DEVELOPMENT OF STEM-BASED FLIPBOOK ON BIODIVERSITY MATERIALS TO TRAIN CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS FOR X-GRADE STUDENTS OF SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL

Salah satu keterampilan peserta didik dalam kegiatan pembelajaran pada pendidikan abad 21 adalah keterampilan berpikir kritis. Keterampilan berpikir kritis dapat dikembangkan dengan cara dan sumber belajar yang tepat. Kondisi pandemi COVID-19 menuntut proses pembelajaran jarak jauh (PJJ) tentunya membutuhkan sumber belajar yang dapat diakses oleh guru dan siswa meskipun tidak berada dalam satu tempat. Salah satu sumber belajar yang digunakan dalam proses pembelajaran adalah media elektronik, salah satunya adalah flipbook. Flipbook adalah buku elektronik yang disajikan secara digital dan dapat dibalik yang berisi teks, gambar, audio, video, dan hyperlink. Flipbook berisi berbagai fitur yang dapat digunakan sebagai sumber belajar bagi siswa tentang materi keanekaragaman hayati dan dapat melatih siswa untuk berpikir kritis. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah menghasilkan flipbook berbasis STEM yang valid dan praktis (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics). Penelitian menggunakan model 4D (tahap Define, Design, Develop, dan Disseminate) tetapi tahap Disseminate tidak dilakukan. Kelayakan teori flipbook diperoleh dari validasi oleh dosen ahli yaitu dosen ahli materi dan pendidikan serta guru biologi SMA. Validasi flipbook diukur berdasarkan aspek penyajian, isi, dan kebahasaan. Uji kepraktisan dinilai berdasarkan respon siswa yang dikumpulkan melalui angket 13 siswa X MIA 4 SHS 14 Surabaya. Teknik analisis yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kuantitatif. Flipbook dikatakan sangat layak dengan hasil validitas 90,75% dengan kriteria sangat valid. Flipbook juga dinyatakan sangat praktis berdasarkan hasil angket respon siswa sebesar 93,1% dengan kriteria sangat praktis. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa flipbook berbasis STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) materi keanekaragaman hayati untuk melatih berpikir kritis yang telah dikembangkan dinyatakan valid dan praktis.

One of the skills of students in learning activities in 21st century education is critical thinking skills. Critical thinking skills can be developed by means and appropriate learning resources. The COVID-19 pandemic condition requires the distance learning process (PJJ) of course to require learning resources that can be accessed by teachers and students even though they are not in one place. One of the learning resources used in the learning process is electronic media, one of which is flipbook. Flipbook is an electronic book that is presented digitally and can be flipped that contains text, images, audio, video, and hyperlinks. Flipbook contains various features that can be used as learning resources for students on biodiversity material and can train students to think critically. The purpose of this research was produced a valid and practical STEM-based flipbook (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics). Research used 4D models (Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate stage) but Disseminate stage was not carried out. The theoretical feasibility of the flipbook was obtained from validation by expert lecturers, namely material and education expert lecturers and high school biology teachers. Flipbook validation was measured based on  presentation, content, and linguistic aspects. The practicality test was evaluted based on student's responses collected by questionnaire of 13 students X MIA 4 SHS 14 Surabaya. The analysis technique was quantitative descriptive. The flipbook was said to be very feasible with a validity result of 90.75 % with very valid criteria. Flipbook is also stated to be very practical based on the results of the student response questionnaire of 93.1% with very practical criteria. It can be concluded that the flipbook based on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) on biodiversity material to train critical thinking that has been developed is declared valid and practical.
