| Popis: | This study is development research aimed to develop a character-based Science Encyclopaedia to improve the concepts understanding in students. The product validation was conducted by media expert, material expert, learning expert, students, and teachers. Data were gathered using questionnaires, interviews, and tests. Then the data were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The validation results of media expert showed that the product is in the “good” category (79.80%), the material expert gave a “very good” category (98.87%), and the learning expert gave a “very good” category (86.90%). The total score of 2 teachers is “good” category (79.73%), while 60 students response is a “good” category (85.64%). The effect of this encyclopedia was measured by comparing the mean of the pre and post-test. The mean of posttest score (78.92) is higher than the one of pretest score (64.05). From the t-test, the encyclopedia has the significant effect on the students’ conceptual understanding. It means the Science Encyclopedia can improve students’ understanding significantly. The gain score of the student achievement using the Science Encyclopaedia based on characters of curiosity and reading interest influence significantly to the students’ literacy and concepts understanding in science learning. |
