The development of E-Module based on science writing heuristic (SWH) to improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning activities

Abstract

The goal of this study is to create an e-module that utilizes the Science Writing Heuristic (SWH) and assess its feasibility and characteristics. This research follows the research and development (RnD) approach using the Thiagarajan 4D development model. Various methods were employed to collect data, including interviews, observation, questionnaires, and documentation. The e-module was developed in the form of digital Flipbooks, which present students with a step-by-step learning process based on the Science Writing Heuristic. The quality of the e-module was evaluated by expert validators and student feedback. The final product is an e-module based on the Science Writing Heuristic (SWH) in HTML five format. The e-module received high scores from material and media experts, with a score of 0.93 and 0.82 respectively. Student responses were also positive, indicating its potential as a valuable learning resource. Further testing is required to determine its effectiveness in larger classroom settings.
