Development of Android-Based Colloidal Learning Media to Improve Students’ Science Literacy in Chemistry Learning

Abstract

The colloid system, which is taught in class XI, is a subject that is extremely closely related to phenomena that occur in everyday life. For that we need a media that is able to convey information accurately, clearly and pleasantly so that students are taught the content's notion so that they may comprehend the material on the colloid system. Mobile learning developed is an Androidbased colloidal learning media that uses smart apps creator software. In this colloidal learning media there are several features, namely competencies, materials, videos, evaluations, libraries and developers that can be accessed with Android. This study aims to determine the characteristics of Android-based mobile learning that was developed, to determine the effect of Android-based mobile learning to student activity, and to determine the effectiveness of Android-based colloidal learning media to improve students' scientific literacy in chemistry learning. This is research and development that follows the development paradigm of analysis, design, development, implementation, and assessment (ADDIE). Data were collected by means of response questionnaires, validation questionnaires, and scientific literacy tests. The data were analyzed with the percentage that met the requirements, qualified categorization, and the N-gain test. Practitioner and student responses were highly qualified with 80.95% and 89.02%, respectively. The result of effectiveness experiment got 0.62 N-gain with medium category. It can be concluded that android-based mobile learning is effective for improving students' scientific literacy on colloidal system material.
