Abstract :

STEAM-based learning modules are a phenomenon as a medium for developing critical thinking skills in learning Science of Nature and Social Sciences (IPAS) in elementary schools (SD). The purpose of this study was to describe the feasibility of developing STEAM-based IPAS learning modules as a medium for developing critical thinking skills. The type of research is Research and Development (R&D). Data were collected through expert validation questionnaires and tests. The results showed that the validation scores for all experts were greater than 0.80, meaning that the IPAS learning module was valid for data collection; Student response questionnaire> 80%, meaning that the readability of the IPAS learning module has good criteria; Increased average learning outcomes of 33.41 and a decrease in standard deviation of 3.646; The results of hypothesis testing obtained data calculated significance value (0.000) <0.05 or absolute t count (23. The conclusion of the research is that the STEAM-based IPAS learning module can be interpreted as feasible to be used as learning media in developing critical thinking skills, because it has fulfilled the validity aspects, practicality aspects, and effectiveness aspects.
