peredaran zaman yang serba berteknologi ini dan juga dengan wujudnya alat
penyiram pokok bunga automatik ini, kerja pertanian dapat dilakukan dengan
mudah. Apabila cuaca hujan, alat ini tidak akan beroperasi, maka pembaziran air
tidak akan berlaku dan tanaman tidak akan mengalami masalah terlebih air. Kerja
penyiraman dapat dilakukan dalam satu masa yang konsisten dimana ini akan
menjimatkan lagi masa serta kos upah kepada pekerja. Projek ini menggunakan
Arduino UNO sebagai papan pintar utama yang akan digabungkan bersama soil
moisture sensor yang berfungsi untuk mengarahkan pam air menyalurkan air ke
tumbuhan. Penggunaan alat penyiram automatik ini juga dapat menjimatkan kos
penggunaan air. Selain itu, penyiraman automatik juga dapat menolong orang yang
berkerja, orang tua dan pekebun untuk menyiram pokok pada waktu yang
ditetapkan supaya tanaman yang terdapat di rumah atau di kebun akan lebih
terurus dan segar dengan sistem penyiram yang teratur. Selain daripada itu,
dengan penggunaan alat penyiram automatik ini,pekebun-pekebun ataupun
pengusaha tanaman dapat mengurangkan tenaga kerja.

Learning a basic theory of food before entering a practical class will be the most
unfavorable among certain students in polytechnic. Without a good basic about the
food theory, it may bring difficulties to the student during the practical class.
Moreover, it will impact the lecturer which causes the time-consuming in order to re-
teach the student. Ensuring the student is well prepared for the practical class will
provide smooth practical work among the students. FOSFAL is designed and
address for students who have a difficulty in recognizing food items such as spices
& herbs due to the similar characteristic among the food items. Theoretically
learning process is unable to allow students to get close and well-known the food
items. FOSFAL is comprised of few sections that will introduce the food item to the
student with the application of sensory skills stage by stage. It is also equipped with
technological information to assist students to learn the characteristic of each food
item. The skill of hearing is the first part to be tested among the player during the
playing session followed by the smell, touch, sight and taste. FOSFAL can be
played in a group or individually as it was designed compatible and user-friendly.
The study has shown that the student understanding improves up to 43% when
getting involved with the FOSFAL and it is able to turn the class to be more
interesting with a mean value of 4.54. Fun and interesting learning modes while
playing the FOSFAL responsible for transforming conventional teaching and
learning methods that rely on reference books or slideshows. In addition, it is also
able to enhance student readiness, fostering teamwork and engaging student
participation, as it is needed in order to accelerate student’s learning process.
Keywords: Basic theory, practical, sensory, innovative learning.
