Abstract

The complexity of thermochemistry and its abstract nature is often difficult for students to study. To address this issue, we designed an Android-based application using Kvisoft FlipBook Maker and AppsGeyser to help their study process. This research focuses on improving students' understanding of thermochemistry through digital learning tools. Using the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate) development model, we created an interactive learning module in the form of an android application. The reason for using an android application is because there is no longer a risk that the learning module will be hidden or forgotten with other files, the application can also be accessed easily as long as it has an android device. Previous research has also indicated that a digital teaching tool can improve the understanding of chemistry learning due to attractive visualization and self-learning opportunities. This study involved validation from media and material experts, as well as assessment from chemistry teachers and students of SMA Muhammadiyah 7 Yogyakarta. The final product received high validation scores, with 97.8% from media experts, 93.3% from material experts, and 90.3% from chemistry teachers. In addition, 95.8% of students responded positively to the app. These findings suggest that the developed application is highly effective for independent student learning and can enhance engagement with thermochemistry concepts.

Abstract

Laboratory-based instruction is fundamental in chemistry education because it supports conceptual understanding through direct engagement with phenomena, evidence generation, and scientific reasoning. At the same time, current curriculum reforms in Indonesia emphasise deep learning readiness, requiring learning designs that promote inquiry, higher-order thinking, and meaningful technology use. This study examines the alignment between pre-service chemistry teachers' laboratory-teaching self-efficacy and the quality of their laboratory-oriented lesson plans in fostering deep learning readiness. Using a quantitative descriptive design complemented by systematic document analysis, the study involved 46 pre-service chemistry teachers enrolled in a school-based practicum course at an Indonesian university. Data were collected using (1) an adapted Chemistry Laboratory Teaching Self-Efficacy Scale covering experimental processes, technology use, and laboratory safety and (2) an analytic rubric to evaluate lesson plans across deep learning orientation, inquiry and reasoning structure, practicum design, higher-order assessment alignment, technology integration, safety/risk documentation, and instructional clarity. Descriptive statistics summarised efficacy and lesson plan quality, while cross-tabulation explored patterns between perceived capability and planning competence. Findings indicate that most participants reported high to very high laboratory-teaching self-efficacy, particularly in experimental procedures and safety. However, most lesson plans were rated moderate, with recurring weaknesses in the design of open inquiry, explicit higher-order assessment tasks, the purposeful integration of digital tools, and detailed safety documentation. The results suggest a partial misalignment between strong self-beliefs and the demonstrated quality of deep-learning-oriented lesson planning. The study highlights the need for teacher education programmes to combine explicit rubric-based lesson planning instruction, iterative feedback cycles, and technology-rich laboratory pedagogy to strengthen deep learning readiness in chemistry education.
