PENGEMBANGAN MEDIA PEMBELAJARAN BERBASIS NEARPOD DAN PADLET PADA MATERI SISTEM PERNAPASAN MANUSIA UNTUK SISWA KELAS V SD

Abstract

The digital transformation in education encourages educators to implement innovative and interactive teaching methods. This study aims to develop and implement learning media based on Nearpod and Padlet for the human respiratory system material for fifth-grade elementary school students. The research employed the ADDIE development model, which consists of five stages: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. Expert evaluation results indicated that the media were highly feasible for use, as their implementation led to increased active participation, learning motivation, and students’ conceptual understanding. The average student score improved from 63.2 (pre-test) to 84.7 (post-test), and 92% of students stated that the material was easier to understand. The study concludes that the integration of Nearpod and Padlet is effective in supporting collaborative and interactive learning, in alignment with the Merdeka Belajar (Freedom to Learn) approach in the digital era.
