Abstract: Gymnastics learning in the fourth grade at SDN Palbapang Baru was not optimal; many students were not

enthusiastic. The teacher did not use learning media when teaching floor exercises. This study aims to

develop learning media in the form of floor gymnastics picture cards. This research was a development

study that went through 10 stages to produce a learning media product in the form of floor gymnastics

picture cards. This research was taken place in SDN Palbapang Baru, Bantul regency, and involved 40

fourth-grade students. The instrument in this study was a questionnaire. The results of the questionnaire

were calculated using percentage method and then put in a category system to determine the level of

eligibility. Based on the results of the research, it is concluded that the developed learning media in the form

of floor gymnastics picture cards falls into the category of decent. It is proven from the results of the trial,

that the product gets a worthiness of 100% with a very decent category.

1 INTRODUCTION

The implementation of the floor gymnastics learning

materials has been conducted according to the ability

of each student towards the learning subjects without

breaking the rules of the regulation towards the

materials that have been set. In the fourth grade of

Palbapang Baru Public Elementary School, the floor

gymnastics learning materials has been adjusted

according to the ability of the students. Several

gymnastics for fourth-grade students at Palbapang

Baru elementary school include; forward roll,

backward roll, rolling/ wheels, and bridge. The floor

gymnastic materials are already adjusted based on

the ability level of fourth-grade students’ physical

activities. Moreover, the infrastructure that has been

used in the floor gymnastics exercise at Palbapang

Baru Elementary School is also sufficient. This

school has four mattresses in a good condition and a

wide place for the learning excercises.

Eventhough the floor gymnastics materials for

fourth-grade students in Palbapang Baru public

elementary school have been adjusted according to

the ability level of fourth-grade students and

sufficient facilities and infrastructure have been

provided, the researcher still found some problems

regarding the floor gymnastics activities. From the

research that has been conducted, the researcher

found three main problems. Firstly, there are 28

students out of 40 students who feel they are not

motivated to follow the floor gymnastics learning.

Secondly, there are 29 out of 40 students who feel

deep fear to do floor gymnastics movements.

Thirdly, there are 30 students out of 40 students who

find it is difficult to do floor gymnastics movements.

From the above problems, the researcher found a

solution towards the problem that is by utilizing

picture cards as learning media. From the results of

the questionnaire among the teachers and the

students, there are 40 students and 2 teachers who

are willing to use card learning media in the floor

gymnastics learning. The questionnaire is then

calculated using the percentage method. The results

show that there is 95.24% of teachers and students

who want to use card learning media in the floor

gymnastics learning.

steps. The first step involved the preparation stage.

In this stage, the researcher compiled a research

proposal and research instruments, and made

agreement and ratification of the proposal. The

second step was the implementation of the research.

In this step, the researcher conducted the research

which is in the form of testing media product card in

learning floor gymnastics picture. This research was

conducted at Palbapang Baru elementary school.

2.2 Subject and Object of the Research

The subjects of this research are 40 fourth-grade

students of Palbapang Baru elementary school who

have problems in the floor gymnastics learning. The

object of this research is picture card as floor

gymnastics learning materials.

2.3 Design of the Research

This research was carried out through several steps,

including exploring potential and problems,

collecting the materials, designing the product,

printing the product, and validating the product done

by material and media experts.

2.4 Data Collection Technique

This research used a questionnaire as the data

collection technique. This research used the

questionnaire method of Guttman scale that contains

only yes and no answer, positive negatives, right or

wrong (Sugiyono, 2015). Questionnaire in this

research is used for several purposes: to explore

problems and the potential solutions; to review the

product which was done by experts; to assess the

product done by students after conducting trials on

product.

2.5 Data Analysis Technique

Data analysis techniques in this study employed

percentage method (Suharsimi Arikunto, 1996). The

percentage can be written using this following

formula:

Percentage of eligibility 

 

x 100%

After the data were calculated, the results were

presented in the form of percentage. The following

table shows the result of the calculation:

The results of the research are presented in three

parts. Firstly, the result of the research at the

collection stage data to find out the level of need of

the students and teachers in using picture card for

floor gymnastics learning. The results of the

research are as follows.

3.2 Discussion

The result of the learning media trials towards the

fourth-grade students of Palbapang Baru elementary

school in the Bantul regency was significant. The

product had a positive impact on both students and

teachers. By using the product, the teacher could

easily teach the materials to the students. On the

other side, the students also felt easier to learn the

materials. It can be seen from the enthusiasim of the

students during the implementation of the learning

materials. There are 40 students who stated that by

using the product, it easier for them to understand

the floor gymnastics learning materials. Moreover,

they also stated that they can remember the learning

materials better. Besides, they also could practice the

materials easily by using the learning media.

According to Kemp and Dayton (Hamdani 2011),

learning media can make the learning process more

clearly, interesting, and efficient.

In the implementation of the learning media

product, the teachers found it easier to teach the

materials and the students also found it easier to

understand the materials. This happened because the

product is a kind of learning media that can be

visually understood. By relying on the vision,

teachers will more easily convey lessons to students

501

and the students will also be easier to learn the

lessons delivered by the teacher, thus the learners’

learning goals can be achieved effectively. This is in

line with Daryanto’s opinion (2010) that vision has

the percentage of stimulus absorption of 82%.

Vision has a superior absorption rate of stimulus

compared to other sensings. The results of product

trials for fourth-grade students at SD Negeri

Palbapang Baru show that the use of the product

increased students’ interest and activity. The

students were interested in the product, and it is

found that the product had a positive impact on the

students and added new experience to their learning.

The use of picture cards could improve students’

enthusiasm in learning. It made the students feel

happy and do not get bored quickly during the

learning process, resulting in more effective

learning. The students looked more active during

learning activities: they actively asked and answered

questions and made various floor gymnastics

movements.

The use of floor gymnastics learning media in

the form of picture cards made the learning methods

used by teachers become more varied. It also made it

easier for the teacher to present an object that is not

possible to be brought into the classroom in its

original form. By using the media, the teacher was

able to present mock objects from the actual ones.

Students found it easier to understand the teacher's

explanation than when the teacher used conventional

method (lecturing).

4 CONCLUSION

Based on the results of the research, it can be

concluded that the instructional media product in the

form of picture cards of floor gymnastics movement

falls into a very decent category. The product

viability has been proven from the results of product

trials and assessment that got the eligibility

percentage of 100%.

This research proposes some recomendation: (1)

picture cards with other themes are suggested to be

made (2) picture cards will last longer if its base

material is plastic (3) validation from learning

experts is suggested for further research (4) it is

suggested for other researchers to use research steps

in a coherent and complete manner.
