PENGEMBANGAN MEDIA GAME “SCIENCE MISSION” BERBASIS ANDROID PADA MATA PELAJARAN IPA MATERI PERUBAHAN WUJUD BENDA KELAS V SEKOLAH DASAR

THE MEDIA DEVELOPMENT OF ANDROID-BASED “SCIENCE MISSION” GAME TOWARDS SCIENCE LESSON ON THE FORM CHANGES MATERIAL AT CLASS V ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Penelitian pengembangan ini dilatarbelakangi oleh terbatasnya penggunaan media dalam proses pembelajaran. Penelitian pengembangan media ­­game “Science Mission” ini bertujuan mengetahui kevalidan, kepraktisan, serta keefektifan media ­­game “Science Mission” dalam meningkatkan hasil belajar peserta didik materi perubahan wujud benda kelas V Sekolah Dasar. Peneliti menggunakan jenis penelitian Research and Development (R&D) dari Borg and Gall yang memiliki 10 tahapan. Namun peneliti menyederhanakannya menjadi 7 tahapan pengembangan sesuai dengan modifikasi oleh Pratama et al., (2016). Instrumen yang digunakan dalam penelitian pengembangan ini meliputi lembar validasi, lembar angket respon guru dan peserta didik, serta lembar tes yang tediri dari pretest dan posttest. Jumlah subjek dalam penelitian yaitu 10 peserta didik kelas V SDN Kebonsari Kabupaten Lamongan. Tingkat kevalidan media diperoleh dari hasil uji validasi oleh ahli materi sebesar 90% dengan kategori sangat valid, dan uji validasi oleh ahli media sebesar 86% dengan kategori sangat valid. Tingkat kepraktisan media diperoleh dari hasil angket respon peserta didik sebesar 91% dengan kategori sangat praktis dan angket respon guru sebesar 98 % dengan kategori sangat praktis. Tingkat keefektifan media diperoleh dari hasil pretest dan posttest peserta didik. Media pembelajaran ­­game “Science Mission” efektif digunakan dengan hasil presentase ketuntasan belajar sebesar 90%, serta peningkatan hasil belajar peserta didik melalui perhitungan N-Gain sebesar 0,54 dengan kategori sedang. Berdasarkan hasil data yang telah diperoleh, maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa media pembelajaran ­­game “Science Mission” berbasis android memiliki nilai kevalidan, kepraktisan dan keefektifitasan sehingga layak digunakan oleh peserta didik dalam pembelajaran IPA materi perubahan wujud benda kelas V Sekolah Dasar.

This development research was carried out because the insufficient use of media in learning process. This learning media development research about "Science Mission" game is aimed to determine the validity, practicality, and the effectiveness of "Science Mission" game in improving students learning outcomes in the objects form changing materials at 5th grade of Elementary School. The researcher used the Research and Development (R&D), the type of a research from Borg and Gall which has 10 stages. Nevertheless, the researcher simplified them into 7 stages of development according to the modification by Pratama et al., (2016). The instruments that were used in this development research include validation sheets, teacher and students response questionnaire, pretest and posttest. The subjects of this study were 10 of 5th graders from SDN Kebonsari at Lamongan Regency. The level of media validity obtained from the results of the validation test by material experts was 90% with a very valid category, and the validation test by media experts was about 86% with a very valid category. The level of media practicality obtained from the results of the student response questionnaire was 91% with very practical category and the teacher response questionnaire was about 98% with the very practical category. The media effectiveness was obtained from the results of the students' pretest and posttest. It shows that the "Science Mission" game as a learning medium was effectively used in the  mastery learning percentage of 90%, as well as improving students' learning outcomes through N-Gain calculations of 0.54 in the medium category. Based on the results of the data, it can be concluded that the android-based learning media of "Science Mission" game has the value of validity, practicality and effectiveness so that it is suitable to be used by the students in the science learning with objects form changing materials for 5th graders of Elementary School.
