Hello, CIMSA!
Based on data from the Scientific American Survey (1994), the annual contribution of Indonesian scientists and scholars to knowledge, science, and technology is only 0.012 percent. The low interest in research is caused by the lack of knowledge and understanding of writing scientific papers properly and correctly. To increase the knowledge and understanding of SCORE CIMSA UI members about basic research, SCORE CIMSA UI held an online training event named SGP Level 1 REBOOT (SCORE Basic Research Training) on Saturday, 4th September 2022. SGP Level 1: REBOOT event was held via Zoom Meeting, consisting of 2 sessions of webinars, an ice-breaking session, and a workshop session with a total duration of 285 minutes.
Before the webinar started, participants were given a pre-test to determine their initial understanding of the webinar’s material. After that, we began the first webinar session, which was presented by SCORE CIMSA UI alumni, Eric Ferdinand. He explained the introduction and concept of statistical analysis and how to implement it by using SPSS. After knowing more about statistical analysis and SPSS, participants had the opportunity to practice it directly. The workshop activity was held successfully due to the high enthusiasm of the participants.
Before getting into the next webinar session, we had an ice-breaking session to lighten up the mood. We played guess the childhood photos of CIMSA UI and SCORE UI members for 20 minutes. The ice-breaking session was held successfully with the members participation.
The second session of the webinar was presented by SCORE CIMSA UI alumni, Nadine Aurelie. She explained basic research knowledge comprehensively, such as types of data, how to calculate sample size, sampling techniques, research instruments, and instrument validity and reliability. Before the webinar started, participants were given a pre-test to determine their initial understanding of the webinar’s material.
After this event, SCORE CIMSA UI members are expected to understand more about the basics of research and ready to use their knowledge in SCORE CIMSA UI future activities.
