Development of Science E-Modules Based on Local Potential to Improve Student’s Science Literacy

A person who is science literate is able to comprehend, apply science concepts and solve problems related to science. Learning that integrates science literacy can help students provide scientific explanations AND draw conclusions based on scientific evidence. Local potential integrated into science learning can help students connect scientific knowledge with the cultural context in everyday life. This study attempts to evaluate the validity, practicability, and effectiveness of local potential-based science E-Modules to enhance junior high school students' science literacy. This research uses the ADDIE development approach which comprises five stages analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The validators of this study consisted of 3 validation experts. The instruments used in this research include validation sheets, observation sheets, student response questionnaire sheets, test results sheets. The validity stage carried out by the validator includes 2 aspects, namely content validity and construct validity. The results obtained were (1) the percentage of validation test was 86.25% with a very valid category; (2) the percentage of practicability test was 90.1% with a very practical category; (3) the percentage of effectiveness test on pretest and posttest was 0.68 with a moderate category and the response of students reached 88.22% with a very positive category. Based on the results of data analysis obtained, the science E-Modules based on local potential developed is said to be very valid, very practical, and effective enough to improve students' science literacy so that it can be used in science learning.
