LITERATURE REVIEW
A. Teaching Materials
Teaching materials are a crucial component in the implementation of learning in
schools. Through teaching materials, educators find it easier to teach, and students find it
easier to comprehend their lessons. According to Prastowo (2014), teaching materials
encompass all content (information, tools, or readings) arranged analytically,
demonstrating the complete form of competencies that students are meant to understand.
Meanwhile, according to Hamdani (2013), teaching materials encompass all forms of
content (recorded or unrecorded) used by teachers in guiding learning activities in the
classroom. Teaching materials come in various types, including both printed and non-
printed materials. Printed teaching materials consist of books, handouts, modules,
brochures, and student worksheets. Non-printed teaching materials include audio-based
materials such as cassettes, radio, vinyl records, and audio CDs. There are also interactive
multimedia teaching materials such as compact discs (CDs) and web-based instructional
materials (Lestari, 2013).
B. E-Modules
A module is systematically and attractively structured teaching material that
includes content, methods, and evaluations that can be used independently. The language
in a module is kept simple according to the students' thinking level or depending on their
academic level. It is used independently so that individuals can learn at their own pace
effectively and efficiently. An e-module is an electronic version of a module that is
accessed and utilized through electronic devices such as computers, laptops, tablets, or
even smartphones. It can display images, videos, audios, animations, and formative
quizzes, creating an active learning environment that helps learners improve their
cognitive competencies or understanding. E-modules allow self-directed learning within a
specific time frame.
According to Vembiarto (1985), essential components that should be included in a
module are subject reviews, introductions, learning activities, exercises, exercise answer
guidelines, summaries, formative tests, and formative test answer keys. E-modules can be
embedded in multimedia technology, making them a better learning source compared to
traditional print media modules. E-modules are equipped with images, videos/animations,
quizzes, and interactive features to capture students' attention.
3
The E-Module used in activities has several advantages. The content presented in
the E-Module is not only in text form but can also be enriched with images or videos that
can enhance the interest and appeal of students' learning (Wulandari et al., 2021). This
advantage certainly enables the learning process to be conducted effectively and
efficiently. Additionally, it can support interaction between teachers and students, allowing
students to better understand the lesson concepts and experience improved learning
outcomes. As for the disadvantages of the E-Module, both teachers and students are
required to have internet access and compatible devices to use the E-Module. Moreover,
teachers need to have the capability to use technology to effectively implement the E-
Module.
C. Development of E-Module Using Canva Application
One of the software that can be used in creating e-modules is Canva. Canva is an
online design program that provides a variety of designs, such as social media designs,
presentations, videos, marketing prints, office materials, photo collages, book covers,
magazine covers, calendars, posters, worksheets, reports, agendas, comics, proposals,
ebook covers, and many other designs. This application offers features used for education,
marketing, advertising, and more. By utilizing Canva, one can create a creative and
engaging e-module (electronic module) (Pelangi, 2020). Canva has numerous advantages,
as mentioned by Tanjung and Faiza (2019), including the following:
1. It offers a variety of attractive graphic designs, animations, templates, and page
numbers.
2. Canva can enhance teachers' creativity in designing instructional media due to the
many provided features, including drag-and-drop functionality.
3. It saves time in designing practical instructional media.
4. Students can review the material through Canva instructional media provided by the
teacher.
5. Canva has good image resolution, and Canva media slides can be automatically
printed with print size settings.
6. Collaboration with other teachers in designing media and creating Canva design teams
for sharing instructional media is possible.
7. Designing instructional media can be done anytime, not only on a laptop but also on a
mobile phone. To add animations, users must make a payment through a credit card.
However, Canva media can be downloaded in various storage formats such as PDF
4
and JPG. Therefore, for offline presentations, it can be combined with other media
like PowerPoint.
In addition to the advantages gained by using this application, Canva also has some
fundamental disadvantages, including the following:
1. Canva relies on a sufficiently stable internet network. If there is no internet or
insufficient data on the device, Canva cannot be used or supported in the design
process.
2. In the Canva application, there are paid features such as templates, stickers,
illustrations, fonts, etc. So, some features are paid while others are not. However, this
is not an issue as there are many attractive and free templates available. It depends on
the user to design something interesting and rely on their own creativity. Sometimes,
the selected design may resemble designs chosen by others, whether it be templates,
images, colors, etc. However, this is not a problem, as it ultimately depends on the
user to choose a different design.
