Abstract

Based on the observations, the students' understanding of the nuclear physics learning materials was still quite low. Most of the nuclear physics topic are abstract and nuclear physics learning has not been supported by laboratory activities. The solution of this problem is to do laboratory activities with virtual laboratory applications. The application that will be used in this activity requires a guide that matches the characteristics of students. This research aims to develop valid and practice students' worksheets as a support in the virtual laboratory activities for nuclear fission learning materials. The student's worksheets were developed using the ADDIE method that is limited to the development stage. The object of this research is a student's worksheets (LKM) used as support for virtual laboratory activities. The data collection instrument used in this research is a questionnaire of validity and practicality. Based on the research that has been done, the conclusion is the students' worksheets has been valid and practical to be used for nuclear fission learning materials. © 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
