Pengembangan Website Chatbot Berbasis Discovery Learning Pada Materi Suhu dan Kalor untuk Pembelajaran Fisika SMA

Abstract

Physics learning on the topic of temperature and heat is a difficult subject for senior high school students to understand and often leads to misconceptions. To overcome this issue, a learning strategy is needed that involves active student participation, facilitates conceptual understanding, and provides meaningful, technology-based learning experiences. This study aims to develop a Discovery Learning-based chatbot website on temperature and heat topics that is valid and practical for use in physics learning. The research method employed is Research and Development (R&D) using the ADDIE Development model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). Product validity was tested through validity assessments by two expert lecturers in Physics Education from the Universitas Negeri Jakarta and one Physics teacher from a public senior high school in Jakarta as validators. Practicality was measured through user trials using student response questionnaires. The trial subjects in this study involved 31 grade XI students at a public senior high school in Jakarta. The data Analysis technique used was quantitative descriptive Analysis to determine the percentage of validity and practicality scores. The results of this study indicated that the product’s validity achieved a percentage of 93%, categorized as ‘highly valid’ across the aspects of content, media, and learning/language. The practicality test by students also reached a percentage of 93%, categorized as ‘highly practical’ in terms of display, content, and usefulness. This study is limited to testing the validity and practicality of the media and has not yet tested its effectiveness in improving students’conceptual understanding or learning outcomes. Based on these results, the Discovery Learning-based chatbot website on temperature and heat topics is declared valid and practical for use in senior high school physics learning.
