Development of Physics Learning Device Based Science Technology Society (STS) Learning Model to Improve Scientific Attitude and Students’ Understanding Concept of X Grade High School

Abstract

This research is the development of physics learning device based on the learning model of Science Technology Society (STS) which is synthesized with a scientific approach. This research aimed to produce learning device in the form of lesson plans, student book, student worksheets, and teacher handbook on momentum and impulse material that fulfilled of valid, practical, and effective criteria. The development of this learning device used 4-D model consisting of four main stages, as follows: define, design, develop, and disseminate. The device development was only carried out until the develop stage. The results data included the result of requirement analysis, product planning, validity, practicality, and effectiveness of the device. The research results were obtained (1) the learning device developed presenting issues related to momentum and impulse material, (2) the validity of the student book is evaluated with very valid category and the validity of teacher handbook is evaluated with valid category. (3) the result of practicality was measured from the implementation of learning device, teachers’ response, and students’ response with very practical category, (4) developed device effectively improve scientific attitude and students’ understanding concept.
