PENGEMBANGAN APLIKASI KOMPUTER UNTUK MEMBANTU GURU DALAM MENILAI PETA KONSEP SISWA PADA BIDANG STUDI BIOLOGI

Abstract

This research aim to developing an computer application which can assist teacher in assesing biological concept map of student easily and quickly and also formulated assessment order by gowin and novak (1984). This  Research method use development and research with sampling purposive technique. Population in this research is all biological teacher of eleven grade in Bandung. Antecedent study is done two Senior High School in Bandung by using  instrument interview. While product test-drive is done by five Senior High School in Bandung by using instrument in the form of observation sheet and enquette. From antecedent study obtained an information that during the time assessment of map conception only pursuant to perception of each teacher. Teacher do not have clear assessment order, as a result assessment of done concept map during the time tend to do not consistence. Result of test-drive limited to some teacher indicate that developed application can assess map conception student easily, quickly and correctness. Application is also greeted either by teacher because giving amenity in assessing biological concept map of student. Thereby teacher earn more focus at exploiting result of assessment as guidance in design activity of next study. This Application development at the same time invite student and teacher to be more close to technology which also become the target of curriculum 2013.
