Development of Science Literature Instruments Contained Ethnoscience in Science Subject for Class IV Elementary School Students

Abstract

This study aimed to produce scientific literacy instruments containing ethnoscience for grade IV elementary school on science subject theme number 9 "Kayanya Negeriku" which is valid, reliable, feasible, and practical. This research method used R&D research with ADDIE research design (analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation). The steps developed include design, expert validation, small-scale trials, and large-scale trials. The instrument developed is a reasoned multiple choice instrument. The data collection technique in this development research was a test (multiple choice) and a practicality questionnaire. The results of the validation of scientific literacy instruments containing ethnoscience are valid, the reliability value during small-scale trials was 0.671 and when large-scale trials were 0.711 these values indicate the instrument is reliable. The differentiating power of small-scale questions obtained 20 multiple-choice questions for grade IV elementary school, there were 10 items received, 2 items were accepted but needed to be corrected, and 8 items were corrected. The analysis of large-scale discrepancy from 20 questions contained 11 items for the criteria for the items to be accepted, 3 items were accepted but needed to be corrected, and 6 items were corrected. Testing results of the difficulty level gained the results of quantitative analysis on a small scale for the level of difficulty of the questions stated that, as many as 2 questions with easy criteria, 13 questions with medium criteria and 5 questions with difficult criteria. While the results of quantitative analysis on a large scale for the level of difficulty of the questions stated that, as many as 3 items with difficult criteria, 17 questions with moderate criteria and for easy criteria were not found in large-scale trials. The practicality of the instrument can be decided based on the percentage of practicality. The percentage obtained from the teacher's assessment is in very practical criteria. Keywords: Development, Instrument, Science Literacy, Ethnoscience.

Analisis Aktivitas Dan Hasil Belajar Siswa Sekolah Dasar Pada Pembelajaran Di Masa New Normal

“…Masing-masing siswa memiliki perbedaan kesiapan dan adaptasi selama melaksanakan pembelajaran dimasa pandemi Covid-19 (Nuryani et al, 2021). Tidak jarang juga siswa merasa jenuh dalam belajar, terlebih siswa dikelas rendah yang membutuhkan pendampingan lebih dalam belajar (Mar'ah, Rusilowati, & Sumarni, 2020). Kejenuhan yang dialami siswa ini membuat siswa menjadi lebih sulit dalam memahami materi, karena siswa secara mandiri harus mampu membangun pengetahuannya.…”

The Effect of Using Social Media Towards Students' Motivation and Learning Outcomes During the Covid-19 Pandemic

“…The Covid-19 pandemic that occurred in early 2020 has affected all aspects of life in all parts of the world. One of them has an impact on the world of education (Agarwal et al, 2020;Mar'ah et al, 2020;Purwanto et al, 2020;Su et al, 2020). Due to the increasing spread of Covid-19, on March 4, 2020 UNESCO suggested starting distance learning and opening an educational platform that can be used by schools and educators to reach students from afar as a step to tackle the spread of Covid-19 (UNESCO, 2020).…”
