Abstract

This study aims to determine the feasibility of teaching materials oriented critical thinking ability grade XI SMA developed. This research includes research and development with 3D development model (define, design and develop). The teaching materials developed were validated based on aspects of material feasibility, language and media by experts using validation sheets in accordance with BSNP standards and then the validated teachng materials were distributed to two teachers and grade XI students at Sultan Agung Private High School and SMAN 1 Pematangsiantar to find out the response of teachers and students using questionnaires. The results of the study found that expert validation of teaching materials developed has an average score of 4.17 in terms of content feasibility, 4.20 for the aspect of presentation feasibility, 4.33 for the linguistic aspect and 4.19 from the aspect of graphation. While students' response to critical thinking ability-oriented module teaching materials had average scores of 3.80 and 3.82 and teacher responses averaged a score of 4.27, judging by interest indicators, material indicators and language indicators. These results show that the critical thinking ability-oriented teaching materials developed have met valid and good criteria for use.Keywords: Teaching materials, Critical thinking skills, Chemical equilibrium, 3D models

Abstract

The aim of this research is to obtain Android-based chemical bond learning media using the smart apps creator program that is feasible and eligible to use. To achieve the goal, development research has been carried out which refers to the 4 D model with the stages define, design, develop and disseminate. The research was conducted at SMA Negeri 5 Medan involving teachers and students of class X MIA. The research instruments used are non-test instruments including needs analysis instruments, feasibility test instruments and student response instruments. The research results are: (1). An Android-based chemical bond learning media has been obtained using a smart apps creator program with features main view, main menu, learning material, evaluation, summary and references. (2). The Android-based chemical bond learning media obtained was deemed suitable for use in learning with a feasibility level of 85.0% with very worthy category. (3). The students give good eligibility responded (82.6%) for the Android-based chemical bond learning media obtained with meets the requirements for use as learning media.Keywords: Android based; Chemical bonding; Learning media; Smart apps creator program

Abstract

This research aims to compare the effectiveness of sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid catalysts in the esterification of frankincense cinnamic acid (STYRAX paraleoncomud PERK). Esterification of sulfuric acid catalyst is carried out with ethanol and for hydrochloric acid catalyst with methanol. Esterification was carried out by refluxing a mixture of 1:20 cinnamic acid - ethanol and methanol, with 3 mL of each catalyst at a temperature of 60oC for one hour. The results were rinsed with 3 x 50 mL distilled water and dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. The results were filtered and verified for functional groups using FTIR and composition analysis using GC – MS. The results of FTIR interpretation show a decrease in absorption intensity (-OH) at 3500 cm-1 as a functional group that reacts compared to the ester results as an indication of the ongoing esterification reaction. The resulting ethyl cinnamate has a high conversion of 84.42%. Methyl cinnamate also has a distinctive ester aroma but is clearer and based on GC-MS, the content of methyl cinnamate is relatively low, namely 34.40%, the remaining cinnamic acid is 37.28%, and various side products of 28.32%. Thus, the catalyst that provides better conversion is sulfuric acid, but it requires further purification by examining the appropriate absorbent and bleaching agent. The brown color of the ester product catalyzed by sulfuric acid is thought to occur due to the oxidation of the cinnamic acid double bond by the catalyst.
