Needs Analysis Of Infographic Media Using Technology for Learning Physics

Abstract

In general, students still have problems in learning Physics, especially on the concept of kinematics of rectilinear motions. One way for students to easily understand the concept is with the help of learning media using technology. This study aims to analyze the needs of infographic media for physics learning of the concept kinematics of rectilinear motions, especially for the concept of uniform rectilinear motion and accelerated uniform motion in Senior High School. This research was conducted to teachers, students, and document analysis, namely syllabus and list of instructional media at Senior High School in Sambas district using interview technique, observation, and documentation study. Researcher use triangulation and membercheck to ensure the validity of the findings of this study. The results showed that based on document analysis showed the lack of supporting books and no instructional media for the kinematics of rectilinear motions concept in selected schools and based on interviews to teachers and students that they are very interested in infographic learning media and are in need of infographic as a medium of Physics learning, the concept of kinematics rectilinear motions. The intended infographic media will be well packaged and accessible via facebook social media and backed up using smartphones as a learning tool for learners.
