Students’ response to wards proteus as a teaching and learning tool

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has had a positive influence on the use of technology in education, which continues to grow and is in line with the demands of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 era. This also impacts teaching and learning activities changes with the implementation of the Distance Learning (PJJ) or online learning system. This study aimed to determine the student's ability to make parallel series and LCD circuits and student responses to learning parallel series and LCD circuits. Qualitative research uses response questionnaires and data from the learning process. The analysis results showed that assembling in a parallel series circuit was 82.8%, and an LCD circuit was 71.4%. The positive response of students to learning using Proteus is 80%. Electrical circuit simulation activity using Proteus is a short activity complementary to the practicum with the hope of developing basic skills in using software, increasing knowledge of electrical circuit topology. The introduction of simulation is also expected to contribute to the constructive learning of electric circuit theory. © 2023 Author(s).
