The Development of Electronic Teaching Module for Implementation of Project-Based Learning during the Pandemic

Abstract

The quality of learning must be continuously improved, even during the pandemic. The demand is that students can study well and improve their cognitive, affective, and psychomotor skills. During the COVID-19 pandemic, students are encouraged to learn online from home. Adapting this new habit challenges the teacher to design a project-based learning process appropriately. The purpose of this paper is to describe the development process of the electronic teaching module for students as project-based learning (PjBL) of steering, brakes, and suspension subjects in the Automotive Department, Engineering Faculty, Universitas Negeri Padang. Student modules are designed to improve cognitive, affective, and psychomotor abilities. This study describes the module arrangement and uses the RD method. To investigate the needs of the development process, a need analysis was also performed. In the module development process, conceptual module and content validity were assessed by experts. Furthermore, practicality, effectiveness, and t-test were applied. The results showed that the development improves students' cognitive, affective, and psychomotor abilities.
