Development of E-Module Trizminds for Physical Contradiction Topic Using Thunkable Application for RBT Subject
Abstract
This study aims at the development of TrizMinds teaching aids using Thunkable software for the subtopic of Physical Contradictions in Design and Technology (RBT) Form 2. The main problem is divided into three aspects, namely the inappropriateness of “Chalk and Talk” teaching, the focus of 21st century learning that is studentcentered, and technology needs in education according to the Malaysian Education Development Plan. The objectives of the study include the development of an E-Module to identify learning needs based on the Thunkable application in Form 2 RBT. This study uses the design of the E-Module development with the ADDIE model, which involves analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation, as well as applying constructivism theory. Semi-structured interviews with three teachers who have taught for 3 years in RBT subjects at SMK Pendamaran Jaya to obtain information on the need for teaching aids to be produced. In connection with that, a second semi-structured interview was conducted with three experts, namely two experienced lecturers in the field of RBT who have served for 10 years and an RBT teacher who has served for 5 years as a validity assessor expert in providing comments on the built module. The results of the interview show that this TrizMinds Learning E-Module can help students understand the topic of physical contradiction for the subtopics of space separation and time separation. Therefore, various suggestions and improvements have been put forward to improve this application in order to achieve the educational goals of the School Transformation Program 2025 (TS25), which is part of the efforts of the Malaysian Ministry of Education towards improving the quality of students and schools in order to be in line with the current needs of education in the country.
