Fabrication of simple paper-based indicator for using in acid-base learning
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the fabrication of simple paper-based indicator from plant extracts for promoting student’s learning in the chemistry classroom. The sample in this study was 30 grade 11 students who were studying acid-base. The experimental design based on one group pre- and post-tests was used for conducting this research. The instrument used in this study consisted of hands-on activities for the fabrication of simple paper-based indicator from plant extracts, acid-base chemistry diagnostic tests and questionnaire, respectively. The t-test (p 0.05) showed statistically significant differences between before (mean = 3.57, S.D. = 2.24) and after treatment (mean = 7.73, S.D. = 3.74) indicating that the teaching approach using hands-on activities the fabrication of simple paper-based indicator from plant extracts can be used very well to enhance student’s learning in acid-base in the chemistry classroom. Moreover, students also satisfied the learning activities in the good level.
