IMPLEMENTATION OF OBSIM MODEL FOR IMPROVING LEARNING OBJECTIVE FORMULATING SKILL TO PHYSICS TEACHER CANDIDATE STUDENTS

Abstract

This paper presents the results of research on the implementation Obsim model in enhancing the skill of physics teacher candidate students in formulating learning objectives. The aim of research was to assess the influence of the model in improving high school physics teacher prospective students in formulating learning objectives. The study was conducted on students who took a course in subject of Physics Instructional Planning, Odd Semester academic year 2009/2010. This type of study was an experiment research, by one group pretest post-test design. The techniques used to collect data were observation, tests, and interviews. Data Analytical technique used to determine the increase in the skill of students to formulate learning objectives was wilcoxon-test. Results showed that the model can significant influence to the improvement of students’ skill in formulating learning objectives. The results can be seen that students can skilled determine operational verb, condition, and degree in physics learning objective formulations.
