Need Assessment of Mathematics Learning Module Based on Information Technology for Junior High School

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the need for teaching materials in the form of Flipbook as a media of information technology K-13 mathematics learning for junior high school students in class VIII semester II. The subjects of this research are 27 students of eight grades in Junior High School 2 Sukoharjo. This research is motivated by the limited available teaching materials and lack of innovation in teaching materials, so it tends to make students bored with mathematics. Data collection techniques using non-test with research instruments are a questionnaire that needs analysis and interviews. The analysis consists of 3 stages, namely front-end analysis, student analysis, and teaching material analysis The research findings show that (1) the lack of additional textbooks / other references in learning; (2) have never used learning media and the lack of facilities; (3) teachers and students need information technology-based mathematics teaching media.

Case Study-Based Marketing Modules on Segmenting, Targeting, and Positioning Strategy Materials for Class X in Vocational High Schools

“…Changes to improve education must be carried out continuously at all levels of education as a form of anticipation for future interests. This is in line with research conducted by Azizah et al (2020), Boafo (2016) and Tian et al (2021) that education needs to be developed by considering the readiness and needs of students, the suitability of the content, and the learning evaluation process. The concept of education feels increasingly important when someone has entered the world of work or lives in society, then he must be able to solve the problems faced by applying the teaching obtained from education.…”

Digital Flipbook-Based Mathematics Teaching Materials using RME Approach to Improve Mathematical Problem-Solving Ability

“…A flipbook is a digital book that includes text, photos, audio, and video. Accordingly, books have recently changed from print to digital, making them more valuable and effective in operation (Azizah et al, 2020). UNESCO suggested in 2002 that technology be used in teaching and learning.…”

Edmodo-Based Science Module Development on Students’ Mastery of Science Process Skills: Need Analysis

“…Module-based learning is in line with the constructivist approach in which students actively build their knowledge through group discussions, interacting and acquiring information (Hamidah, 2019). Module-based learning has been widely conducted in various fields such as physics (Suprianto et al, 2018), chemistry (Lee & Kamisah, 2014), mathematics (Azizah et al, 2020), and science (Candra et al, 2020); however, the use of existing modules is mostly printed modules. The printed module is more focused on providing information but less attractive where it cannot display sound, video, animation and images that clearly explain the concept to be conveyed (Astalini et al, 2019).…”
