The Validity of the Development of Project-Based Oriented Learning Modules on Evolution and Biotechnology Materials for High School

Abstract

Based on the analysis of data collected through observation and interview activities to biology teachers and some learners. Found that there are still less educated learners biology books, display and presentation of textbook material less interesting, teaching materials used not fully assist in learners in understand the material, the unavailability of teaching materials that help learners in building their own knowledge, forming the character and skills independently, then learning unavailability of teaching materials that facilitate learners in doing the work and making a project. To overcome this problem, then developed biology learning module oriented on project based learning (project based learning). The purpose of this research is to reconstruct valid biology learning modules. This type of research is development research using Plomp model. The development phase of the Plomp model consists of 3 stages, namely 1) preliminary research stage, 2) development stage or prototyping, and 3) assessment stage. The results showed that the learning-based project learning module on evolution and biotechnology materials for SMA was declared very valid. Then proceed with the stage of practicality and effectiveness.
