The Use of Microgenetic Method to Measures the Cognitive Change by Introducing New Education Tool
Abstract
This paper presents a student cognitive change measurement study by introducing new education tool. Plus students also participated in two ways of thought reflection i.e. submitting their response in mini report and verbal question-answer session with lecturer. By Microgenetic Method the student performance is measured repetitively and all of these are recorded. The result of p = 0.99 (99%) for the student getting above passing marks stimulated by education tool and question-answer session. And based on the total of 30 marks, on average student that exposed to the three matters gained about 29 marks and those who are not expose to the three matter gained about 13 marks.
