THE EFFECT OF TRAINING USAGE OF ELECTRIC MEASURING INSTRUMENTS TO STUDENT PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT IN THE BASIC PHYSICS EXPERIMENT 2 COURSE

Experimental activities are closely related to measurement activities that require measuring instruments. Skills using measuring instruments affect learning outcomes of the experimental activities carried out. The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of the implementation of the training on the use of electrical measuring instruments on the performance evaluation of physics education students in the basic physics experiments 2 course. This type of research is survey research. The research population was all students of the Physics Education Study Program Universiti of Riau semester 2, who took the Basic Physics Experiment 2 course in 2017, 2018 and 2019. The number of classes was 6 classes and each year a random sample class was taken, so the research sample amounted 3 classes. For 2017 students taking part in the Basic Physics Experiment 2 course, were only given instructions on the use of measuring instruments when conducting experiments, where as in 2018 and 2019, students taking basic physics experiments 2 were provided with special training before conducting experiments. The data collection instrument used was from the results of a three-year student performance assessment sheet on the topic of multiloop and alternating current experiments. The data analysis technique used is descriptive analysis. The results showed that students who were equipped with training in the use of electric measuring instrument before the lecture begins of Basic Physics Experiment 2, gave better performance assessment results compared to students who were not equipped with training in using electric measuring instrument. Therefore, training in the use of measuring instruments before conducting an experiment is very important given the basic physics experiment 2 on the topic of multiloops and alternating current.

Geolectrical Equipment Research Activity in Laboratory of Exploration and Geothermal, at Geology Department ITB

This article is presented in the 5th ICONTES Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Author: Prihadi Sumintadireja. The Exploration Geology and Geothermal Laboratory (LEGG) was established in June 2017 as a research institution under the Faculty of Earth Science and Technology (FITB), Institut Teknologi of Bandung (ITB). As indicted by the three principle of higher education (Education, Research, and Community Services), the research lab has a goal to conduct researches on applied geosciences and modeling surface and subsurface geosciences data for exploration, geological hazard mitigation, and environmental geosciences and to publish the results both in national as well as international level. The lab specializes in creating a geological model from surface and subsurface data in order to solve real world problem.LEGG’s research activities that was done in between 2005 – 2017 are funded by ITB’s Research and Community Services Institute in addition to funding from petroleum and geothermal industry. The researches done in several stages that is listed below: 1.) Lab scale geo-electric measuring device prototype development, 2.) Field scale geo-electric measuring device development, 3.) Field scale measurement simulation, 4.) Environmental geoscience implementation and 5.) Petroleum industry implementation.This paper is meant to highlight the LEGG’s success story of more than 10 years of researching geoelectric acquisition and its implementaiton in the industry. The fruit of the research is LVG GLS, newly developed geoelectric acquisition instrument, that could record vast amount of higher quality data in shorter amount of time. Latest version of the device has 120 channels which means it has almost twice wider coverage and could be used to map three dimensional subsurface configuration quicker compared to any previous version.Keywords: Current and potential electrode, mise-a-la-masse, R&D, LEGG

ВИКОРИСТАННЯ ПРОГРАМ-ЕМУЛЯТОРІВ У НАВЧАННІ ФІЗИКИ МАЙБУТНІХ ТЕХНІКІВ ПРОГРАМІСТІВ

A modern gauge has been fused with digital and processor means of managing and processing information. Digital-to-analog (DACs) and analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are widely used in various fields of modern science and technology. It is proposed to use the computer on the physics lessons and related subjects as the universal electric measuring device, which is based on using ADC and DAC audio adapter with an emphasis on the use of elements, means and principles of programming in its software. The study considers two aspects: methodology of teaching physics, gaining the professional competencies by engineer-programmers.

Study on an Intelligent Teaching Dynamic Balance Technology

Abstract:.:Intelligent teaching Dynamic balancing is a new kind of dynamic balancing test system with various functions of teaching need. It integrates the hard bearing method using A, B, C size solution with soft bearing method using the influence coefficient method solution. The system is mainly composed of machine frame, intelligent electric measuring box, high sensitive sensor and far infrared phase sensor. It has the advantages of small volume, simple operation, security with low speed，reliable and convenient operation for students. It can deepen students' understanding of balancing knowledge, which has won the national utility model patent.
