Developing Digital Student Worksheets Using the Search, Solve, Create, and Share (SSCS) Model to Teach Islamic Etiquette toward Parents and Teachers to Eighth-Grade Students at MTs Nurul Hidayah Salubua, Luwu Regency

Abstract

This study developed and evaluated a digital student worksheet (LKPD) based on the Search, Solve, Create, and Share (SSCS) model for teaching Islamic etiquette toward parents and teachers to eighth-grade students. Employing a research and development approach based on the 4D model (Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate), the study was conducted at MTs Nurul Hidayah Salubua, Luwu Regency. Participants included three expert validators, one Akidah Akhlak teacher, and 13 students in a limited classroom trial. Data were obtained through observations, interviews, expert validation forms, teacher and student response questionnaires, documentation, and a posttest, and were analyzed using descriptive quantitative and qualitative procedures. The resulting 29-page digital worksheet was produced as an A4 PDF and incorporated all four SSCS stages. Expert validation scores were 97.14% for media, 93.33% for language, and 92.00% for content, meeting the study’s “highly valid” criteria. Practicality scores were 83.33% for the teacher and 83.44% for students, both classified as “highly practical.” The mean posttest score among the 13 students was 89.23 out of 100. These results indicate favorable expert evaluations, positive user perceptions, and high post-instruction attainment in the limited trial. However, because no pretest or comparison group was included, the findings cannot establish learning gains or the worksheet’s comparative effectiveness.
