Development of MONDAE (Monopoli Daerah) Learning Media for Ethnic and Cultural Diversity Material for Grade IV Elementary School

Abstract

This research is motivated by the low learning outcomes of students on the material of ethnic and cultural diversity caused by the absence of learning media used to help students understand the material. The purpose of this study is to determine the level of validity, practicality, and effectiveness of the MONDAE (Monopoli Daerah) learning media to improve student learning outcomes. The method used in this study is Research and Development (R&D) with the ADDIE model which contains 5 stages, namely Analyse, Design, Development, Implementation, and evaluation. The research subjects included 27 fourth-grade students of SDN Tiron 4. Data collection was carried out using observation, interview, questionnaire, and test techniques. The results showed that the MONDAE (Monopoli Daerah) learning media was very valid for use with a validation percentage of 76% from material experts with the category “valid”, and 94% from media experts with the category “very valid”. The practicality of the learning media obtained a percentage of 98% in the teacher response questionnaire with the category “very practical” and 96% in the student response questionnaire with the category “very practical”. Students get an N-Gain value of 0.6250 or 62.50%, an average learning outcome of 85.75 and a classical learning completion percentage of 95% after using the MONDAE (Monopoli Daerah) learning media with the category of “very effective”. The results of this study prove that the MONDAE learning media is very valid, very practical, and very effective in improving student learning outcomes on the material of ethnic and cultural diversity.
