The Effect of Google Classroom as A Tool in Chemistry Learning

摘要

The development of information and communication technology in the 21st century has had an impact in the field of education. One of them is the development in the learning model that uses a lot of information and communication technology-based media. One of the technologies in learning that is currently widely used is Google Classroom. Google classroom is an open-source application from Google that can be used for learning and can be referred to as e-learning. This study was aimed to understand the effect of using Google Classroom in chemistry learning on student learning outcomes. Google Classroom in this study was used as a medium that contains learning videos and LKPD that could be accessed by students. This research was conducted in one of the State High Schools in Jakarta with a sample of 72 students in class X. The research method used was quasi experiment with posttest only control group design. The sampling technique in this study was purposive random sampling. The instrument in this study was in the form of a test of learning outcomes in the form of descriptions and questionnaires for students' online learning readiness. The results showed that the average student learning outcomes of the experimental class were 83.972, while the control class was 78.528. These results differed significantly at α= 0.05. So it could be concluded that Chemistry Learning with the help of Google Classroom media had a positive influence on student learning outcomes.
