Improvement of Teacher’s Ability to Make IT-Based Teaching and Evaluation Materials Using Scribe, Camtasia and Quiz Creator (Case Study in SMK Negeri 1 Tembarak, Temanggung, Central Java, Indonesia)

Abstract

Teachers are an important element in the formal education system, both in primary, secondary, and high education. The ability of teachers to prepare teaching materials is very influential on student learning outcomes. Learning materials that are easy to understand and look interesting will be preferred and easily understood by students. Evaluation is one of the benchmarks for knowing the results achieved by students. Success in delivering subject matter certainly influences the results achieved in student evaluation. This study aims to measure the extent to which training in making teaching materials and exam questions based on information and communication technology (ICT) affects improving the ability of teachers in the learning process and evaluation of students. The method used in this study is a method of collecting data with experimental methods for teachers before and after training. The software used in this training was Scribe 1.0.4 and Camtasia 8.0 video for making IT-based learning material and Quiz Creator 4.5.1 used for making student evaluation materials. Survey data collection was conducted on forty teachers who attended training and sixty students at SMK N 1 Tembarak Temanggung. Wilcoxon Test is used to analyse survey data. The results of this study are that there is a significant correlation with the ability of teachers to develop teaching materials before and after training. The results of a survey of students found that 80% of students preferred teachers to use ICT-based teaching materials and 75% of students preferred to work on ICT-based questions rather than conventional exam questions, 87% teachers found to benefit from the training. The Wilcoxon test proves that the teacher’s ability to make teaching materials and exam materials increases after training.
