Chem Epic Conquest Game Based on Android to Increase Students’ Interest in Learning and Learning Outcomes on the Periodic System of Elements

This study aimed to develop an Android-based learning media in the form of the Chem Epic Conquest game on the periodic system of elements material using the ADDIE development model, which includes the analysis, design, development, and evaluation stages, and to determine the validity, practicality, and effectiveness of the developed media, without conducting the implementation stage. A limited trial was conducted on 17 tenth-grade students at SMA Kartika IV-3 Surabaya. The results showed that the Chem Epic Conquest game was declared valid, with a mode score of 5 on the aspects of content validity and construct validity. The developed media was also declared practical based on the student response questionnaire results, which obtained an average percentage of 85.67%, and was supported by the results of student activity observations with a percentage of 100%, indicating that students were actively involved and able to follow the game procedures properly. Furthermore, the Chem Epic Conquest game was declared effective in increasing students’ interest in learning and learning outcomes, as indicated by an increase in the percentage of learning interest from 36.77% to 89.71%, showing an improvement from the moderate to very high category. Students’ learning outcomes also showed a significant improvement based on the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test with a significance value of 0.00, and both individual and classical mastery learning were achieved according to the applicable Minimum Mastery Criteria (KKM). Therefore, the Chem Epic Conquest game can be used as an alternative learning media to enhance students’ interest and learning outcomes on the periodic system of elements material.
