Development of Pterydophyte Herbarium Encyclopedia Integrated Augmented Reality to Improve Undergraduate Student’s Biodiversity Literacy

Abstract

This research is a research and development design utilized Lee & Owens model (2004) to produce a valid, practical, and feasible pterydophyta herbarium encyclopedia integrated augmented reality. The stages of this research and development consist of analysis which includes needs analysis and front-end analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation. The data collection instruments included interviews, field observation, media and material validity expert questionnaire, student's readability questionnaire, and biodiversity literacy test. The subjects of the limited trial consisted of 28 undergraduate students in the Department of Biology, FMIPA, State University of Malang. The trial design uses a one group pretest posttest design. The Pterydophyte encyclopedia integrated augemented reality as learning resources categorized very feasible based on the result by media expert 100% categorized as very valid, material expert 85.1% categorized as valid, and student 91. 3% categorized as very feasible. Product effectivity is based on N-Gain score with value 0.58, it means that the score in class trial was effective. The paired sample t test shows that the significant value is 0.000. It shows that the significance value is less than 0.05, so there is a significant effect in improving undergraduate students's biodiversity literacy.
