Investigating the Need for the Development of Mathematics Physics E-Modules for Students

Abstract

This research is motivated by the difficulties of students in studying Mathematics Physics II with fourier series material because the main source books used are all in English. Students also admitted that the difficulty in studying Mathematics Physics II was due to the lack of variety of examples. In addition, it is also known that the development of e-modules for the Physics Mathematics II course has never been done before. Therefore, the researchers conducted this investigation with the aim of knowing how much students need for the development of e-modules for the Fourier series material in the Mathematics Physics II course. The method used in this study is a mixed method (mixed method). Data was collected using a questionnaire sheet and student interviews. The data obtained in the form of quantitative data and qualitative data. Quantitative data was analyzed by descriptive statistical analysis test, while qualitative data was analyzed using the Miles & Huberman approach. Through the results of this study, it was found that most of the students expressed their need for the development of the e-module in Mathematics Physics II for fourier series material. The novelty of this study is that the material used is Fourier series material which has never been studied by previous research.   Key words: Education, E-module, Investigation, Mathematics, Physics
