Abstract:

Environmental problems still require a lot of solutions that need to involve various groups including universities. Through effective environmental education learning, it can have an impact on awareness and achievement of student competencies in Environmental Science courses. The application of learning media by utilizing digital technology is expected to be effective in explaining material on global environmental issues related to human relations with the environment, environmental principles, pollution, utilization of natural resources. The objectives of this study were to: 1) obtain the level of student competence through video-based learning media in the Environmental Science course; 2) obtain the level of student competence with power point learning media; 3) obtain the effectiveness of student competency achievement between learning with video-based media and powerpoint media. This research is a descriptive quantitative study to determine the effectiveness of student competency achievement between video-based media learning and power point media learning. The object of research is video-based learning media and power point learning media in Environmental Science courses. The subjects of this study were a group of students with video-based media learning as many as 30 people and a group of students with power point media learning as many as 32 people. The research instrument is a student competency test (pret-test and post-test) to measure the effectiveness of video-based media compared to power point media after learning Environmental Science material. The test contains 25 multiple-choice questions with a per-item score of 0 or 1 and a score range of 0-100. The results showed: first, the final competence of all students after learning using video-based media was at a high level with an average score of 78.80 75. Second, the final competence of all students after learning using power point media was still at a moderate level, namely with an average score of 72.13 75. Third, the competence of students with learning using video-based media obtained an average score of 78.80 75. The average score of student competence with learning power point media is 72.13 75. That is, the effectiveness of learning using video-based media is higher than using power point media in Environmental Science courses.