3. Sometimes, the selected design may have similarities with designs chosen by others,
whether it be the template, images, colors, and so on. However, this is not a problem;
it ultimately depends on the user to choose a different design.
D. Cell Division
Cell division is an abstract learning material, and there are two types of cell
division: mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis occurs in somatic cells, forming new cells with the
same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Meanwhile, meiosis occurs in gamete
cells (egg and sperm) within the gonad (Campbell, 2010). The essential topics in cell
division include mitosis, meiosis, the cell cycle, and gametogenesis. Mitosis is the cell
division that occurs in somatic cells, while meiosis is the cell division that occurs in
reproductive cells. Mitosis and meiosis are part of the cell cycle and only cover 5-10% of
the cell cycle. Gametogenesis is the process of forming gametes (sex cells) through
meiotic division. Gametogenesis includes spermatogenesis (formation of sperm or
spermatozoa) and oogenesis (formation of eggs). Gametogenesis is a process that
transforms germ plasma into specialized sex cells capable of fertilization or conception,
leading to growth and development into a new individual.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
A. Result
The ADDIE model is used in the development process of this e-module. The
ADDIE model consists of five stages as follows: analyze, design, development,
implementation, and evaluation.
1. Analyze
Analysis is the basic stage to understand the situation in the field and to identify problems
in learning, obtaining data about the instructional material to be developed, whether the e-
module will be needed, and whether it is necessary to develop it. Some analyses conducted
by the researcher in this development include an analysis of the needs and characteristics
of the e-module, technology analysis, and curriculum analysis. The purpose of this analysis
stage is to provide a foundation for the development of the e-module.
a) Needs Analysis: The instructional materials used during learning only follow the
teacher's book and student's book of the 2013 curriculum revision 2017, insufficient
use of technology during learning, insufficient use of innovative and interactive
instructional materials in the learning process.
b) Technology Analysis: Based on direct observations at SMAN 14 Makassar, it was
found that the school is equipped with adequate technological facilities to support the
learning process of students and assist researchers in conducting future trials. The
school has a computer lab with a sufficient number of computers, an adequate internet
network, WiFi availability, and several LCD projectors. Therefore, students can use
the e-module on a computer if they do not have a smartphone or laptop.
c) Curriculum Analysis: The curriculum used at SMAN 14 Makassar, based on
observations, is the 2013 curriculum for grades XI and XII and the independent
curriculum for grade X. The instructional materials used in grade XII are printed
teacher and student books revised in 2017. Before conceptualizing the lesson material,
the researcher first identifies the Competency Standards (KD), indicators, learning
objectives, and the subject matter to be taken, which is cell division.
2. Design
a) Preparing materials and equipment
11
In this stage, the researcher prepares the materials and equipment needed in the
development process of the E-Module which laptop, Canva Pro App, Google Forms,
Liveworksheet, Quizizz, and Biology Material Book.

3. Development
In the development stage, the product that has been designed is then validated by
validators. Product validation is carried out by validators who are experts in their field.
Material validation is carried out by a material expert, Mr. Hartono, S.Si., S.Pd,
M.Biotech., Ph.D. Meanwhile, media validation is carried out by a media expert, Dr. Drs.
Abd. Muis, M.Si. The results of the validation assessment of the e-module obtained from
the material expert and the media expert are presented in Table 3 as follows.
Table 4.3 Validity Results of The E-Module
No Validator Percentage Notes
1 Material Expert 91,6% Very Valid
2 Media Expert 96,8% Very Valid
Average 94,2% Very Valid
The suggestions from the validators will then be used by the researcher as a
reference for refining the e-module product.
4. Implementation
The next stage after validation is the implementation of the product, which involves
testing to determine the practicality level of the product, as seen from the questionnaire
responses given to teachers and students. The results of the practicality assessment of the
e-module obtained from teachers and students can be seen in Table 4 below.
Table 4.4 Practicality Results of The E-Module
No Respondent Percentage Notes
1 Teacher 93,6% Very Practical
2 Students 89,6% Very Practical
Average 91,6% Very Practical
5. Evaluation
Evaluation and revision are carried out at every stage of development so that the
developed e-module can be considered valid. The researcher makes improvements at every
process and stage, ensuring that the product developed, namely the e-module, can be used
for 12th-grade high school biology lessons on cell division. Evaluation is conducted at
every stage of development, from the initial phase to the end of the research and product
development process.
