Dual mode module as new innovation in learning chemistry: project based learning oriented

Abstract

Chemical representation is differentiator of chemistry to branches of science. This skill must be emphasized in learning chemistry to make students mastering chemistry deeply. Instead of chemical representation, science process skills are also crucial skill in learning chemistry. Unfortunately, the preliminary study found that this COVID19 situation inhibits teachers to encourage these skills because of the limitation learning media had. Thus, it needed learning media that could be used when online learning, and face-to-face learning, and also emphasized chemical representation, and science process skills. This study aimed to develop valid module integrated chemical representation and science process skills, and can be used in face-to-face learning and online learning (dual mode module) and to investigate teachers' response about module. The research design used was ADDIE, data collected by using online validation form that was given to 6 validators. To investigate chemistry teachers' responses to module, online questionnaire given to teachers and it was further analyzed using percentage and compare to criteria of validity and criteria of response user. The result showed that module is valid with suitability content (90.7%), potential effectiveness (92%), and overall satisfaction (92.5%). The overall chemistry teachers' responses showed that this module was very good criteria (92.36%). Hopefully dual mode module would be used in learning chemistry in many situations, and further could improve students' chemical representation and science process skills.
