Abstract

Science literacy is a human's ability to understand science and use that understanding to be applied in solving a problem in everyday life. Students' science literacy skills are low due to the student's response in answering a question to explain the phenomenon has not fulfilled the aspects of science literacy. This research aims to develop an interactive multimedia Mobile Learning that is valid, practical, and effective in making students practice their science literacy skills. Interactive multimedia research and development of the Mobile Learning model uses a Research and Development model that adapts the development model of William W. Lee and Diana L. Owens. The stages of development in the model of Lee and Owens are (1) Assessment/Analysis, (2) Design, (3) Development, (4) Implementation, and (5) Evaluation. The results of this research and development obtained 97.8 percent validation value of media experts, obtained a validation value of 100 percent by topic experts, also earned an average of 94 percent value in the validation of expert assessment. So that based on the data results of this development research was very valid category the field-test results of research and development conducted with the researchers as a teacher for two meetings produced a practical test value by students of 84.42 percent, a very practicable category. The practicality test results (field practitioner) obtained a value of 100 percent, which was a very practical category. The value of effectiveness test in this study obtained an N-gain value of 16.74, which belonged to the low category (low effective).

Highlights

According to Program for International Student Assessment (PISA), science literacy is a competency that can be called the ability to include science issues related to science ideas such as depicting reflective citizens
The results of interactive multimedia validation of mobile learning about bacterial topics by media experts, topic experts, and assessment experts can be seen in Table 3 and the Mobile Learning
The topic that consists of this Mobile Learning Interactive Multimedia is based on the basic competency of 3.5 and 4.5 which is about bacteria

Summary

Introduction

According to PISA, science literacy is a competency that can be called the ability to include science issues related to science ideas such as depicting reflective citizens. In 2015 it was ranked at 64 of 72 with a score of 403 on the Science category(3), and in 2018 was ranked 74 of 79 with a score 396 on the science category(4) According to those data, Indonesian students are considered having very low science literacy. Based on the observation that has been done in the internship activity (or commonly called as Kajian Praktik Lapangan in Indonesian context) on August to September 2019 starting on 29 July-9 September 2019 precisely at SMA Negeri 4 Malang, it was known that students' ability of science literacy was still low. Multimedia is instrumental in the development of learning that contributes to students' science literacy improvement (5). One of the learning models that allow students to actively develop a concept understanding by combining knowledge with reasoned skills and thinking is inquiry learning(7)
