ABSTRACT

The covid-19 pandemic has weakened various aspects of human life, including the field of education. One of the negative impacts of the pandemic can be seen in practical learning. Students should be skilled for practice but currently have to endure with online learning. The difficulty of delivering practical learning in online learning methods is a challenge for lecturers. The lecturer took the initiative to provide material for right-aligned lathe chisel geometry through the application of plasticine wax media. This research aims to determine the increase in students’ understanding of the material of lathe chisel geometry in the group using plasticine wax media and the group using work drawing media. The method used in this research was a quasi-experiment method with a nonequivalent control group design as the research design. The population of this research was all automotive engineering students of class of 2020 at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Semarang State University. The data analysis technique used was pre-test and post-test to determine the increase in students’ understanding. The increase in students’ understanding is expressed in the N-Gain score. Furthermore, the independent sample t-test was used to determine the difference in learning outcomes of the two groups. The results showed that the use of plasticine wax media was able to increase students’ understanding of the right-aligned lathe chisel geometry material for automotive engineering students during the covid-19 pandemic in a fairly effective interpretation with a percentage of 57.34%. Meanwhile, the results of the research in the control class, namely the class that used work drawing media, showed a value in the less effective interpretation with a percentage of 42.22%. The conclusion of this research is that there is a significant difference between the application of plasticine wax media and work drawing media on the right-aligned lathe chisel geometry material. Plasticine wax media can be used as a solution to help improve students’ understanding because this media is able to provide a real visual picture to automotive engineering students in right-aligned lathe chisel material.
