Experimental testing the effect of teaching method with multimedia

Abstract

The technical drawing is a step that is absolutely necessary to be mastered by the architects in presenting their product in the design development phase. The easy readiness and completeness of information in a drawing determine the quality and timeliness of a project. An incomplete engineering drawing is difficult to read by foreman or craftsman. Building Technology’s subject studies the structure and construction of buildings. As a supporting subject, it plays an important role in the creation of design works of the students. Successful mastery of this subject greatly impacts on courage and design exploration of students in Architecture design courses. This study arranged to measure how far the material online can be understood and comparing the teaching’s result between the normal method (conventional method) with the multimedia method. As the object of research are students of Building Technology classes LA44, LB44, and LD44 at Bina Nusantara University Jakarta. The method used in this research is experimental research. Preliminary data collection is obtained from each work of the student’s assignment. Observation, interview, test through quiz done directly in the classroom and carried out during the odd semester run until the end of the lecture.
