The UNESA professor explained his various superior research and innovations to the central assessment team, regarding the 2024 Academic Leader nomination.
Unesa. AC ID. SURABAYA–Professor and Director of Innovation, Ranking and Scientific Publications at UNESA, Nadi Suprapto has been nominated for Academic Leader in 2024. For this need, the assessment team from the center together with UNESA conducted verification or fact finding in the Meeting Room, Floor 8, Rectorate, Campus 2 Lidah Wetan, on Friday, 27 September 2024.
This activity is intended to discuss the follow-up and review of data on Nadi Suprapto's superior products and innovations as a nominee for the 2024 Academic Leader Award in the field category education.
Vice Chancellor III for Research, Innovation, Ranking, Publication and Science Center, Bambang Sigit Widodo, said that the aim of this activity was to identify things that might need to be verified so that the required data was complete, as needed and assessment by the central team.
“UNESA lecturer and professor, Nadi Suprapto, has strong potential related to his academic leadership, both from his scientific vision, creativity and inspiring motivation. "Their research and innovation really deserve to be nominated, which will inspire others and make the institution proud," he said.
The head of the central assessment team, Nafiron Musfiqin Uddin, explained that their presence was to reconfirm the UNESA lecturer's superior program before being verified to center.

On that occasion, Nadi Suprapto explained his superior research and innovations in recent years. One of them is ethnophysics, which is an approach to learning physics that combines physics concepts with local wisdom.
Through virtual reality (VR) technology, students can learn physics in a more interesting and in-depth way in an unconventional way . For example, with VR cow racing, students can understand the concepts of force, motion and energy visually and interactively.
"This idea emerged from the principle of glocalization of education, from global to local or from local to global With this innovation, we are synergizing local wisdom, physics concepts in an effort to support UNESA's excellence in sports, arts and disabilities," he said.
Aside from VR, cattle racing. , the young UNESA professor has also developed VR lato-lato and VR rolling barrels which were immediately demonstrated in front of the examining team. In the future, he plans to develop VR for various other traditional games, such as engklek and gasing, and adapt them to the advantages of each region.
Apart from that, he has also succeeded in implementing several technology-based learning programs, such as Beboo Computer Program, STEAM-based Virtual Reality (VR), and Adventuring Physics (ASICS). These programs have proven effective in increasing students' interest and understanding of physics concepts.[]
