Development of Teaching Materials Based on Multiple Intelligences with Project Based Learning to Increase Creativity and Science Learning Outcomes for Grade VI Elementary School Students in Semarang City

Abstract

This research aims to examine how to develop, test the feasibility, and test the effectiveness of teaching materials based on multiple intelligences. This research procedure uses the Borg and Gall model. The results showed that teaching materials based on various bits of intelligence were very appropriate, with a presentation feasibility percentage of 100% for teaching materials experts, 87.5% for language experts, and 90.6% for content experts. This media is effective with the results of the t-test obtained t_count of 53.43 and t_table 2.09 so that there is a significant difference between the pretest and posttest learning outcomes with an average pretest of 56.8 and a posttest of 87.5, the difference is 30.7%. The average (n-gain) pretest and posttest data were increased at 0.617 with moderate criteria. This study concludes that teaching materials based on multiple intelligences are very feasible and effective for use in science learning about the solar system class VI. Suggestions for further research can apply multiple intelligence-based teaching forms that are more interactive in other materials by improving the appearance of the design and adding references to deepen the discussion of material in teaching materials.
