Simple Harmonic Motion Electronic Teaching Materials Based on Authentic Learning to Train Students’ Problem-Solving Skills: Aspects of Validity

Abstract

The absence of teaching materials that can train students’ problem-solving skills optimally is the background of this research. This study describes the validity of simple harmonic motion electronic teaching materials based on authentic learning to train students’ problem-solving skills. This research is development research with the ASSURE model that focuses on the Utilization of Instructional Materials stage. The instrument used is the validity sheet of electronic teaching materials. The validity of electronic teaching materials is viewed from the aspect of content, construct, and appearance. The validation of electronic teaching materials is carried out by three validators: two expert validators and one practitioner validator. The data analysis technique used descriptive statistics. The results showed that the validity of electronic teaching materials with an average score of 3.87 was categorized as good. It was concluded that the simple harmonic motion electronic teaching material based on authentic learning was declared valid to train students’ problem-solving skills. Furthermore, these electronic teaching materials can be used as teaching materials in the classroom to determine the practicality and effectiveness of the developed teaching materials.
