Implementation of an Interactive E-Module to Improve Concept Understanding of Students

Background of this study is based on the information obtained that the students still experience difficulty in understanding the concept of redox material. Additionally, from the interview results, the teachers in learning processes used handbooks and had used PowerPoint (PPT), yet the handbooks and PowerPoint are considered less able to assist in explaining abstract chemical concepts. This study aimed at discovering the influence of interactive emodule implementation using kvisoft flipbook maker application to improve the students’ conceptual understanding of the redox material of 10th grade. The design of the study used was pre-experimental using a pretest-posttest design which engaged one class as the experimental class. The sampling technique used purposive sampling that obtained one sample class namely 10th class MIA 5 of Madrasah Aliyah Negeri (MAN) 2 Pekanbaru. The data analysis results of study using Wilcoxon test showed the Z score of -4,792 with the p-value (asymp. Sig 2 tailed) of 0,000; thus, the hypothesis decision taken is that the Ha is accepted. The conclusion is that there is a significant increase or improvement in the implementation of interactive e-module using the kvisoft flipbook maker on redox material to the students’ conceptual understanding of 10th grad at MAN 2 Pekanbaru.
