Chem-Rox Games As A Learning Media For The Concept of Reduction and Oxidation Reactions Material to Increase Students Learning Motivation

Abstract

The development of technology can be used to improve the quality of learning, for example the use of computers as learning media. This study aims to measure the effectiveness of Chem-Rox games as learning media for the concept of redoxà in terms of learning outcomes and student motivation. This study used one group pretest posttest design method. The subjects in the study were conducted on class X students of MA Al-Arifin Probolinggo. Before learning was carried out pretest and after learning was given posttest. The results of the data obtained were analyzed quantitatively. The results of this study indicate that the n-gain obtained is 0.71-1 in the high category and the t test is obtained by the tvalue of 11.266 > ttable 2.093 and the increase in students learning motivation as seen from the tvalue 21.838 > ttable 2.093. From these data it can be stated that there is a significant difference between the average learning motivation of students before and after learning using the Chem-Rox game. Thus can be concluded that the Chem-Rox game is effectively used as a learning media based on increasing learning outcomes and increasing learning motivation of students on the concept of redox material.
