STKIP Bengkulu Mathematics Education students make a comparative study to FMIPA UNY. The group was welcomed by the Head of the Mathematics Education Department, Dr. Sugiman, Coordinator of the Mathematics Education study program, Dr. Ali Mahmudi, lecturer/manager of the Mathematics Laboratory, Nurhadi, M.Hum., and FMIPA public relations officer, Witono N, SIP., recently in the faculty meeting room.

Head of the comparative study, Syarif, S.Pd., M.Pd., said, they came to UNY to see and learn about mathematics lab management. As a large university, of course, the laboratories owned by FMIPA UNY are adequate as a learning resource for students. Armed with the knowledge from this visit, in the future, they will try to apply how to manage the lab properly.

Meanwhile, Sugiman said, that with visits like this, they can learn together how to manage the lab properly and make efforts so that the lab can foster student creativity.

"The Mathematics Education Department has several labs, namely the Computer Lab connected to the Local Area Network (LAN) and internet network, the Mathematics Education Lab, Mathematics Lab, Workshop Lab, and Microteaching Lab," he continued.

In addition, in the laboratory, please see the mathematical teaching created by students such as geometry, planes, etc. We hope that by vQisiting our lab, lab managers and students from STKIP Bengkulu will be inspired to develop a mathematics lab. (witono)
