Abstract

Abstract

Based on observations made by researchers in the learning process, teachers in schools still use guidebooks without creating new things/digital teaching materials with a STEM approach. One effort that can be made is to implement the use of digital teaching materials that can support student knowledge, discipline, responsibilities and learning activities. This research aims to see the effectiveness of using STEM-integrated digital teaching materials carried out at the Kajhu Aceh Besar State Elementary School by implementing the effectiveness of using digital-based teaching materials by assessing three aspects, namely discipline, responsibility and activities in learning. The results of research using quantitative methods show that the effectiveness of using digital-based materials integrated with STEM by assessing 3 aspects, namely discipline, responsibility and activities in learning through observation questionnaires with an average comparison value between before applying digital teaching materials, received an average score of 57. % and after using STEM integrated digital teaching materials, they got an average score (91%) which is a very good criterion, it is clear that the percentage increase was 28% compared between the two, the use of these teaching materials supports students' effectiveness in learning. Thus, it can be concluded that the effectiveness of using integrated digital STEM-based thematic teaching materials supports the learning process in a more positive direction at the Kajhu Aceh Besar State Elementary School.
