Introduction
Based on the result of PISA ( 2009), Indonesia is on the second lowest rank from the 65 countries.There are three aspects that were researched by PISA, they are: the ability of reading, mathematics, and science.The result showed that science is on the lowest rank.This is apprehensive that aspect which is measured by PISA is including the special skill in science field that is very needed in facing the global era challenge.In this case, science learning should be revised to be better.From those reasons, it becomes challenge for sciences teachers to teach science maximally to the students.One of the efforts is revising the learning system.In education field, science learning is called as natural sciences learning.Natural science (IPA) is collection of knowledge that is arranged systematically about natural indication.Natural science development is not only about fact, but also scientific method and scientific attitude.It is hoped that natural science education can be tool for students to learn surrounding nature.Also, the continually prospect development can be implemented in daily life.(Depdiknas, 2008).
Based on the result of survey in Surakarta, it is showed that the score of natural science is lower than the others subjects.In conducting examination, the score of natural science is in the lowest rank compared with other subjects.On the national examination in academic year of 2013/104, the average of Indonesian Language is 8.26, mathematics 7.38, while natural science is 7.29.Then, on the national examination in academic year of 2014/2015, the score of natural science has significant decreased with average 62.43.Starting from that, it is a challenge for teachers to be able to convey the science lessons as much as possible to the students.One effort that can be done to maximize learning outcomes is by improvements in the learning system.
Learning outcomes of students are influenced by internal factors and external factors.Internal factors including the students' interest and willingness in managing the material received.External factors include the availability of media and the presence of a teacher in the learning process.Learning is a process of interaction between students and teachers, both in the classroom and outside of classroom by using learning source and learning media.
Learning resources can be obtained from teachers, books, or printed media and other audio media that are expected to gain a wider knowledge.Progress in education will not happen without improving the learning process used.In other words, the quality of education is strongly influenced by the quality of learning.Therefore, the lessons to be implemented should be adjusted to the mandate of Government Regulation No. 19 of 2005 on National Education Standards, one of the standards to be developed is the process standard.
Then, to obtain good results in the learning process, it should be supported by the appropriate media that, because the learning media is an intermediary or the introduction of good communication and fun between teachers with students.The students' spirit will arise when the atmosphere is so fun and learning will be effective when they are happy in learning.Teachers' ability in designing and implementing learning media is the key to the success of fun learning process.
Grouping Learning media are very diverse, Seel and Glasgow (1990: 181-183) classify the media into two broad categories: traditional media and latest technology media.Learning media with modern technology usually involves emerging technologies such as cassette playback, video, recordings.While traditional media can be created manually by the teacher or containing classic elements by using materials and tools that are easily found in the environment.Teachers must be creative to create learning media in order to make learning condition which is educative, effective, and optimally efficient.
In this global era, the main multimedia is in form of ICT (Information Technology and communication) becomes a fundamental requirement in determining the quality and effectiveness of the learning process.According to Alhamuddin (2010) the process of learning using multimedia makes the learning is more deeply and fun, while for teachers the utilization of media is easier and very helpful in the process of effective learning.From Dryden and Vios ( 2003) study, it can be concluded from the results of their research that in successful education, self-image was more important than the learning materials.Thus, the concept of future education is directed to how to excite learners to learn in a fun way.
Nowadays, one of the trending technologies is Augmented Reality.Suryawinata (2010) stated that Augmented Reality is combination between virtual and reality world made by computer.The virtual object can be text, animation, 3D model or video that gathered with the real environment, so that the users can feel the virtual object is in their environment.Augmented Reality belongs to new technology branch.However, the development is fast.So far, this technology is used in various fields, especially in military and advertisement.And now, it started applying in education field.Elango (2015) in his research showed positive result in implementing Augmented Reality on mathematics learning.Then, Chiang, Yang & Hwang (2015) stated that there is increasing of students' understanding in learning science through media based Augmented Reality.Also, research by Kucuk, Zilmas, and Goltas (2015) showed positive result in utilization of Augmented Reality in learning language.
In short, object can be seen more real through Augmented Reality.Therefore, it is very interesting if it is applied in learning process, especially in natural science, for it has many topics that can be learned through picture or visual.Besides, Augmented Reality can be accessed via OS Android in phone facility.
Therefore, in this research, the researcher developed new innovation in natural science learning in elementary school.It is hoped that the problems above can be solved.The researcher developed assignment worksheet that utilize technology by using Augmented Reality system and can be accessed via android.
