Kajian ini dijalankan bagi membangunkan dan menilai kebolehgunaan E-Modul Easy Learning Fertigation sebagai bahan pembelajaran digital untuk topik Reka Bentuk Sistem Fertigasi dalam mata pelajaran Reka Bentuk dan Teknologi (RBT) Tingkatan Satu. Kajian ini dilaksanakan berikutan isu kesukaran murid memahami konsep sistem fertigasi yang bersifat teknikal dan abstrak serta kekurangan bahan bantu mengajar digital yang interaktif dan selaras dengan Dokumen Standard Kurikulum dan Pentaksiran (DSKP). Kajian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif berbentuk deskriptif dengan kaedah penyelidikan dan pembangunan (Research and Development, R&D) berasaskan Model ADDIE yang melibatkan lima fasa utama iaitu analisis, reka bentuk, pembangunan, pelaksanaan dan penilaian. Seramai 50 orang murid Tingkatan Satu dari sebuah sekolah menengah di Sarawak terlibat dalam kajian keperluan dan penerimaan modul, manakala tiga orang pakar dalam bidang RBT dan Teknologi Pendidikan terlibat dalam penilaian kesahan dan kebolehgunaan modul. Instrumen kajian terdiri daripada soal selidik skala Likert lima mata dan borang penilaian pakar. Data dianalisis menggunakan statistik deskriptif melibatkan min, peratusan dan sisihan piawai. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa murid mempunyai tahap keperluan dan penerimaan yang tinggi terhadap penggunaan e-modul dalam pembelajaran topik fertigasi dengan skor min antara 4.18 hingga 4.58. Penilaian pakar pula menunjukkan bahawa E-Modul Easy Learning Fertigation mempunyai tahap kesahan dan kebolehgunaan yang tinggi dengan purata skor min keseluruhan sebanyak 4.71 bagi aspek kesahan dan 4.38 bagi aspek kebolehgunaan modul. Penggunaan elemen multimedia seperti ilustrasi, video dan kuiz interaktif didapati membantu meningkatkan kefahaman, minat dan penglibatan murid dalam pembelajaran selaras dengan pelaksanaan pembelajaran digital dan Pendidikan Abad Ke-21 (PAK-21). Kajian ini turut menyokong Matlamat Pembangunan Mampan (SDG) 4 iaitu Pendidikan Berkualiti melalui pembangunan bahan pembelajaran digital yang inovatif, interaktif dan mudah diakses bagi memperkukuh pembelajaran RBT di sekolah menengah. Kesimpulannya, E-Modul Easy Learning Fertigation berpotensi menjadi bahan bantu mengajar digital yang efektif dalam memperkukuh pembelajaran topik sistem fertigasi serta menyokong pengintegrasian teknologi dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran RBT.
ABSTRACT - This study was conducted to develop and evaluate the usability of the Easy Learning Fertigation E-Module as a digital learning material for the Fertigation System Design topic in the Form One Design and Technology (RBT) subject. The study was undertaken due to students’ difficulties in understanding the technical and abstract concepts of fertigation systems, as well as the lack of interactive digital teaching materials aligned with the Curriculum and Assessment Standard Document (DSKP). The study employed a descriptive quantitative approach using the Research and Development (R&D) method based on the ADDIE Model, which consists of five main phases: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. A total of 50 Form One students from a secondary school in Sarawak participated in the needs analysis and module acceptance evaluation, while three experts in the fields of RBT and Educational Technology were involved in assessing the validity and usability of the module. The research instruments consisted of five-point Likert scale questionnaires and expert evaluation forms. The collected data were analysed using descriptive statistics involving mean, percentage, and standard deviation. The findings revealed that students demonstrated a high level of need and acceptance towards the use of the e-module in learning the fertigation topic, with mean scores ranging from 4.18 to 4.58. Expert evaluations also indicated that the Easy Learning Fertigation E-Module achieved a high level of validity and usability, with overall mean scores of 4.71 for validity and 4.38 for usability. The integration of multimedia elements such as illustrations, videos, and interactive quizzes was found to enhance students’ understanding, interest, and engagement in learning in line with digital learning practices and 21st-century learning (PAK-21). This study also supports Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4, namely Quality Education, through the development of innovative, interactive, and accessible digital learning materials to strengthen RBT learning in secondary schools. In conclusion, the Easy Learning Fertigation E-Module has strong potential as an effective digital teaching aid in strengthening the learning of fertigation system topics and supporting technology integration in RBT teaching and learning.
