Development of Solar System Pop-Up Book Learning Media to Increase Students' Learning Motivation in Class VI B of SDN Jatisari

Abstract

This study was conducted with the aim of developing a Pop-Up Book learning medium on the Solar System for the lesson “Exploring the Universe,” determining the medium’s suitability, and assessing improvements in student motivation and learning outcomes after the medium was implemented in the classroom. The method used was Research and Development (R&D) based on the ADDIE model, which includes the stages of Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The study was conducted at Jatisari Public Elementary School with a sample of 9 students in the small-group pilot test and 27 students in the large-group pilot test. Data collection was carried out through observation, interviews, documentation, questionnaires, as well as pretest and posttest. Data analysis used quantitative descriptive techniques, validity and reliability tests, normality tests, paired sample t-tests, and N-Gain tests. The research results show that the Solar System Pop-Up Book media received a media expert validation score of 96% and a subject matter expert validation score of 89%, with an overall average of 92.5%, which falls into the “highly acceptable” category. The student questionnaire results yielded a score of 93%, teacher feedback was 97.3%, and student learning motivation was 93%, all falling into the “very good” category. Meanwhile, the N-Gain test results showed an average of 0.6884 in the small-scale trial and 0.6593 in the large-scale trial, falling into the moderate category. Based on these results, the Solar System Pop-Up Book medium is deemed suitable and sufficiently effective for use in IPAS learning because it is capable of helping to increase student motivation and learning outcomes through more engaging, active, and interactive learning activities.
