Development of PBL Modul-El to Improve Problem Solving Students of Physics Education Program

Abstract

Electronic modules are teaching materials that are systematically arranged to achieve learning objectives in electronic form with which includes writing, animation, video, and navigation that makes learning more interesting, interactive, active, and motivating which can facilitate students' problem solving skills. This study aims to see whether there is an increase in students' problem solving skills after using PBL-based el-modules. The method in this research is research and development, which is a research method used to produce and test the feasibility of certain products. The subjects of this study were second semester students who were taking basic physics courses. This research was conducted at the Physics Education Study Program of Sarjanawiyata Tamansiswa University with the subject matter of "Effort and Energy". This research used pre-test and post-test one group design. The results of this study indicate that the science el-module PBL model can improve students' problem solving skills as shown by the results of the normalized gain test of 0.70. It was concluded that there was a significant increase in the post-test results which indicated that the el-modulemade could be used to improve problem solving skills.
