Learning Needs Analysis of 3D Stereoscopic Textbook: An empirical study of Primary School Pupils and Teachers in Science Learning

摘要

This study is descriptive and explorative research which is aimed to find out the needs of students and teachers against the textbooks based 3D stereoscopic images towards the implementation of science learning based on curriculum 2013 framework design by using thematic learning concept. Because the learning process is conducted thematically, so the textbooks which used also is constructed thematicallly by integrating various concepts of subject. One of the subjects is science. The aims of this research is reached through observation, interview, and study of document. The finding of observation shows that the students get some problems in the interest to learns. This case appears while the students are doing activities which are not related to learning. Meanwhile, from the result of interview supported by the data of study to document, it is revealed that intregating thematically causes the implementation of science subject is not conducted in depth. Beside that, the teachers complain the usage of colorless thematical textbook, so the application of pictures in textbooks to illustrate the concept of science is not complete and it is not interesting, whereas the students of primay school rates 7 to 11 years old that is still in the phase of concrete operational thinking that require the textbook presenting concrete learning concepts. Based on the statements above, it is happened commonly if the students are not interested to learn. It concludes that thematical textbooks which is used nowdays have some weaknesses in presenting the learning concepts.
