The Development of E-Book on Flood Mitigation to Increase Students’ Metacognitive Skill
The aims of this study were to analyse the flood mitigation in the Musi Sub Watershed of Ujan Mas Kepahiang Sub-District and to describe the design, characteristic and feasibility of the physics e-book on integrated fluid material of developed disaster mitigation. In addition, the results of the e-book application of the integrated physics material on flood disaster mitigation are analysed in improving students’ HOTS on the dimension of metacognitive knowledge. This study applies a 4-D development model consisting of four stages which are Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate. The analysis results of observations of flood-affected areas using a spatial zoning approach based on elevation, distance from the river, topography of the area, and the use of GIS applications are used to create flood-prone maps. The results of the flood mitigation study are used to design the contents of the fluid physics e-book. Characteristics of developed e-book include missions, competencies, basic theories, basic activities, material resources, and assessment characters. The sample used as a trial for implementing the e-book was the students at SMK 1 Rejang Lebong and selected by using the Purposive Sampling Technique. According to the expert validation, the e-book is highly feasible to be applied as teacher's teaching material with an average percentage score of 95.86%. Students’ HOTS ability on the metacognitive dimension of classical knowledge is 6.67% very good; 26.66% good; 46.67% adequate; 13.33% less; and 6.67% very less. The e-book of integrated fluid on mitigation flood for Class X SMA/MAK in the concentration subject of Technology and Engineering was able to improve students' metacognitive abilities with an N gain value of 0.65 (moderate).
