Development of Interactive Mathematics E-Modules to Improve Elementary School Students' Learning Outcomes and Critical Thinking Skills

Source abstract

The study's background stems from the low mathematics learning outcomes and critical thinking skills of students, which are a result of limited supporting learning media. Therefore, this study intends to develop an interactive mathematics e-module aimed at improving learning outcomes and critical thinking skills of fifth-grade elementary school students on spatial geometry material. The research method used is the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) development model. We conducted this research in class V of Kyai Ibrahim Elementary School. The results of the study indicate that the interactive e-module developed is very feasible, with media expert validation of 95.3%, material expert validation of 91.7%, and learning device expert validation of 89%. The practicality of this e-module is supported by the results of teacher responses of 96% and student responses of 93%, which are categorized as very practical. The product's effectiveness is shown by the fact that 89% of students completed their learning in large classes during the implementation stage, and there was an improvement in learning results and critical thinking skills, with an N-Gain value of 0.72 (72.09%). Student activity during implementation also increased, with 89% categorized as very active. Thus, this interactive e-module has proven effective in improving learning outcomes and critical thinking skills among fifth-grade elementary school students.
