Using 3D-Pageflip Based Learning in Learning Chemistry: How does It Effect on Students' Academic Achievement?

Abstract

Using learning media on technology-based is one of the most crucial aspects of the study process nowadays. Utilizing learning media on technology-based is an effort to integrate technology into the study process. The research aimed to investigate the use of 3D-Pageflip-based learning media (3DP-LM) as the application of technology in chemistry learning toward students' academic achievement (SAA). This research used a quasi-experimental approach with a non-equivalent control group and post-test only. The sample in this study consisted of 65 eleventh-grade students (16-17 years old) in a high school in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. There were two groups of the total sample used in this research; the experimental group with 3D-LM (E-3D-LM group) and the control group with PowerPoint media (C-PPt-M group). The instruments applied in the research consisted of 3DP-LM, validation sheets of 3DP-LM, and student chemistry learning achievement test (SCLAT). The findings in this study indicate that the 3DP-LM was valid and reliable to be applied in the research process. The outcome of data analysis shows that there are differences in SSA between students in the E-3D-LM group and the C-PPt-M group. The E-3D-LM group is better than the C-PPt-M group. Moreover, the effect size estimation based on Cohen'd confirmed that the application of 3DP-LM has a positive impact on SAA. This research suggested that 3DP-LM is a technology-based media that can be applied in chemistry learning widely.
