THE QUALITY OF PRE-SERVICE PRIMARY TEACHER'S 21ST CENTURY SKILLS-BASED ETNO QUR'ANIC STEM E-MODULE THROUGH AN ALESSI AND TROLLIP MODEL

Abstract

Technological challenges in the era of Industrial Revolution 4.0 in the educational sector require higher human resources to prepare the competencies of the next generations and be able to follow the development of teaching materials that still consider regional culture by using technology. In facing these challenges, this study aims to generate the design of an Ethno Qur'anic STEM-based E-module as teaching materials in the concept of Science, which is able to integrate and interconnect Islamic values, local Acehnese wisdom, and technological science, which are appropriate and practical for prospective elementary school teachers so that they are able to compete in this 21st century. The type of this study was Research and development with Alessi and Trollip development model design. The development steps were: (1) planning; (2) design; and (3) development. Data analysis used the alpha test as a validity assessment, which showed the feasibility of e-module development, and the beta test as the assessment of e-module practicality. The results obtained based on the assessment of media, material, and Al-Quran experts showed that the Ethno Qur'anic STEM-based E-module is really feasible with a value of 86.63% and really practical with a value of 88.87% to be used by teachers in the learning process of the concept of Science in elementary school. This paper is expected to contribute positively to improving the quality of education for prospective elementary school teachers by developing a learning module that is innovative and relevant to the needs of the time.
