DEVELOPMENT OF ANDROID BASED INTERACTIVE LEARNING MEDIA WITH INSPRING SUITE 10 IN SIENCE LEARNING

Abstract

The background of this study is the low interest and learning outcomes of students regarding material classification, caused by the use of conventional teaching methods that are less engaging This study aims to develop Android-based interactive learning media using iSpring Suite 10 in the context of learning Natural Sciences (IPA) for grade VII junior high school students. The research method employed is Research and Development (R&D) with a focus on creating media that meets the criteria of validity and practicality. Validation results from material experts showed an average validity score of 9.5 percent , while media experts provided a score of 90.38 percent , indicating that the developed media is very valid. Product trials demonstrated that this learning media is practical to use, achieving a practicality level of 8 9 percent . The Android-based application is designed to enhance student interaction in the learning process, allowing for independent and flexible learning. This research is anticipated to improve the effectiveness of science learning and contribute to educational innovation, particularly in addressing the issue of low interest in learning about material classification. Consequently, the developed Android-based interactive learning media can serve as an engaging and effective alternative for use in science education at schools.
