Abstract

This research was conducted due to the unavailability of the physics module containing the local wisdom as well as a lack of comprehension to students on the cultural diversity in South Kalimantan. Therefore, this study aimed at producing the physics module based on the local wisdom of Hulu Sungai Tengah (HST) Regency in South Kalimantan province which was feasible on the basis of validity, practicality, the effectiveness of the physics module and the achievement of murakata character. This study was a research and development using the ADDIE model. The subjects of the study were 30 students of XI MIA class at one of the high schools in Barabai, HST regency. The instruments used were a module validation sheet, a questionnaire, an achievement test and a student characteristic observation sheet. The results showed that the validity of the module was categorized as highly valid, the practicality of the module was categorized as practical, and the effectiveness of the module was categorized as high, and the attainment of murakata character was categorized as good. It could be concluded that the physics module based on the local wisdom of HST regency to train murakata character is feasible to use in the teaching and learning.
