Developing Physics E-Module Using “Construct 2” to Support Students' Independent Learning Skills

Abstract

This research is an e-module development that aims to support students' learning independence. One of the causes of the students' low learning independence is the lack of teaching materials that can support the students' learning independence. The use of teaching materials and monotonous methods make students lazy and bored in learning so that it impacts the independence of learning. Research and development method of plomp models used in this study which consists of a preliminary research stage (Preliminary Research), the design phase or prototype (Development of Prototype phase), and the assessment phase. The research This research was conducted at a high school in the city of Padang class XI IPA. The validity test was given to 2 material expert lecturers, 2 media expert lecturers, and 1 linguist lecturer, and tested by 2 educators and 15 students for practicality, and 20 students for effectiveness. The results of this study are said to be very valid with a value of 90.66, very practical with a value of 94.5, and very effective with a value of 89.2. Based on data acquisition, it appears that the E-Module physics uses “Construct 2” to support the learning independence of students categorized as very valid, very practical, and very effective in learning physics.
