PENGEMBANGAN MODUL BIOLOGI BERORIENTASI MIND MAP DILENGKAPI TEKA-TEKI SILANG UNTUK KELAS VII SEKOLAH MENENGAH PERTAMA

Abstract

The module is  media that make students learn independently so that it could be known how far  the learners master the learning material. The modules that is developed in this research oriented Mind Map is equipped by Crosswords for seventh grade of Junior High School. Merging MM with Crosswords in this module also aims to encourage the students to learn while playing, so that the presentation of material interested for the learners. The purpose of this research is to produce a biology  modules oriented Mind Map equipped by Crosswords for seventh grade of Junior High School and to known the validity, the practicalities, and the effectiveness of the module. Type of this research is research development with a procedural model. Module was developed by 4-D model (four-D models), which consists of 4 phases that is Define, Design, Develop and Disseminate. This study was conducted to stage dissiminate, but for dissiminate phases  can only be done on a limited class. Learning module test results showed that the average validity = 3.70 (very valid), the practicalities of teachers = 3.44 (practical) and learners = 3.52 (very practical). The test results demonstrate the effectiveness of the modules that students actively learn and has a high passing grade for each competency. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the biology modules oriented Mind Map equipped by Crosswords has developed a valid, practical, and effective used for seventh grade of Junior High School.
