Abstract

This Research and Development aims to produce PBL-based mobile learning (Problem Based Learning) material for heredity in humans that is valid, practical, and effective by digital literacy practice to enhance students^ cognitive learning outcomes. The development model is based on Lee & Owens with four stages, namely analysis, design, implementation, and evaluation. Product validity is validated by material experts, media experts, and learning experts. The practicality of the product was assessed from biology education practitioners and student responses. The effectiveness of the product is assessed from the implementation to students with a pre-experimental design. Data were collected using validation sheets for validity testing, practicality sheets for biology education practitioners, student response questionnaires, worksheets, pretest and posttest. The results of the validation test by material experts, media experts, and learning experts are 100%, 100%, and 98.96%, respectively. The results of the practicality test by education practitioners showed 97.86%, while the results of student responses through one-to-one trials, small group trials, field trials, and conduct pilot tests were 92%, 92.6%, 90.9%, and 90.5%. By practicing digital literacy up to 81%, students^ cognitive learning outcomes as a result of the effectiveness test increase up to 62%. The results of the paired t-test showed a significance result of 000<0.05 so that there was a difference between the pretest and posttest data. Based on the results of the study, it was concluded that the mobile learning developed was very valid, practical, and effective by digital literacy practice so as to enhance students^ cognitive learning outcomes. This media deserves to be used as an alternative media in biology learning.
