Development of Integrated Science Teaching Materials on Energy Materials with a Contextual Approach for Junior High School Students

Abstract

This study aims to develop integrated science teaching materials on energy materials with a contextual approach for junior high school students. The theme used in the teaching materials is the source of energy in life. This type of research is research and development (Research and Development) based on the steps of the ADDIE model. The research was conducted through the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The teaching materials developed were validated by material expert validators and media expert validators, then teaching materials were given to science teachers and 20 students to find out responses to the developed teaching materials. The data collection instrument in this study was a questionnaire/questionnaire with a Likert scale of 1-4. The subjects in this study were grade VII students. The results of the assessment of teaching materials developed by material experts were 3.60 categorized as "Very Good", the average score of media experts was 3.53 categorized as "Very Good", the average teacher assessment score was 3.35 and categorized " Very Good", and the results of student analysis obtained an average score of 3.35 and categorized as "Strongly Agree". The results of the study indicate that the teaching materials that have been developed are suitable for use in the learning process.
