Abstract

One of the materials in biology is about viruses, which are known as "abstracts" because students cannot observe them easily. As a result, it is difficult for students to comprehend. When students were conducting practicums in the laboratory, the researcher also found that the results of the test were much lower than the minimum standard score of 75/100. Therefore, the purpose of this development research is to develop a virtual media laboratory for viral material as a learning medium that facilitates teachers and students in the learning process, which is expected to improve student learning outcomes. This research uses an R & D approach with 4D models. It consists of defining, designing, developing, and disseminating procedures. This study was done at SMA Singapore National Academy Sidoarjo with grade 10 students.

Highlights

  • Biology is a branch of science that studies natural phenomena through observation, experimentation, and rational analysis to produce facts and concepts through the scientific method

  • This research and development produces a decent and attractive virtual laboratory and is more likely to be applied as a medium of learning virus material

  • Based on the research that has been done, it can be concluded that the virtual laboratory virus material developed by the researcher shows that it is feasible to use and can improve student learning outcomes

Summary

Introduction

Biology is a branch of science that studies natural phenomena through observation, experimentation, and rational analysis to produce facts and concepts through the scientific method. Biology is the mastery of some knowledge in the form of facts, concepts, or principles, and a process of discovery. It is difficult if teachers have to bring in a concrete form of the material itself. For this reason, the presentation of this material requires media. During the process of science activities, the existence of a laboratory is very important, so biology teachers should invite students to carry out learning activities in the laboratory. There are things to keep in mind when working in the lab that could lead to accidents
