zona subduksi

Andri DermawanDimas Dwi Randa

Sumatera merupakan salah satu wilayah dengan aktivitas seismik tertinggi di dunia akibat interaksi konvergen Lempeng Indo-Australia dan Lempeng Eurasia serta keberadaan Sesar Besar Sumatera. Pemahaman terhadap pola kegempaan yang bersifat spatio-temporal menjadi penting sebagai dasar mitigasi bencana. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi pola pengelompokan gempa bumi di Sumatera menggunakan dua algoritma eksplorasi data yang berbeda paradigma, yaitu K-Means (berbasis partisi) dan DBSCAN (berbasis kepadatan). Data yang digunakan adalah katalog gempa United States Geological Survey (USGS) periode Januari 2015 hingga Desember 2025 pada rentang 6,5°LU–6,5°LS dan 94°–107°BT. Setelah praproses dan penerapan ambang kelengkapan magnitudo Mc = 4,0, diperoleh 2.834 kejadian. Lima fitur digunakan sebagai masukan clustering, yaitu lintang, bujur, waktu kejadian, kedalaman, dan magnitudo, yang seluruhnya distandardisasi menggunakan z-score. Jumlah klaster optimal K-Means ditentukan melalui Elbow Method dan Davies–Bouldin Index yang keduanya konvergen pada k = 6, sedangkan parameter DBSCAN ditetapkan melalui grafik k-distance dan penelusuran grid dua dimensi sehingga diperoleh ε = 0,7 dan minPts = 20. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa K-Means membagi kegempaan Sumatera menjadi enam klaster yang secara konsisten memisahkan segmen utara (Aceh–Simeulue) dan segmen selatan (Bengkulu–Lampung), masing-masing terpecah lagi menjadi dua periode waktu (2015–2020 dan 2020–2025), ditambah satu klaster zona Benioff berkedalaman menengah (rerata 173,7 km) dan satu klaster bermagnitudo tinggi (rerata 5,40). DBSCAN menghasilkan tiga klaster dengan 633 titik (22,3%) diklasifikasikan sebagai noise. Temuan paling menonjol adalah bahwa seluruh 27 gempa bermagnitudo M ≥ 6,0 diklasifikasikan sebagai noise oleh DBSCAN, dan magnitudo titik noise secara signifikan lebih besar dibandingkan titik terklaster (uji Mann–Whitney U, p &lt; 0,001). Nilai Silhouette K-Means (0,260) lebih tinggi dibandingkan DBSCAN (0,214), namun DBSCAN unggul pada Davies–Bouldin Index (0,890 berbanding 1,207). Disimpulkan bahwa kedua metode bersifat komplementer: K-Means efektif untuk segmentasi zona seismik, sedangkan DBSCAN efektif sebagai detektor kejadian anomali yang berpotensi merusak.

Documentary evaluation of formal obe alignment and operational traceability in english teacher education

Sri Agriyanti MestariKarmila MachmudSayama MalabarLukman A. R. LaliyoMohamad Zubaidi

Outcome-Based Education (OBE) requires coherent links between intended outcomes, learning activities, assessment, and evidence. This evaluative document analysis examined formal alignment and operational traceability in an Indonesian English teacher education curriculum and five purposively selected course plans. Five experts rated 33 indicators across 11 dimensions; a supplementary nine-feature audit assessed documentary links across courses. The Constructive Alignment Index was 79.9% (659/825), with Kendall's W = .662 indicating rater concordance. Outcome specificity (93.3%) and graduate-profile traceability (90.7%) were relatively strong, whereas formative feedback (64.0%) and differentiated learning opportunities (48.0%) were weaker. All five plans contained rubrics, but explicit outcome-specific assessment criteria links appeared in only one; four were partially documented. Feedback-to-revision procedures were partial in all five. The findings distinguish the presence of OBE components from their auditable documentary continuity. They support improved outcome coding, assessment mapping, and feedback design but do not establish classroom implementation or student attainment.

Developing a cognitive-based module for problem-focused coping skills: a research and development feasibility study among university students

Julia Eva PutriRismar Julia UtamiEdisa Oktonika

University students encounter various academic and non-academic stressors that require effective coping strategies. This study aimed to develop and examine the feasibility of a cognitive approach-based problem-focused coping skill module grounded in Lazarus and Folkman’s transactional model and Beck’s cognitive model. A Research and Development design using the ADDIE model was employed. The module was evaluated through content-expert validation, design-expert validation, and field practicality testing, followed by a single-group pretest–posttest involving 60 university students. Content-expert validation yielded 96.7% (Aiken’s V = 0.94–0.98), design-expert validation 89.3% (Aiken’s V = 0.71–0.98), and field practicality 95.7%, all categorized as highly feasible. Descriptively, the proportion of students with high problem-focused coping increased from 35% to 80%, while high emotion-focused coping increased from 25% to 67%. No inferential statistical analysis was conducted, and the absence of a control group limits causal interpretation. The findings indicate that the module is feasible and practical and is associated with an increase in problem-focused coping. Its effectiveness in reducing academic stress should be examined in future controlled studies using validated stress measures.
