Abstract

This research aims to develop an Arduino Uno-based learning media that focuses on measuring the density of substances, with the aim of determining the suitability of the density meter, the accuracy of the density meter and improving students' critical thinking skills. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D) with a Four-D model with the steps Define, Design, Develop and Disseminate. This learning media is designed to provide students with practical experience in understanding the concept of density through direct experiments using a density meter connected to an Arduino Uno. Apart from that, this media is also designed to encourage students to develop critical thinking skills, such as analysis, evaluation and problem solving skills through reflective questions that are integrated into learning. Validation and testing are carried out through certain stages to ensure the quality and effectiveness of this learning media. Assessments are carried out on aspects of clarity of instructions, relevance to lesson material, appropriateness of level of difficulty, and impact on students' critical thinking abilities. The collected data was analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The results of the development of the density meter tool show that the assessment of experts  is in the very appropriate category with a score of 90.50. The tool's accuracy results are an average of 99.55%. Apart from that, the post-test results revealed that the density meter was proven to be effective in improving students' critical thinking skills with an N-Gain value of 0.80 in the high category. It is hoped that the results of this research can make a positive contribution in the development of learning media that focuses on practical aspects and critical thinking skills. It is hoped that the Density Meter learning media using Arduino Uno can help teachers teach density concepts with a more interesting and effective approach, as well as encourage students to think more critically in understanding and applying science concepts in everyday life.

Abstract

This research explores the development and innovative implementation of an Arduino Uno-based Geiger-Muller counter (GMC) as a physics learning tool designed to enhance students’ critical thinking skills. The aim was to address the gap in effective educational media in teaching radioactivity materials. This research used the analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation (ADDIE) model, which includes the analysis, design, implementation development, and evaluation stages. The sample of this study involved 165 students at University of PGRI Pontianak, using a pre-experimental design with one pretest-posttest group. Validation by experts and feedback from students confirmed the high validity and effectiveness of the media, with significant improvements seen in critical thinking indicators such as evaluation, analysis, interpretation, and inference. The use of real-world materials, including red Borneo agate testing, provided a practical context that enriched the learning experience. Although there was no control group, the findings suggest that integrating hands-on technology-based tools into physics education can significantly improve students’ critical thinking skills. This study contributes to the growing literature on educational innovation, offering practical solutions to improve critical thinking in science education through interactive and contextually relevant learning media.

Abstract

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah 1) untuk mengetahui hasil belajar materi klasifikasi makhluk hidup sebelum mengunakan media permainan kartu klasifikasi berbasis peta konsep pada peserta didik kelas VII SMP Islam Baburrohmah Tahun Pelajaran 2022/2023, 2) untuk mengetahui hasil belajar materi klasifikasi makhluk hidup sesudah mengunakan media permainan kartu klasifikasi berbasis peta konsep pada peserta didik kelas VII SMP Islam Baburrohmah Tahun Pelajaran 2022/2023, 3) untuk mengetahui perbedaan hasil belajar sebelum dan sesudah menggunakan media Permainan Kartu Klasifikasi Berbasis Peta Konsep peserta didik kelas VII SMP Islam Baburrohmah Tahun Pelajaran 2022/2023. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pre-experimental design dengan model One Group Pretest Posttest Design. Tempat yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah SMP Islam Baburrohamh Mojosari Tahun Pelajaran 2022/2023. Populasi penelitian yaitu kelas VIII sebanyak 66 siswa tanpa adanya sampel dikarenakan jumlah kurang dari 100, Teknik pengumpulan data dengan tes tertulis dan dokumentasi. Teknik analisis data yang digunakan untuk menganalisis data dalam penelitian ini adalah N-gain dan uji-t. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian terdapat perbedaan hasil belajar peserta didik sebelum dan sesudah menggunakan media permainan kartu klasifikasi berbasis peta konsep pada mata pelajaran IPA materi klasifikasi makhluk hidup kelas VII SMP Islam Baburrohmah Mojosari Tahun Pelajaran 2022/2024. Hal ini dapat ditunjukkan dengan adanya selisih nilai rata- rata antara pretest dan posttest (Gain d) yaitu 46,06 dan nilai thitung 38.20 yang berarti lebih besar dari nilai ttabel = 1.67.
