PROCEDURAL UNDERSTANDING THROUGH A SCREENCAST PROJECT

Abstract

Procedural understanding is very important in statistics courses. This study measured the level of students' procedural understanding of Educational Statistics material through a screencast project with a quantitative descriptive method. The results of the exam analysis showed that cognitive thinking ability C2, which focuses on procedural understanding, received the main attention. The highest percentage of correct answers for C2 questions reached 88.33%, with the most frequently answered questions being about how to conduct a two independent samples t-test analysis. This shows students' good understanding of specific statistical analysis procedures. In conclusion, students' procedural understanding of the Educational Statistics material can be effectively measured through the screencast project. These results indicate that screencast is an effective method to improve procedural understanding in the context of statistics education. The integration of this technology allows students to learn independently, increases their engagement in the learning process, and deepens their understanding of the material taught. These findings are consistent with previous research that shows the great potential of multimedia, including screencasts, in education, especially for complex subjects such as statistics.
