Development of Simple Teaching Aid on Resonance Topic Using Audacity Software as Learning Media

Abstract

This study aims to develop a simple prop of resonance topic using audacity software. The research was conducted based on the model from Borg and Gall, which involved only five main steps: analyzing the developed product, developing the initial product, expert validation and revision, small-scale field trials and revisions, and large-scale trials and final products. The small-scale and large-scale feasibility tests were given to 29 students of SMAN 5 Palu Class XI IPA6. The product quality data obtained were analyzed using a descriptive analysis from quantitative data into qualitative, then the average quality score was processed using category criteria. In the analysis results, the overall average score of media experts is 2.97, categorized as “Good”. The overall average score from material experts was 3.33, categorized as “Very Good”. While the average analysis result of the overall small-scale trials was 3.35, categorized as “Very Good”, and the result of the overall large-scale trials was 3.39, categorized as “Very Good”. The overall average score obtained in the transformation in table 2 shows that the simple teaching aid on resonance topic using the Audacity software developed by the researcher was feasible to be used as a medium for learning physics in the classroom.
