Practicality of pamplet learning media for Arecaceae family

Abstract

This android-based learning media which we call the pamplet media (short for Palmae Plant Ethnobotany) is a means to convey palm plant ethnobotany material. The purpose of this research was to produce a practical pamplet media. The palm plants used as learning materials were those found in the Tabanio Forest, Tanah Laut Regency. Three subjects tested the readability with a test instrument in the form of a questionnaire consisting of 18 indicators. For implementation, five observers tested after observing the activities of five subjects with a ten-indicator-questionnaire in order to obtain the implementation of expectations. They did the same to the activities of ten subjects so that the actual implementation was obtained. Student responses were revealed through a ten-indicator questionnaire by five subjects to obtain an expected response and by ten subjects to obtain an actual response. The assessments were carried out with a score which were then converted to a value (%). From the results of the readability test and also the results of the implementation test which were categorized as Very Good and the results of the student responses who Strongly Agree, this pamplet media is quite practical to use, especially for learning the ethnobotany of Arecaceae plants.
