The development of android-based science learning media on human eyes topic

Abstract

Either field or literature studies recommended the need of learning media on human eyes topic which present learning objectives, materials, evaluations, and assessments. Also, the learning media should be able to support independent, interactive, and fun learnings. Learning media is developed through the steps of research and development. The developed product was an android application named “Human Eye Optics.” The product characteristics were: providing menus: learning objectives, materials, simulations, exercises, and evaluations; each menu has sub-menus such as eye parts, viewing process, and eye disorders; having five interactive and communicative simulation submenus; materials are described attractively through the use of full-color text and images; the teacher can use it as a learning device since it has covered learning objectives, materials, quizzes, exercises, and evaluations with assessment; the application could be referred to as an independent and repeatable learning source; and usable at anywhere and anytime. The product feasibility was categorized as “excellent” with a score of 4,60. The same thing went with the practicality which belonged to the “excellent” category with a score of 4,51. The effectivity achieved “high” with an n-gain of 0,76 while the average student activity was 89,02% and declared to be “very good.”.
