Abstract

Competence is the target to be achieved when implementing an Indonesian National Qualification Framework curriculum. The implementation of an innovative learning material is believed to be able to facilitate students to achieve their competence in the field of organic chemistry. This research aims to provide an innovative project-based learning material Alkenes topic to improve students’ outcomes on organic chemistry as required by the national curriculum. This research was carried out by developing sets of mini projects followed by the integration of the projects into the learning materials become a project-based learning package. The learning package is then used to guide students to learn independently in designing their projects on Alkenes topic. The result showed that an innovative learning package with projects has successfully been developed. The feasibility of teaching material has been validated by experts. The developed learning package is suited to the needs of first-year students, and is categorized as very good (M=3.75±0.42). The implementation of a project-based learning material in the classroom proved to be very effective in helping students to learn organic chemistry independently. Students enjoy learning chemistry by using the developed learning package. The facilities in the learning material help students to improve their knowledge and skills to meet the targets competencies assigned in chemistry curriculum. Student learning outcomes obtained from portfolio of project assignments (M=87.28±2.57) and final evaluations (M=78.92±6.26) are all classified as very good. The learning model developed in research is ideally used to facilitate active learning in building knowledge and skills in the field of organic chemistry.
