Abstract

Contextual chemistry resources can connect familiar cultural practices with representations of chemical bonding, but product appraisal alone cannot demonstrate learning benefits. This design-and-development study produced a Grade 10 chemistry magazine linking ionic and covalent bonding with Samarinda woven-sarong practices and obtained preliminary expert appraisals. The study implemented the define, design, and develop stages of an adapted 4-D model. The needs assessment drew on responses from 200 students and input from teachers; two subject-matter specialists, two media specialists, and two chemistry teachers appraised the prototype. The magazine contains concept maps, illustrated explanations, culturally contextualized prompts, questions, reflection activities, and optional QR-linked videos. The documented prototype and dimension-level appraisals provide a preliminary basis for refinement, although the reported aggregate needs and validation percentages still require reconciliation with original scoring records. The contribution is a context-specific instructional-design proposition, not evidence of improved chemical literacy or effective digital learning. Further research should verify the scientific representations and reported scores and examine student usability, use of linked resources, and learning outcomes.

Abstrak

Bahan ajar kimia kontekstual dapat menghubungkan praktik budaya yang dikenal siswa dengan representasi ikatan kimia, tetapi penilaian produk belum membuktikan manfaat pembelajaran. Penelitian pengembangan ini menyusun majalah kimia kelas X yang mengaitkan ikatan ion dan kovalen dengan praktik Sarung Tenun Samarinda serta memperoleh penilaian awal ahli. Model 4-D diadaptasi melalui tahap define, design, dan develop. Analisis kebutuhan melibatkan 200 siswa dan masukan guru, sedangkan prototipe dinilai oleh dua ahli materi, dua ahli media, dan dua guru kimia. Majalah memuat peta konsep, penjelasan berilustrasi, contoh budaya, pertanyaan, kegiatan refleksi, dan video tambahan berkode QR. Produk dan penilaian per aspek telah didokumentasikan, tetapi angka ringkasan kebutuhan serta validasi masih memerlukan pencocokan dengan lembar skor asli. Kontribusi penelitian berupa rancangan pembelajaran kontekstual yang belum diuji efektivitasnya terhadap literasi kimia maupun penggunaan sumber digital. Penelitian lanjutan perlu memverifikasi ketepatan konsep, perhitungan skor, kepraktisan bagi siswa, pemanfaatan video, dan hasil belajar.
