Abstract

Scientific reasoning is an important skill that needs to be taught in science learning in the 21st century to prepare students for the challenges of globalization. However, students' scientific reasoning skills in Indonesia are still low, as revealed in the 2018 PISA study. Therefore, a more interactive and effective learning approach is needed. The purpose of this study is to analyze students' scientific reasoning skills in momentum and impulse material and describe students' responses to the implementation of LINE Webtoon digital comics. This study used a pre-experimental research design with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The research sample consisted of students of class X MIPA 6 at SMA Negeri 1 Purwoharjo. Data were collected through pretest and posttest tests, student response questionnaires, and interviews with students and teachers. Data analysis was carried out using N-Gain to measure the improvement of students' scientific reasoning skills and Likert scale to analyze students' responses to the implementation of LINE Webtoon digital comics.The results showed an increase in students' scientific reasoning skills after the implementation of LINE Webtoon digital comics on momentum and impulse material. The average student score increased from 44.72 in the pretest to 77.63 in the posttest. The percentage of improvement in students' scientific reasoning skills was 60% with moderate criteria. The implementation of LINE Webtoon digital comics is effective in improving students' scientific reasoning skills on momentum and impulse materials. Students showed an increase in concept understanding, critical thinking skills, and interest in the material through the use of digital comics as learning media. Students' responses to the implementation of LINE Webtoon digital comics were also positive, with the majority of students showing good responses to the use of the media.
