Measuring Impaired Student Brainwaves for Determining Their Preparedness to Study
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the relationship between brain waves and the level of readiness of students with disabilities categorized as mild-cognitive impairment in learning using EEG (Electroencephalography) signals. EEG signals are used to record electrical brain activity that is associated with various mental conditions, including learning readiness. The method used involves collecting data from students with disabilities by measuring brain waves before and during the learning process. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant correlation between certain types of brain waves, such as alpha and beta waves, with the level of student readiness in receiving learning materials. These findings are expected to provide new insights in the development of more effective learning methods that are in accordance with the mental conditions of students with disabilities, as well as being a reference for optimizing technology-based inclusive education curriculum.
