Abstract
Problem solving skills are one of the skills needed by students in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0, so it becomes a challenge for a teacher to design creative learning. One of the media that supports students' problem solving skills is to use worksheets. Meanwhile, the worksheets used so far are general in nature. Suitable worksheets are developed that support students in solving problems, namely problem solving-based worksheets. This study aims to analyze the need for problem solving-based student worksheets. This type of research is a qualitative descriptive study. This needs analysis is part of the research and development of the 4D model, specifically the Define stage. The subjects in this study were students of class XII in SMA Negeri 3 Cirebon City and chemistry teachers as informants. The results showed that students needed worksheets that were more attractive and easy to understand. The worksheets available are in accordance with KD, KI and the 2013 curriculum, but not yet according to student needs. Based on data obtained from several analyzes including analysis of student perceptions, teacher perceptions, student characteristics, curriculum, assignments, concepts and analysis of learning objectives. So it is necessary to develop problem solving worksheets, especially in the matter of ionic equilibrium and pH of salt solutions which can train students to solve problems and relate theory to facts in everyday life.
Highlights
One of the biggest challenges for teachers in the era of industrial revolution 4.0 is making learning designs that can improve problemsolving skills in students (Purwaningsih et al, 2020); Learning is not just transferring knowledge, but prioritizing the involvement of students actively in the learning process
This student perception analysis aims to obtain information about the student worksheets product specifications needed by students, so students are given a questionnaire about students' perceptions of chemistry learning as well as information about the student worksheets used so far
This is due to the similarity of the ionic equilibrium and pH of the salt solution with the previous material, namely the buffer solution, so that students are still quite difficult to distinguish between the two materials
Summary
One of the biggest challenges for teachers in the era of industrial revolution 4.0 is making learning designs that can improve problemsolving skills in students (Purwaningsih et al, 2020); Learning is not just transferring knowledge, but prioritizing the involvement of students actively in the learning process. Teachers are expected to use teaching materials that can make students more active in solving problems as a tool in the learning process and can be used as a learning resource. One of the teaching materials that teachers can use to create active and independent learning is using. Worksheets includes printed teaching materials (in addition to handouts, modules, books) that can help teaching and learning process (Zulyadaini, 2017). Student worksheets can help students improve scientific literacy of students (Ekantini & Wilujeng, 2018)
