Pengembangan Modul IPA Berbasis Etnosains pada Materi Gerak dan Gaya untuk Meningkatkan Keterampilan Penyelesaian Masalah siswa SMP

Abstract

Problem solving skills of junior high school students in Indonesia are still relatively low, the cause of the low is because the teaching materials used are still not specifically focused on improving problem solving skills. The purpose of this study was to examine the validity, effectiveness, and practicality aspects of the module in learning. This module was developed based on the need for teaching materials that are not only able to strengthen conceptual understanding, but can also connect motion and force material with local culture, especially Banyuwangi Regency. The method used is Research and Development (R&D) using the ADDIE model development design which includes analyze, design, develop, implement, and evaluate. Data collection techniques used module validation sheets, learning implementation sheets, pre-test and post-test questions and student response questionnaires. The results of the study showed that: (1) the ethnoscience-based module obtained a content validity score of 95%, which indicates a "very valid" category; (2) the practicality score reached 87.5%, indicating that this module is easy to use by teachers and students; and (3) the student response questionnaire score for the module reached 81.67%, indicating a positive response from students. In conclusion, the ethnoscience-based module is considered effective and suitable for use in improving problem-solving skills of junior high school students.
