Abstract

This study identifies the initial ICT skills and basic competencies of learning technology for students in learning basic physics. This research was conducted in three different universities in Makassar Indonesia. The research instrument is a test instrument for the basic competency test of learning technology, and a non-test instrument in the form of a learning technology capability questionnaire. The results showed that the average percentage of student learning technology competence in three tertiary institutions in Makassar was level 1 with a percentage of 94.39%- level 2 57.50%- level 3 78.17%- level 4 67.77%- level 5 76.03%- and level 6 67.55%. This shows that the competency of student learning technology for level 1 is in the very good category, and levels 3 and 5 are in the good category. While at level 4, and 6 are in the medium category, while at level 2 it is still in the bad category. The initial ability of learning technology on the attitude aspect is in the high category while the social emotional aspect is also in the moderate category. This shows that the use of learning technology really needs special attention to the social emotional aspects, especially ethics. Therefore, it can be said that the relationship between the initial ability of student learning technology and its use as a medium for learning basic physics is very close. The ability of good learning technology will have the potential for the use of good learning technology
