Goal

Duration: 10 to 15 minutes

The aim of this lesson plan is to ensure that students grasp the learning objectives related to the organization of human body systems. This will set the stage for students to actively engage in the practical and digital activities ahead, thus enriching their knowledge through a relevant and modern approach.

Goal Utama:

1. Understand the organization of the human body systems and identify the key organs that make up each system.

2. Explain how the different organs of each system work together to perform specific functions.

3. Connect the structure of the human body systems to their respective functions.

Goal Sekunder:

  1. Foster students' curiosity and enthusiasm for exploring more about how the human body operates.
  2. Encourage critical thinking and analytical skills by connecting previously covered theories with practical and digital activities.

Introduction

Duration: 10 to 15 minutes

The goal of this stage is to introduce the topic in an engaging manner and involve students in preliminary research about human body systems. This warm-up will activate prior knowledge and stimulate curiosity. Discussing the key questions will help set the context for the upcoming practical activities, encouraging active involvement and information sharing.

Warming Up

Begin the lesson by presenting the topic: Human Body: Organization of Systems. Explain that the human body is a complex machine made up of various systems that work together to maintain proper functioning. Ask students to use their phones to find an intriguing fact about any human body system. After a few minutes, invite them to share their findings with the class.

Initial Thoughts

1. What are the major systems of the human body and which organs make them up?

2. How do the systems of the human body interact with each other to keep the organism functioning?

3. Did you come across any surprising facts about the human body during your research? What interesting discoveries would you like to share?

4. Why is it important to understand how the different systems of the human body work together?

Development

Duration: 70 to 85 minutes

The purpose of this lesson stage is to give students a practical and digital experience in studying human body systems. By involving them in creative and interactive activities, we aim to reinforce their understanding of previously learned concepts, improve collaboration and communication skills, and provide a more relevant and connected learning experience in line with the digital landscape they encounter daily.

Activity Suggestions

Activity Recommendations

Activity 1 - Influencer Mission: Explaining the Human Body Systems 🎥

> Duration: 60 to 70 minutes

- Goal: To engage students in the creation of digital content, fostering an understanding of human body systems in a practical and enjoyable manner.

- Deskripsi Activity: Students will form groups to create a short video in the style of a 'digital influencer,' explaining how one of the human body systems functions in an entertaining and educational way. They should harness video editing and animation apps available on their phones or computers to make the video lively.

- Instructions:

  • Group students into teams of no more than 5 members.

  • Each group should select a human body system to explain (e.g., digestive system, respiratory system, circulatory system).

  • Students should research additional information and gather images and videos using their phones or computers.

  • Groups should then script and record a short video (3 to 5 minutes) portraying how their chosen system works and what organs it includes in an engaging manner.

  • Students can enhance their videos using editing apps like Kinemaster, iMovie, or InShot.

  • After editing, each group should share their video in the class WhatsApp group or on a platform like YouTube (with private links).

  • The videos will be screened for the entire class, followed by a brief discussion on the key points highlighted in each.

Activity 2 - Augmented Reality Adventure: Exploring the Human Body 🌐

> Duration: 60 to 70 minutes

- Goal: To employ augmented reality for an immersive visual experience in studying human body systems, promoting active and collaborative learning.

- Deskripsi Activity: Students will utilize an augmented reality (AR) application to delve into the various human body systems. Working in small groups, they will use their phones to access the app, allowing them to visualize interactive 3D models of body systems. After exploration, they will create either a digital report or presentation detailing their findings.

- Instructions:

  • Group students into teams of up to 5 members.

  • Instruct students to download a designated AR app to investigate the human body (like 'Human Anatomy Atlas' or 'AR Human Body').

  • Each group explores a human body system through the app, observing organ details and functions.

  • Ask groups to capture screenshots or short videos while exploring the 3D models.

  • Groups should compile a digital report or presentation (using tools like Google Docs, Slides, or Canva) summarizing their findings with images and descriptions of the principal organs and their functions.

  • The reports/presentations should be shared with the class via Google Classroom or a file-sharing platform.

  • Each group will then present their findings, highlighting interesting insights and any surprising facts.

Activity 3 - Interactive Game: The Journey of Body Systems 🕹️

> Duration: 60 to 70 minutes

- Goal: To encourage interactive learning and teamwork through a digital game simulating the functionality of human body systems.

- Deskripsi Activity: Students will engage in an online interactive game simulating how different human body systems function. Each group will guide an 'avatar' through challenges reflecting the operation of a specific body system, answering questions and completing tasks within the game to progress.

- Instructions:

  • Organize students into groups of no more than 5 members.

  • Instruct students to access an online educational game that explores human body systems (for instance, 'The Human Body Adventure' or 'BioMan Biology Games').

  • Each group will choose a body system to examine and guide their 'avatar' through related challenges and tasks.

  • Students will need to answer multiple-choice questions and complete missions that test their understanding of the organs and functions of the selected system throughout the game.

  • Groups should keep a record of their progress and note any new or intriguing information they gain during the game.

  • Afterward, each group will present a review of their learnings, focusing on difficult challenges and valuable insights.

  • Conclude with a discussion where groups can share their experiences and compare differing methods of learning about body systems.

Feedback

Duration: 15 to 20 minutes

The intent of this stage is to facilitate a space for students to reflect and reinforce their learning, encouraging an exchange of experiences that enriches collective understanding. The group discussion and 360° feedback promote interpersonal skills like effective communication and constructive criticism, while also bolstering group cohesion and enhancing collaboration.

Group Discussion

Conduct a group discussion among all students. Start by saying: 'Let’s kick off our discussion by sharing what each group experienced during their activities. Each group can point out the main learnings, any challenges faced, and interesting or surprising insights they uncovered about the human body systems. Try to link these discoveries back to what we have previously studied.'

Reflections

1. What were the key challenges you encountered while completing the digital activities? How did you address them? 2. How did making videos and exploring augmented reality enhance your understanding of the human body systems? 3. What was the most surprising discovery you made about the functioning of the human body systems?

Feedback 360º

Guide students to engage in a 360° feedback session. In rounds, each student should offer constructive feedback to their peers about their collaboration in the activities. Encourage specific feedback that acknowledges strengths and areas for growth, while maintaining a respectful and constructive tone. For instance, praise someone’s creativity in video editing or the clarity of their explanations.

Conclusion

Duration: 10 to 15 minutes

🎯 Purpose of the Conclusion: This stage aims to consolidate students' learning by emphasizing the primary content and reflecting on how digital technologies enhanced the lesson. By linking learning to the present world and outlining its practical applications, students are encouraged to relate what they studied to their everyday lives.
