INNOVATION OF LAB WORK USING QR CODE FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING AT PUO

Abstract

First and foremost, we express gratitude to the Almighty for His abundant grace, enabling us to successfully compile the documents for the Final Year Project. We are appreciative that this proposal could be accomplished within the designated timeframe.

We would like to extend our thanks to Ungku Omar Polytechnic, particularly the Department of Civil Engineering, semester 5 students with the opportunity to apply the knowledge acquired during our time at Ungku Omar Polytechnic (PUO).

Furthermore, we acknowledge and appreciate the support of our project supervisor, Dr. Panbarasi A/P Govindasamy, who offered valuable advice and guidance in generating innovative ideas. Our heartfelt thanks also go to the lecturers of the Civil Engineering Department and those from other departments who have imparted knowledge to us, either directly or indirectly.Kod Respons Pantas (QR) boleh mengembangkan pengalaman pembelajaran dan menyediakan tugasan tulen yang berlaku dalam tetapan dunia sebenar. Dengan kod QR yang dibenamkan dalam persekitaran, pelajar boleh mendapatkan maklumat kontekstual atau mengetahui lokasi. Kod QR juga boleh memperkayakan bahan berasaskan kertas supaya bahan tersebut memberi perkhidmatan kepada pelbagai jenis pelajar. Di samping itu, kod QR membenarkan pelaksanaan sistem berdasarkan paradigma seperti pembelajaran tepat pada masa dan kolaboratif Objektif produk ini adalah untuk memperkenalkan inovasi dalam bidang bantuan pendidikan, memanfaatkan teknologi termaju, terutamanya penggunaan QR. kod. Produk ini berfungsi sebagai alternatif untuk aktiviti pengajaran dan pembelajaran, melengkapkan kaedah tradisional dengan berkesan. Cabaran yang wujud ialah pelajar kontemporari mencari rujukan yang mudah diakses dan mudah, selalunya menggunakan cetakan helaian makmal sebagai bahan penting. Dengan inovasi ini, pelajar boleh menggunakannya dengan lancar, menyumbang kepada penjimatan tenaga dan mengurangkan kos yang berkaitan dengan mencetak helaian makmal. Selain itu, pendekatan inventif ini dapat membantu para pendidik, terutamanya semasa sesi pengajaran. Sebagai pengganti bahan pembelajaran konvensional, inovasi ini membantu para pendidik dalam menjelaskan prosedur eksperimen, penggunaan formula dan kaedah pengiraan. Pembangunan produk inovatif ini menggabungkan teori dan fakta praktikal, selaras dengan konseptualisasinya. Projek ini menggunakan Pakej Statistik untuk Sains Sosial (SPSS) dan Linktree untuk menganalisis data dan menangani cabaran yang dihadapi dalam 1 penggabungan kandungan ke dalam kod QR. Keputusan yang diperolehi daripada purata SPSS menunjukkan projek melebihi 0.001 kerana bukti analisis ini adalah berdasarkan nilai signifikannya bermula dari 0.001 hingga 0.005. Hasil yang telah diperolehi daripada pakar juga memberi lebih sokongan terhadap projek ini yang menggambarkan projek ini mudah digunakan oleh pensyarah dan pelajar. Secara ringkasnya, inovasi kod QR dalam konteks pengajaran dan pembelajaran ini menunjukkan keberkesanan yang ketara, sambil mengiktiraf bidang untuk diperhalusi dan potensi kemajuan dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran Makmal Geoteknik di PUO.

ABSTRACT

Quick Response (QR) codes can expand the learning experience and provide authentic tasks that take place in real-world settings. With the QR code embedded in the environment, students can obtain contextual or location-aware information. QR codes can also enrich paper-based materials so that the material serves different types of learners. In addition, QR codes allow the implementation of systems based on paradigms such as just-in-time and collaborative learning The objective of this product is to introduce innovation in the realm of educational aids, leveraging cutting-edge technology, notably the use of QR codes. This product serves as an alternative for teaching and learning activities, complementing traditional methods effectively. The prevailing challenge is that contemporary students seek easily accessible and straightforward references, often resorting to printing lab sheets as essential materials. With this innovation, students can seamlessly utilize it, contributing to energy conservation and reducing the costs associated with printing lab sheets. Moreover, this inventive approach can aid educators, particularly during teaching sessions. As a substitute for conventional learning materials, this innovation assists educators in elucidating experimental procedures, formula utilization, and calculation methods. The development of this innovative product incorporates practical theories and facts, aligning with its conceptualization. The project uses Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) and Linktree to analyze data and address challenges encountered in 1 the incorporation of content into the QR code. The results obtained from the SPSS average shown that the project was more than 0.001 as the proof of this analysis is based on its significant value starting from 0.001 until 0.005. The result that had been obtained from the experts also give more support towards this project which describe that this project was easy to use for lecturers and students. In summary, the QR code innovation in this teaching and learning context demonstrates notable efficacy, while acknowledging areas for refinement and potential advancement in teaching and learning Geotechnical Laboratory at PUO.
