摘要

The use of Android mobile phone is growing fast, also among senior high school students. Student with Android mobile phone can do many things. They are chatting, browsing, reading books, and also they love playing games with this smart device. It is good to develop an educational game operated in Android mobile phone so the students can learn everywhere and everytime by playing games in their device. This research was a development research on Android mobile game as senior high school learning media, especially on rate reaction and chemical equilibrium. The Android mobile game was developed by adapted ADDIE (i.e analysis, design, development, implementation, evaluation) method. It was reviewed by expert of chemistry, expert of multimedia, and peer-reviewers. The quality of this Android mobile game was determined based on the aspect of subject matter, language, operating proccess, audio visual, and software design. The assessment data are collected from 5 chemistry teachers and 25 senior high school students by using Likert quistionnaire. The results shows that the Android mobile game has very good quality. Students said this mobile game is interesting, joyfull, and make chemistry learning more attractive.
