DEVELOPMENT INTERACTIVE ANIMATION VIDEO FOR TEACHING THE HUMAN RESPIRATORY SYSTEM IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS

Abstract

The use of limited and monotonous learning media can reduce students’ motivation to learn, while inappropriate media utilization may also affect learning outcomes. This challenge is more prominent in subjects that cannot be directly observed, such as the human respiratory organs. This study aims to develop an interactive animation video introducing the human respiratory system for fifth-grade elementary students. Furthermore, the media was tested to determine its validity and feasibility as an IPAS learning resource. The development process followed the ADDIE model, employing both qualitative and quantitative approaches. Expert validation results show that the media achieved a score of 93% from material experts and 95% from media experts, both categorized as “Highly Valid,” with an overall validity rate of 94%. Feasibility testing on a limited scale yielded an average response of 98% from students and 95% from teachers, classified as “Highly Feasible.” In a wider-scale trial, students’ responses averaged 93%, while teachers’ responses reached 97%, maintaining the “Highly Feasible” category. Overall, the combined feasibility score from teachers and students across both trials was 95%. These findings indicate that the interactive animation video is both highly valid and highly feasible for use in IPAS learning for fifth-grade students.