B. Discussion
This research is a type of Research and Development (R&D). The developed
product is an electronic teaching material in the form of an e-module using the Canva
14
application for biology lessons on cell division in 12th-grade high school. The ADDIE
model is used to create this product, consisting of stages such as analysis, design,
development, implementation, and evaluation. The researcher chose the ADDIE model
during product development because it can be applied to various forms of product
development, including teaching materials like the e-module being created (Sari, 2017).
The development process of the e-module begins with the analysis phase, including
needs analysis, technological analysis, and curriculum analysis. The needs analysis aims to
identify issues in the learning process, adjusting them to the development of the e-module.
The data show the need for additional or supporting teaching materials to explain cell
division, where students cannot rely on imagination alone but need clear, concrete, and
clear guidance. Therefore, this e-module is developed according to the needs and
characteristics or the learning level of 12th-grade high school students, allowing them to
use it independently. Technological analysis is also performed to determine the availability
of technology devices for the future implementation of the e-module. The research site,
SMAN 14 Makassar, has a computer lab, allowing students without smartphones or
laptops to implement the product. Curriculum analysis reveals that 12th-grade classes at
SMAN 14 Makassar still use the 2013 curriculum. Thus, the e-module is developed in line
with the competencies, indicators, and learning objectives of the 2013 curriculum.
The next stage is the design or development of the e-module. The researcher
collects material from various sources, selects the necessary tools and materials, and then
begins designing the e-module product. Subsequently, the development phase follows the
ADDIE model. The developed product will be validated by experts or validators in their
respective fields, namely material and media validators. Based on the explanations related
to the validation results from both expert validators, the e-module can be categorized as
highly valid. The e-module developed by the researcher has been well-designed according
to the validity assessment criteria. Within the e-module, the purpose of use is clearly
stated, all components are complete, there is a reference list to facilitate further learning,
usage instructions and e-module learning activities are clearly presented, and the
components are systematically organized. The e-module is also equipped with various
images, instructional videos, quizzes, and evaluation activities presented through various
media such as Quizziz, LiveWorksheet, and Google Form. The suggestions from these
validators will be used by the researcher as a reference for improving the e-module
product. The validation process involves two stages.
15
After validation, the next stage is product implementation, including testing to
determine the practicality level, observed through questionnaires given to teachers and
students. Some comments provided by students on the questionnaire sheets include that the
e-module is easy to understand because it is structured and supplemented with various
media such as images and instructional videos. Some students express a desire to use this
type of e-module in every lesson because it facilitates their understanding of the material
The implementation stage has been completed, and the final step is evaluation. Evaluation
during the development stage involves refining the product based on feedback or
corrections from validators. Evaluation during the implementation stage is conducted by
observing difficulties experienced by students during the trial to revise the product.

CHAPTER V
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
A. Conclusions
The conclusions drawn from the findings of the research and development of the
biology e-module using the Canva application on the topic of cell division for grade XII
high school are as follows:
1. The development process of the e-module was conducted following the ADDIE
model, as this model is applicable for addressing instructional material-related issues.
The process includes analysis stages (needs, technology, curriculum), followed by the
design stage, development involving validation of both material and media by experts,
implementation through testing and administering practicality questionnaires to grade
XII MIPA 1 teachers and students at SMAN 14 Makassar, and an evaluation stage for
the creation of the biology e-module on the topic of cell division.
2. Based on the data analysis and discussion results, the level of validity of the developed
e-module is deemed highly valid. This is indicated by the percentage of validity
results from the material expert, which is 91.6%, and the validity results from the
media expert, which is 96.8%. The e-module is considered to meet every aspect of the
validity criteria.
3. According to the analysis of data and discussion, the practicality level obtained from
response questionnaires conducted by teachers and students resulted in a practicality
percentage of 93.6% from the teacher questionnaire and 86.3% from the student
questionnaire. This indicates that the developed e-module falls into the category of
very practical and is considered to meet every criterion for practicality aspects.
B. Recommendations
1. The researcher suggests that during the development process of the e-module product
using the ADDIE model, specifically in the design and development stages, it is
advisable to incorporate more variations of applications or media. This approach aims
to enhance the quality and interactivity of the resulting product.
2. The researcher recommends that during the product validation process, create the
product thoroughly and comprehensively according to the criteria of e-module
components. This ensures that there is minimal need for revisions or modifications to
the already established e-module.
