ANALYSIS OF LEARNING MEDIA NEEDS FOR CHEMISTRY ON HYDROCARBON MATERIAL

Abstract

The rapid development of chemistry requires an effective learning strategy, especially for hydrocarbon material, which is often a challenge for students. This study aims to analyze the needs of chemistry learning media on hydrocarbon material in the form of educational game cards integrated with elaborative thinking. The main focus of the research is to explore the views of chemistry teachers regarding the use of educational game cards and the application of elaborative thinking in learning. This study used an exploratory survey method with a qualitative approach involving 5 chemistry teachers at various schools in Yogyakarta. Data were collected using a semi-open questionnaire consisting of 16 questions covering aspects of understanding, application, constraints, and participants' responses to the development of educational game cards integrated with elaborative thinking. The results showed that the participants gave positive responses to the educational game cards to be developed. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that participants agreed to the development of chemistry learning media in the form of educational game cards and gave suggestions that the cards be made comprehensively using relaxed and simple language.

ABSTRAK

Perkembangan ilmu kimia yang pesat memerlukan strategi pembelajaran yang efektif, terutama pada materi hidrokarbon yang kerap menjadi tantangan bagi peserta didik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kebutuhan media pembelajaran kimia pada materi hidrokarbon berupa kartu permainan edukatif terintegrasi elaborative thinking. Fokus utama penelitian adalah menggali pandangan guru kimia mengenai penggunaan kartu permainan edukatif dan penerapan elaborative thinking dalam pembelajaran. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode survei eksploratif dengan pendekatan kualitatif yang melibatkan 5 guru kimia pada berbagai sekolah di Yogyakarta. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan angket semi-terbuka yang terdiri dari 16 pertanyaan yang mencakup aspek pemahaman, penerapan, kendala, serta tanggapan partisipan terhadap pengembangan kartu permainan edukatif terintegrasi elaborative thinking. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa partisipan memberikan tanggapan positif terhadap kartu permainan edukatif yang akan dikembangkan. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa partisipan setuju terhadap adanya pengembangan media pembelajaran kimia materi hidrokarbon berupa kartu permainan edukatif dan memberikan saran agar kartu dibuat secara komprehensif dengan menggunakan bahasa yang santai dan sederhana.
