Validity and Acceptability of the Developed Supplementary Learning Module in Organic Chemistry

Abstract: This paper highlights the acceptability of a supplementary module developed for Organic Chemistry Education. The development of the module is relevant to the Theory of Constructivism, where students can learn new ideas based on their prior knowledge and experiences gained during discussions. The module was developed using the Successive Approximation Model (SAM). This utilizes the iterative process–the module was first validated by experts and revised before it was distributed to the students for use. This process ensures a well-designed module to aid in the learning needs of the students. The validation of the module, as evaluated by experts, revealed a high overall mean (4.53) and content validity index (CVI) (0.92). This denotes a valid learning module to aid the learning difficulty of students in the subject. Meanwhile, students assessed the acceptability of the developed learning module. The results (overall mean = 4.294) revealed “High Acceptability” of the developed learning module. This indicates that the module demonstrates potential as an effective instructional tool among students enrolled in Organic Chemistry classes. However, students noted areas needing improvement, such as the addition of more examples, illustrations, and learning activities. Keywords: successive approximation model, supplementary module, student acceptability, instructional material.
