The Development of Teaching Materials for Subjects of Numerical Method Assisted by MATLAB Software in Mathematics Education Department Students

The purpose of this study was to develop teaching materials for numerical methods supported by valid, practical, and effective MATLAB software for students of Mathematics Education Department at UIN Alauddin Makassar. The type of research used was Research and Development with reference to the ADDIE development model, namely Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The product developed in the form of teaching materials was a module which not only contains material in the Numerical Method course but also was equipped with MATLAB syntax that can help students actively in the teaching and learning process. The instruments used in this study were expert validation sheets, observation sheets for the implementation of teaching materials, student questionnaire responses, observation sheets for student activities, and learning achievement tests. Based on the results of trials conducted, it was found that (1) The validation results for teaching materials and all instruments are in the very valid category. (2) Practical, the average of all aspects are in the category implemented entirely and all aspects of student responses are very positive (3) Effective, student learning outcomes have met the completeness criteria and the average student activity using teaching materials assisted with MATLAB software is in the category very good. So it was concluded that the development of teaching materials assisted by MATLAB software in the numerical methods course of students Mathematics Education Department at UIN Alauddin Makassar had met the criteria of validity, practicality, and effectiveness.
