Teaching Methodology and Semester Learning Plan

Teaching Methodology

Teaching and learning consist of compulsory curricula activities through various courses with measurable workloads. The course has Course Learning Outcomes (CLO), which consists of specific abilities to fulfil the Programme Learning Outcome (PLO). One course can contribute to more than one PLO. One course can employ different teaching methodologies to achieve CLO. According to Higher Education Law (Permendikbud No.3/2020), teaching methodologies in higher education are discussion group, simulation, case study/case-based learning, collaborative learning, cooperative learning, project-based learning, problem-based learning, or other teaching methodologies. As per the Freedom of Learning (MBKM) policy, students can engage in different forms of learning, including studying, tutorials, seminars, practicum, research, workshop, student exchange, apprenticeship, entrepreneur, and community services.

Examples of several types of courses related to teaching methodology are Table 1 below:

Tabel 1. Several Types of Teaching Methodologies

No Types of Activities Teaching Methodology Example of Courses
1 Lecture Lecturing, discussion, collaborative and cooperative learning, problem-based learning, project-based learning, case-based learning General Biology, Basic Ecology, teaching methodology, assessment, and others
2 Practicum Project-based learning Basic Biology Practicum, Plant Physiology Practicum, Animal Structure and Development Practicum, Teaching competency Development, etc.
3 Fieldwork Project-based learning Zoology, Botany, ecology, study excursion etc

Teaching instruments and teaching methods are designed and implemented to support the achievement of Learning Outcomes (LO) and are written in the study plan. Instruments to be used include printed media, electronic media, e-learning, Model. Learning methods to be applied is a combination of Teaching Centered Learning (TCL, e.g., class teaching, demonstration, and practices), Student-Centered Learning (SCL, e.g., group discussion, problem-based learning), and Research Methodology (i.e., students are trained to search kinds of literature, find research ideas, write proposals, research reports, and papers, and give presentations).
