- Abstract
The integration of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) concepts into biotechnology textbooks is a significant contributor to the development of competencies and the enhancement of the efficacy and quality of natural sciences education. The objective of this research is to develop and validate a STEM-integrated biotechnology learning book that is specifically designed to teach research skills to prospective natural science teacher students. This research is classified as development research following the stages of the Plomp model, specifically (a) preliminary, (b) prototyping, and (c) assessment. Validation is a data collection method involving five validator participants. The semi-qualitative data will be analyzed using percentages and the NVivo software. The results of the data analysis indicated that the textbook exhibited an average validity score of 3.57, which was categorized as “very valid.” Additionally, the analysis of the reliability coefficient of the textbook yielded an average score of 0.74, which was categorized as “high.” In conclusion, the biotechnology learning books developed have been found to exhibit excellent quality from various perspectives and are therefore categorized as valid and reliable.
