Development of Advanced Electronic Textbooks Based on Local Wisdom

Abstract

This study aims to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of advanced electronic textbooks based on local wisdom. This research is a development research that uses 4-D (Four-D Models) which consists of four stages, namely: defining, designing (designing), developing, and disseminate. The sample used was 68 students with the design of one group pretest posttest. Advanced electronic textbooks based on local wisdom were developed and then validated by 2 material experts and 2 media experts to find out the feasibility of the product. The results showed that the assessment of the feasibility of advanced electronic textbooks based on local wisdom by material and media experts obtained an average score of 81 and 83 with very decent criteria. The effectiveness of local wisdom based teaching textbooks was tested using paired sample t test. The results show that there is the influence of the use of advanced electronic teaching based on local wisdom on the learning process of physics. The N-Gain score shows a percentage of 80% (in the effective category). The local wisdom based textbook which is the source of learning is the "Digulis Roundabout" originating from the city of Pontianak, West Kalimantan, which is viewed from the advanced electronic concept. Student responses to the media developed showed an average score of 82% with a very good category.
