PENGEMBANGAN MEDIA KOMIK IPA TERPADU TEMA PENCEMARAN AIR SEBAGAI MEDIA PEMBELAJARAN UNTUK SISWA SMP KELAS VII

Abstrak Penelitian bertujuan untuk mendiskripsikan kelayakan media komik IPA terpadu tema pencemaran air yang dikembangkan berdasarkan kelayakan teoritis yaitu hasil validasi Dosen dan Guru IPA, dan berdasarkan kelayakan empiris yaitu respon siswa. Rancangan penelitian ini menggunakan model 4-D (4-D models) yang terdiri dari 4 tahap yaitu: pendefinisian (Define), perancangan (Design), pengembangan (Develop), dan penyebaran (Disseminate). Namun penelitian ini dibatasi sampai pada tahap pengembangan (Develop). Tahap define didapat bahwa SMP Negeri 1 Babat menggunakan kurikulum KTSP, namun dalam implementasinya belum mengajarkan IPA secara terpadu. Tahap design menghasilkan desain awal komik dan draf 1.

Abstract The research purposed to get the feasibility of the development of educational comic integrated science media with theme water pollution’s which feasible based on theoretical validation result from Univercity level instructors and Mathematical and natural sciences’s Teachers and based on empirical student response. Plan of this research using 4-D models which are consist of 4 stage’s included Define, Design, Develop and Disseminate. But this research is just pointed on develop stage. On define’s stage is found that SMP N I Babat using KTSP curriculum but it’s implementation has not been tough science lesson in integrated manner. Design’s stages produces a designing first comic media and draft 1. Develop’s satges acquired suggestions for improvement of the draft 1 to draft 2. And then comic media which developed valuated by 2 Univercity level instructors of Mathematical and science’s faculty Of Surabaya State University and 2 Mathematical and natural sciences’s Teacher of junior high school, and students of junior high school and tried limited on 15 junior high school students of SMP N I Babat grade VII. To collecting data, the method which is used are questionnaire and data analysis method. Result of this research shows that Development Of Educational Comic Media Integrated Science With Theme Water Pollution For Junior High School Class VII were developed feasible to be used.
