Development of mind mapping-based comics to improve math learning outcomes

Abstract

<div><p>This study aims to develop, study the feasibility and effectiveness of mathematics comic media based on <em>mind mapping</em> for fifth-grade students of public elementary schools in Demak. The method used is the Sugiyono Research and Development model consisting of 7 steps. The data analysis technique used descriptive statistics, t-test, z-test and n-gain. The results showed the development process of mathematical comic media based on mind mapping on speed and discharge topics with the local cultural background of Demak city. Media was assessed by material, media, and language experts, and It showed valid results and very feasible to be implemented. This media's effectiveness is indicated by the improvement of the Students’ learning outcomes and learning achievement. Students and teachers' response about this media shows positive responses because the comic media are practical and complete content, such as (material, question, assignment, solution, and evaluation).

“…et al 2018) Borg and Gall model has ten steps in developing instructional model and media including potential and problems, data collection, developing initial products, initial field testing, product revision, field trial, revision, operational field test, final product revision and product destination and implementation. However, the researcher of this study conducted only seven steps of the procedure (Trimurtini, et al 2021).…”

“…The studies on comics found in educational journals in Indonesia mostly focus on how to design and develop instructional comics which are then utilized in the learning process. Some of the studies utilized created comics as a material resource and they effectively were to improve student's learning outcomes (Trimurtini et al, 2021;Maryani, et al, 2018 because comics are interesting and produce good learning atmosphere (Fatimah, et al 2019).

However, the researcher of this study conducted only seven steps of the procedure(Trimurtini, et al 2021).DDDD model which involves four steps including 1) define; 2) design; 3) develop; and 4) disseminate is used in this study as well(Ntobuo, et al 2018). The 4 D is a simple instructional design model which helps the researcher to design a product(Irawan, et al 2018).Plomp model, in addition, was also employed by researcher to develop instructional materials.…”
