Pengembangan media emodul berbasis multiple intellegences untuk meningkatkan pemahaman konsep struktur bumi

Abstract

In science learning students should build their own knowledge by discovering concepts through observing and investigating natural phenomena. The limitations media make it difficult for teachers to teach material learning. In the earth material structure students need direct observation because the nature of the material tends to be abstract. Students need to concretize the abstract concept into a concrete concept. Therefore, the purpose of this research to determine attractiveness of emodule media science learning based on multiple intelligences of earth structure material and differences in understanding of concept between control and experimental class that use emodule. This research and development uses R&D with Borg and Gall adapted development model. The subjects of this research were 120 seventh grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Sugio. Instruments used was a validation sheet, a questionnaire of elegability and product attractiveness for students, as well as a test sheet. The media development result have valid and suitable for use with average validity 88.30% from material expert, design, and science teacher. The research results obtained media attractiveness value 77.8% . The Z test obtained significance 0.00 so that it can be concluded that learning media is interesting for students. From t test on posttest value, obtained significance 0.00. This means that there are differences in the results of understanding concept of earth structure material between student at control and experimental class.
