ABSTRACT

A set of standard learning material can be used to improve the quality of
education. The aim of this study was to develop a set of good quality teaching
module through innovation into Senior High School Students (SHS) Chemistry
materials. The research carried out in three school in Medan ( MAN 1 Medan,
SMA S Al-Azhar and SMA S Al –Ulum) academic year 2012/2013. The
developed chemistry module by the combination of printed material and
electronic media was able to help students to meet their competency as required
by national curriculum . The innovated chemistry module by the combination of
printed material and electronic media motivated students to study. The result
showed that Average of student’s achievement in experiment class (HG) is (M=81
± 6.7) low group (LG) in experiment class (M=73.83± 8.36) while in control class
for high group (66.5 ± 9.47) and low group (66.5 ± 9.47). It means that the
student’s achievement in experimental class either high group (HG) or low group
(LG) is higher than (HG) or low group (LG) in control class and there was
positive correlation between students’ motivation (r2= 0.771) in learning
chemistry.

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
1.1. Background
Development of teaching materials or modules becomes an urgent need as a
consequence of the implementation of the education level curriculum unit
(Mulyasa, 2009). The Approach of competencies requires the use of module in the
implementation of learning. The main driving force behind the introduction of
modules in teaching learning process lies in the fact that they have roles that can
help to solve key educational problems, as we know that each pupil as an
individual with his own special aptitude and interest, goal of helping each student
to think for himself and allowing the individuality to each learner. Learning
module can promote the effective learning because it is extremely flexible in
implementation. The development of innovative learning modules are needed in
improving student’s motivation and learning outcomes, especially to make
learning more interesting and make the students can be independent in learning.
Teachers often have less stock to enhance learning in the classroom, making
learning seem boring. Teaching materials that have been used less attract students
to learn. Educational experience that is often encountered in school, many
students consider difficult to learn chemistry. This may be caused by a lack of
interesting teaching materials, make the students become boring and difficult to
understand so that students did not master the chemistry concepts. In addition to
presenting the material chemistry, a teacher should also be able to develop
learning materials in order to provide an optimum learning outcomes because the
teacher know about the student’s need. It's long been known that the module is
one of the most effective teaching materials used in the learning process. To
improve student learning outcomes will require the development of innovative
learning modules that can be used to improve students' ability to learn easily and
efficiently in the learning process.

2

Innovation in education is often associated with the renewal that comes
from the creative thinking, containing findings and modification ideas and
methods used to overcome a problem of education, while the module is the
smallest unit of learning programs that can be learned by the students as
individuals (self instructional), after participants completed one unit in the
module, then the participant can move forward and study the next module unit
(Prastowo, 2011). The module is compiled teaching materials that include
systematic and interesting content, methods and evaluation. In order for the
development of innovative learning modules successfully as expected then a few
things to consider: analysis of needs, development of module design,
implementation, assessment, evaluation, validation and quality modules
assurance.
Actually, in delivery material, teacher often use the conventional method
in teaching. Redox reaction is one of the materials in grade X that include
development of oxidation reduction concept, oxidation number of elements in
compounds or ions, oxidizing and reducing agents, autoredox reaction,
nomenclature redox compounds and applications in solving environmental
problems. Often educators simply convey concepts that are memorized by using
textbooks with the language that is hard to understand. This condition makes the
students lazy to read a book or repeat lessons at home so the impact on student
learning outcomes are low. To overcome this, the best strategy is needed to
improve student learning outcomes. One way is to use the innovated learning
module. According to (Hand, L., Knowles, V., Pybus, L., Scivier, J. & Simpson,
S. 2000) modules designed to develop students’ skills and attributes as
independent learners and critical thinkers.
Various studies have been conducted regarding the effectiveness of the use
of the module as a teaching material. The results of previous studies states that
learning module or modular teaching is more effective as teaching learning
process as compared to traditional teaching method (Ali, R.et all 2010). Because
in modular teaching the students are provided the opportunities of learning at their
own pace, according to their ability level and needs. In addition, research

3

conducted by Dameita Sumbayak in her research entitled The Development of
Chemistry Learning Module To Increase Student's Achievement On The Teaching
and Learning of Oxidation and Reduction Reaction also prove that the use of
learning modules to improve student learning outcomes.
However, as noted above is necessary to develop innovative learning
modules. Development of innovative learning modules in this research is to
innovated learning modules by combining printed materials and electronic media
to help students understand the concepts or chemical competence. Development
of innovative learning modules will produce an interesting way of learning to
make students easy to learn and can guide students to achieve the competencies
expected. With the use of innovative learning modules students can learn to be
more independent and not rely entirely on the presence of the teacher (teacher
centered), because of the learning modules are self instructional.
Based on this background the researcher is interested in conducting
research entitled: The Development of Innovated Learning Module to increase
student’s achievement on the Teaching of Redox Reaction For Senior High
School Students.

1.2.

Problem Identification
Based on this background, it can be identified the following issues.
