ABSTRAK
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui: 1) pengembangan modul IPA
Terpadu SMP/MTs Kelas VII dengan model Discovery Learning tema Air Limbah
Industri Batik; 2) kelayakan modul IPA Terpadu SMP/MTs Kelas VII dengan model
Discovery Learning tema Air Limbah Industri Batik; 3) efektivitas modul IPA Terpadu
SMP/MTs Kelas VII dengan model Discovery Learning tema Air Limbah Industri Batik
dalam meningkatkan keterampilan proses sains.
Penelitian pengembangan modul IPA Terpadu ini dilakukan mengikuti model R
& D dari Thiagarajan (1974) yang terdiri dari 4 tahapan, yaitu pendefinisian (define),
perancangan (design), pengembangan (develop), dan penyebaran (disseminate). Semua
tahapan tersebut telah dilakukan sehingga data yang diperoleh dianalisis lebih lanjut.
Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah Quasi Experimental Design dengan model
Nonequivalent Control Group Design. Pada desain penelitian ini terdapat pretest
sebelum diberi perlakuan dan posttest setelah diberi perlakuan. Analisis data yang
digunakan selama pengembangan adalah analisis deskriptif, analisis kelayakan modul
berdasarkan skor kriteria, dan analisis tes keterampilan proses sains, sikap dan
psikomotor melalui n-gain score dari hasil pretest dan posttest tiap kelompok dan t-test.
Hasil penelitian disimpulkan bahwa: 1) modul IPA terpadu SMP/MTs berbasis
penemuan (discovery learning) tema air limbah industri batik yang dikembangkan
dengan model Four D (4D). Perancangan dan pengembangan modul mengacu pada
sintak discovery learning. Kegiatan pembelajaran dalam modul sesuai dengan sintak
discovery learning untuk meningkatkan keterampilan proses sains siswa; 2) modul IPA
terpadu SMP/MTs berbasis penemuan (discovery learning) tema air limbah industri batik
yang dikembangkan termasuk dalam kategori sangat baik ditinjau dari kelayakan fisik,
isi/materi, bahasa, media, dan penyajian, kesesuaian model penemuan dalam
memberdayaan keterampilan proses sains siswa, kesesuaian basis discovery learning,
kualitas metode penyajian, penggunaan ilustrasi, kelengkapan bahan penunjang,
penyajian pembelajaran, kegrafikan, dan tampilan umum berdasarkan validator ahli dan
praktisi pendidikan serta menurut siswa; 3) modul IPA terpadu SMP/MTs berbasis
penemuan (discovery learning) tema air limbah industri batik yang dikembangkan efektif
meningkatkan keterampilan proses sains berdasarkan hasil N-gain score sebesar 0,32
termasuk kriteria sedang.

ABSTRACT
The research aims to know: (1) the development of the Discovery Learning-
Based Integrated Natural Science Module to increase the students’ science process skills
with the theme of Batik Industries Waste Water, which can be used as the learning
source of 7th Class the students at Junior Secondary School; (2) the feasibility of the
Discovery Learning-Based Integrated Natural Science Module to improve the students’
science process skills with the theme of Batik Industrial Waste Water; (3) the
effectiveness of the Discovery Learning-Based Integrated Natural Science Module to
improve the students’s science process skills with the theme of Batik Industrial Waste
Water.
The research on the development of the Discovery Learning-Based Integrated
Natural Science Module used the procedure claimed R & D by Thiagarajan (1974) into 4
phases, namely: 1) define, 2) design, 3) develop, and 4) disseminate. Researh design used
Quasi Experimental Design with model Nonequivalent Control Group Design. During
the development the data of research were analyzed by using the descriptive model of
analysis, the feasibility of the developed module was analyzed based on the scores of
criteria, and the science process skill test, pschicomotor was analyzed by using N-gain
score from pretest and posttest and the t-test.
The results of research are concluded: 1) the Discovery Learning-Based
Integrated Natural Science Module with the theme of Batik Industrial Waste Water
which has been developed with Four D (4D) models. Design and development of module
refer to discovery learning syntax. Learning activity in module accordance syntax
discovery learning to increase the science process skills. 2) integrated Natural Science
module based discovery learning the theme of batik industrial waste water included in
the excellent category in terms of eligibility physical, content/material, language, media,
and presentation, suitability model of the invention in the empowerment of science
process skills students, suitability base discovery learning, the quality of the method of
presentation, use of illustrations, the completeness of supporting materials, instructional
presentation, graphic, and general appearance based validator experts and practitioners as
well as by students. 3) integrated Natural Science module based discovery learning the
theme of batik industrial waste water developed effectively increase science process
skills based on the N-gain score of 0.32 including moderate category.
Keywords: Integrated Natural Science module, discovery learning, science process
skills, and batik industrial waste water.
