PENGEMBANGAN MULTIMEDIA BELAJAR ARITMATIKA UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KEMAMPUAN MATEMATIS SISWA SD

Abstract

Many multimedia learning arithmetic for elementary students are circulat-ing in the community . Does the arithmetic contains material complete , and correct concepts and processes ? Is using a sound that suits the material , convenient and evocative to learn ? Is the image ( shape , color , proportion , and animation ) in accordance with the material and the character of elementary school students ? It is necessary to know the gauge of multimedia learning arithmetic for elementary students. Survey methods are needed for 30 CDs for elementary students learn arithmetic class I to class VI from various productions . Observation, can determine the gauge multimedia learning arithmetic for elementary students that valid and reliable . Retrieved main indicator to measure the content of components/materials , audio-visual and multimedia learning arithmetic for elementary students.  Contents gauges component/material using nine indicators , five audio component indicators , 10 indicators and visual components . The measurement results showed that the content of the content/material is not yet complete . Needed improvement in the pre-sentation of concepts and processes based on nine indicators . Especially creativity in providing materials , visual motion ( animation ) in simulating the material , and the use of icons are easy and uncomplicated . In terms of audio , there are weaknesses in : 1) the composition of several works of music that already exists (not orsinal) , 2) the relationship of music to visual motion and teaching materials , so that the music only serves as a complement to, 3) color processing sound in music (timbre) are in-teresting and communicative , 4) which is a series of musical composition intact , 5) music that motivates students , 6) attention to the elements of the basic elements of music and instrumentation , 7) arrangements are treated monotonous . Judging from the visual component , there is strength in : 1) the use of vibrant colors , 2) a clear colorful but soft , 3) display an unusual shape , 4) leads to fantastic shape . Very high weakness shown in : 1) visual motion processing elements are monotonous , 2) visual motion processing elements are rigid, 3) visual motion processing elements that do not correspond to the delivery of material flow .
