Dampak Pembelajaran Jarak Jauh Terhadap Pemahaman Materi Bangun Ruang di SMPN 2 Karangrejo Setelah Pandemi COVID-19

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the difficulties faced by students when understanding and working on descriptive questions on spatial geometry material during distance learning. The type of research used is quantitative research with a phenomenological approach. The research subjects were selected purposively, namely grade VII students who experienced distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data collection methods included questionnaires, tests, interviews, documentation, and field notes. Data analysis was conducted through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results revealed that distance learning has a significant impact on students' ability to understand the concept of building space. Many students have difficulty in visualizing three-dimensional shapes and applying volume and surface area formulas. However, with assistance and the use of interactive learning media, students' understanding can gradually improve. In addition, students who have limited access to technology tend to experience greater obstacles than those who have adequate facilities.
