PENGEMBANGAN ROLE PLAYING GAME (RPG) BERBASIS ANDROID UNTUK MATERI SISTEM PERSAMAAN LINEAR DUA VARIABEL
DEVELOPMENT OF AN ANDROID-BASED ROLE PLAYING GAME (RPG) FOR A TWO-VARIABLE SYSTEM OF LINEAR
ABSTRAK
Matematika mempunyai kedudukan yang sangat signifikan terhadap tumbuh dan berkembangnya ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi. Salah satu materi pada pelajaran matematika yaitu Sistem Persamaan Linear Dua Variabel (SPLDV). Peran penting media dalam pembelajaran matematika yaitu mampu mempengaruhi motivasi belajar peserta didik dan mampu mempengaruhi daya abstraksi peserta didik. Penelitian ini bertujuan menghasilkan produk media belajar yang dikemas dalam bentuk permainan Role Playing Game (RPG) berbasis android untuk materi SPLDV yang memenuhi kriteria valid, praktis dan efektif. Penelitian ini menggunakan teknik analisis deskriptif kuantitatif dan menggunakan model pengembangan Borg and Gall yang disederhanakan oleh Tim Puslitjaknov dengan batasan oleh peneliti menjadi empat tahap, yaitu (1) perencanaan, melakukan kajian terhadap literatur dan melakukan kunjungan ke sekolah (2) pengembangan produk, mengembangkan media RPG dengan bantuan RPG MAKER MV dan export ke .apk menggunakan android studio (3) validasi dan revisi, (4) uji coba lapangan skala kecil. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa media Role Playing Game (RPG) berbasis android untuk materi SPLDV memperoleh persentase kevalidan 93,33% dengan kategori sangat valid. Kepraktisan media Role Playing Game (RPG) mendapatkan persentase 88,89% dengan kategori sangat praktis. Kepraktisan dinilai dari angket penggunaan media yang dilakukan oleh 9 peserta didik. Sedangkan untuk keefektifan media Role Playing Game (RPG ) memperoleh persentase respon positif peserta didik sebesar 91,67% maka media Role Playing Game (RPG) dikatakan efektif. Disimpulkan bahwa media Role Playing Game (RPG) berbasis android untuk materi SPLDV atau SPLDV MATH memenuhi kriteria valid, praktis, dan efektif sehingga layak dipakai peserta didik sebagai media belajar untuk menaikkan motivasi dan minat peserta didik dalam belajar serta menaikkan kemampuan peserta didik dalam materi SPLDV.

ABSTRACT
Mathematics has a very significant position on the growth and development of science and technology. One of the materials in mathematics is the Two Variable Linear Equation System (SPLDV). The important role of media in learning mathematics is able to influence students' learning motivation and able to influence students' abstraction power. This study aims to produce learning media products that are packaged in the form of an Android-based Role Playing Game (RPG) for SPLDV material that meets the valid, practical and effective criteria. This study uses quantitative descriptive analysis techniques and uses the Borg and Gall development model which is simplified by the Puslitjaknov Team with limitations by the researchers into four stages, namely (1) planning, conducting a literature review and conducting school visits (2) product development, developing media RPG with the help of RPG MAKER MV and export to .apk using android studio (3) validation and revision, (4) small-scale field trials. The results showed that the Android-based Role Playing Game (RPG) media for SPLDV material obtained a validity percentage of 93.33% with a very valid category. The practicality of the Role Playing Game (RPG) media got a percentage of 88.89% in the very practical category. Practicality was assessed from a media use questionnaire conducted by 9 students. As for the effectiveness of the Role Playing Game (RPG) media, the percentage of positive responses from students is 91.67%, so the Role Playing Game (RPG) media is said to be effective. It was concluded that the Android-based Role Playing Game (RPG) media for SPLDV or SPLDV MATH material met the valid, practical, and effective criteria so that it was appropriate for students to use it as a learning medium to increase students' motivation and interest in learning and increase students' abilities in SPLDV material.
