INTRODUCTION
1.1. Background
The development of innovative learning module is very important as it is
known that innovative teaching and learning is able to motivate students to learn
effectively that may improve student’s achievement in chemistry. Especially in
fulfill high quality of learning material that used by students in Senior High
School or Madrasah Aliyah that available with curriculum 2013 in North
Sumatera (Situmorang, 2010).
The book is one component in the process of teaching and learning
activities.Textbooks are one source of knowledge for students in the school who
was really a process of teaching and learning support.Therefore, a good textbook
and quality in addition to being a source of knowledge that can support the
success of student learning can also guide and direct the learning process in the
classroom towards quality learning process as well. The process of teaching and
learning activities of teachers and students will not be separated from the book,
although the teacher can explain the material clearly and in full, but the book
holds a very important role in teaching and learning in education.
Education is one of the foundations that determines the toughness and
progress of a nation. Educational paths can be obtained through formal education
and non-formal education channels. Schools as institutions of formal education
required to perform a good learning process and optimally so as to print the
nation's youth are intelligent, skilled, and high moral character. The learning
process helps students to develop its intellectual potential, so the main goal of
learning is the work done so that each student can grow intellectually (Drost,
1999:3-4).
One branch of the subject is considered difficult by students of
chemistry.Effendy (2006: 1) defines chemistry as: "Chemistry is a branch of
science the which deals with the properties of matter, structure of matter, changes
2
theories that interpret them". During this time, the tendency of the learning
process chemistry just focused on the student's ability to memorize, but in reality
they do not understand in depth the substance of the material, how to connect
between what is learned in real life and how to leverage the knowledge to support
life.Chemistry subjects become very important position in the society as a
chemical always be around us in everyday life.Chemistry is the study of the
subject matter and the changes that occur in it.But as long as there are still many
students who have difficulty in understanding and following the chemistry
lesson.It is not independent of the material being studied in chemistry are more
abstract.So that teachers find it difficult to teach chemistry in the learning
material in the classroom.Therefore, it is necessary that proper teaching materials
and effective so that students gain a clear picture and details related to the material
being studied.Teaching materials is one of the components in the learning system
that plays an important role in helping students to achieve the indicators specified
in the standard of competence and basic competences.Teaching materials should
be designed so interesting to make the students as learners will be more eager to
read it.
Development of essential teaching materials made by educators that
learning is more effective, efficient, and does not deviate from the competencies
to be achieved.One of the teaching materials that can be used to help the learning
process is a module.The module is a book written with the aim that students can
learn independently without or with the guidance of the teacher, so that the
module contains most of the basic components of teaching materials that have
been mentioned previously (Abdul Majid, 2006:176).Made by Russell (2009:
230), the system will make the learning module learning more efficient, effective,
and relevant.Excellence and excess module has a module is self instruction that
allows students to learn independently using the module and the teacher is no
longer the only source of learning for students.Development of teaching materials
shaped module will allow students to understand the learning materials.
Government efforts in education are to enhance the Education Unit Level

emphasis on character education. This curriculum requires teachers to be more
patient, attentive and understanding, as well as having the creativity and
dedication to growing confidence of learners. With the implementation of
Curriculum 2013, the learning process began to be improved by using a variety of
approaches that put more emphasis on learner competence, which includes
knowledge, skills, and activities of learners in thinking and acting. The
implementation of this learning demand that students should no longer only
regarded as an object of study, but should be given an active role in the learning
process so that students act as agents active learners while teachers act as
facilitators and mediators creative changes must be followed by a teacher who is
responsible for organizing learning in school.
Curriculum 2013 need to be implemented starting in 2013 and therefore
the teaching and learning process, and therefore the study is processed on the
development of chemistry module to meet the requirement to achieve their
competence.
Based on the above problem, steps need to be taken researchers is to create
teaching materials chemistry. Chemistry teaching material is shaped modules
compiled by researchers in order to help provide clearer information and
systematically to students and may ultimately serve as a source of
learning. Researchers will develop a chemistry module of SMA / MA class XI
with the subject matter of acids and bases. Subject matter is chosen because it is a
lot of material related to everyday life. So that students are able to apply and
associate knowledge with everyday life. So it is necessary to conduct research
entitled "The Development of Innovative Learning Module on the Teaching of
Acid and Base Solution Based on Curriculum 2013".
