Science learning tools oriented on Next Generation Science Standard

Abstract

The aims of this research were to identify the appropriateness of the development of the science learning tools oriented on Next Generation Science Standard and analyzed to improve asking questionsdefining problems skills. Asking questionsdefining problems is one of the main skills in Next Generation Science Standard. Science learning tools which are developed in this study are the lesson plan, science worksheet, and assessment asking questionsdefining problems. This research method is Research and Development. The result of the research is the validation of the development of Next Generation Science Standard oriented IPA learning tools by expert judgements, and science teachers. The research method employed used a 4-D model consisting of define phase, design phase, develop phase, and disseminate phase. The result of the research from the validation of the development of Science Learning tools oriented on Next Generation Science Standard by expert lecturers, and science teachers. Data collection techniques in this study applied non-test techniques. Instrument validation analysis in this study used V'Aikens. Research results show that the developed lesson plan with Aiken's V value of 0.93, science worksheet with Aiken's V value of 0.92, and assessment asking questionsdefining problems with Aiken's V value of 0.9. The results showed that the eligibility of the science learning tools oriented on Next Generation Science Standard was categorized as appropriate and effective to improve asking questionsdefining problems skill.
