Abstract

Project-based learning (PjBL) is one of the learning strategies which can be used to develop the critical and creative thinking skills (CCTS) among students to ensure that they can compete despite facing various challenges in this globalisation era. Hence, this study was performed to develop a project-based learning module for the Natural Water Resources subtopic of Year Two Science subject. This study was a developmental study that involved the development of module according to five phases of ADDIE instructional design model, namely analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation. However, this article only focuses on the development and validity analysis of the learning module which is in the development phase. The module was developed by applying PjBL strategy and consisted of the activity of designing and constructing Earth’s landform model that has natural water resources. The face validity and content validity of the Love Our Water Resources learning module were evaluated by three experts and analysed using descriptive statistical analysis to determine the value of expert agreement (EA) percentage. The finding analysis proved that the module had high EA percentages of 95% for face validity and 98% for content validity. In conclusion, the developed project-based learning module for the Natural Water Resources subtopic of Year Two Science subject has good face validity and content validity. The implication of this study is the developed learning module can be employed as a learning aid to develop the CCTS among Year Two students.
