Infographic instructional media as a solution and innovation in physics learning for senior high school students in Indonesia

Abstract

This research is aimed to find out the usability of infographic as an instructional media in Physics learning among high school students. This research is the third phase (evaluation phase) of the Design and Development Research Approach introduced by Richey and Klein. Chai & Chen Evaluation Model was used in order to evaluate the usability of infographic. There are six students were selected for the research using purposive sampling. The data are obtained by in-depth interview method in the form of semi-structured interviews and analyzed by Miles and Huberman Qualitative Data Analysis Model. This research used open code to simplify the process of data analysis. The findings show that the use of infographic is very helpful and useful for students to understand the Physics concept of rectilinear motions kinematics. Finally, from the perspective of students as infographic instructional media users, it can be concluded that the infographic is an effective solution to Physics learning due to it is more flexible, stimulates learning, and students can develop their own concepts that solve Physics learning problems. In addition, the infographic is an innovation in practicing Physics, as it is a new media in education especially in Physics learning.
