PENGARUH PEMANFAATAN QR CODE DALAM LEMBAR KERJA SISWA (LKS) TERHADAP MINAT BELAJAR IPAS SISWA KELAS V SDI NIPA-NIPA KOTA MAKASSAR

Abstract

This study aims to find out students' interest in learning Science before and after using QR Codes in the student worksheets (LKS) and to see the effect of using QR Codes in the LKS on the learning interest of fifth-grade students at SDI Nipa-Nipa in Makassar. This research uses a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental research type (Pre-Experimental Design) and a One Group Pretest-Posttest design. The research sample consisted of 30 grade VA students selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through learning interest questionnaires, observations, and documentation, then analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics with the help of SPSS version 27. The results showed that the average learning interest of students before the treatment (pretest) was 69.93 and increased to 86.13 after the treatment (posttest). The hypothesis test using the Paired Samples Test showed a significance value (Sig. 2-tailed) of 0.001 < 0.05, so H₀ was rejected and H₁ accepted. So, we can say that using QR Codes in Student Worksheets (LKS) really helps boost fifth graders' interest in learning science at SDI Nipa-Nipa in Makassar.
