DEVELOPING GENIAL.LY BASED SELF-ACCESS LANGUAGE LEARNING SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS TO FACILITATE STUDENTS' LEARNING AUTONOMY IN TERTIARY EDUCATION
No full textBuilding learning autonomy is a pivotal aspect in higher education. Students should be able to be more independent, rather than relying heavily on teacher-directed activities within the classroom. It is crucial to provide self-access materials that align with students' learning needs. This current research, therefore, aimed at developing interactive English supplementary materials using Genial.ly for promoting students' autonomous learning. Genial.ly has been proven to be a promising application; however, the use of Genial.ly to develop English for Specific Purposes (ESP) self-access learning materials for EFL Nursing students is still understudied. Following the research and development stages, which included planning, development, and evaluation, the findings showed that the average scores for language and media expert validation were 4.8 and 4.7, respectively. Following this, the researcher conducted the first revision and a small-scale trial, yielding an average score of 4.1. Based on the results, it can be concluded that the learning product meets the standard and is feasible to be implemented as supplementary materials to help both teachers and students within the English teaching and learning process. Further classroom action research (CAR) or experimental design is highly recommended to investigate the effectiveness of the Genial. Ly-based learning product. The implementation of Genial. Ly-based interactive English supplementary materials also required further and larger feedback from the broader user base to inform future product development that meets the students' needs

ENHANCING ETHNOMATHEMATICS KNOWLEDGE MEASUREMENT ACCURACY USING MODERN TEST THEORY IN JAMBI PROVINCE
No full textEthnomathematics is a potential alternative solution in efforts to preserve culture through the process of cultural integration (ethnography) in mathematics learning. Teachers play an important role in the successful implementation of ethnomathematics. Teachers need to have a deep understanding of the conceptual and practical aspects of ethnomathematics. This knowledge must be known from the start, even when they are still at the stage of becoming prospective mathematics teachers. Therefore, it is important to measure prospective teachers' ethnomathematics knowledge accurately to see the picture of prospective teachers' ethnomathematics knowledge. This research aims to increase the accuracy of measuring the ethnomathematics knowledge of prospective mathematics teachers by comparing several models in the Modern Test Theory approach, which include the Rasch Model, 1, 2, and 3 Parameter Logistics. Data collection was carried out using the Jambi culture-based ethnomathematics test for prospective mathematics teachers with respondents as many as 129 prospective mathematics teachers from Jambi Province. The criteria for the level of accuracy of the model are indicated by the Standard Error Measurement (SEM) and Test Information Function produced by each model. Based on the results of this research, it was concluded that using the Rasch Model produces the best level of accuracy. It is hoped that this research can open new avenues in increasing precision in measuring ethnomathematics knowledge for prospective mathematics teachers
ETHNOMATHEMATICAL INSIGHTS FROM THE CULTURAL HERITAGE OF THE GREAT MOSQUE OF MADIUN
