The Development of Digital Technology Application Manual for Science Project-based Learning to the STEM Education Approach

Abstract

This  research  aims  to:  1). development of digital technology application manual for science project-based learning to the STEM education approach 2) ask expert opinions on the appropriateness of the digital technology application manual for science project-based learning to the STEM education approach 3) trial digital technology application manual for science project-based learning to the STEM education approach. The target audience  consists of nine experts who have experience in digital technology application manual and the second group, 25 high school students who are members of the Science Club who choose to study in the field of minor inventors. The tools used in this study were a knowledge test observational form of learning behavior of learners desirable character behavior team work science project assessment form a questionnaire on student satisfaction with activities and manuals a satisfaction questionnaire for speakers and mentors, a form for assessing the appropriateness of the event process and the assessment form of the manual. The statistics used are as follows: percentage, average and standard deviation.

          The results of this research were as follows: 1) Activity manual for speakers, mentors and learners, (1) Activity guide for speakers and mentors There are 3 parts in total as follows: Part 1 Introduction: presents the importance of applying digital technology. manual details Activities measurement and evaluation and learning management plans. Part 2 contents show information on 6 learning contents, knowledge sheets and activity sheets. learner There are 2 parts in total as follows: Part 1: Introduction: Shows important information about the application of digital technology. manual details Activities measurement and evaluation And the learning management plan and part 2, the content shows information showing the content of learning 6 units, knowledge sheets and activity sheets. 2) Experts have  commented on the suitability of the digital technology application manual for science project-based learning to the STEM education approach. At  the highest level. 3) The result of the activity guide trial showed that the learners had scores after the activity. higher than before the activity at the level of statistical significance The learners' learning outcomes according to the STEM education approach from the overall average activity sheet were at a high level. Teamwork evaluation results of learners were at the highest level. The result of the assessment of the student's behavior was between 90.00 - 100.00. The assessment of the science project was at a high level. student satisfaction The speakers and mentors who applied digital technology activities to support the development of STEM-based science projects were at the highest level.
