Abstract

Learning tools in schools should be designed and prepared properly and pay attention to the needs of understanding students. Students' understanding of learning materials in schools/madrasas is influenced by learning tools. Not only that, learning tools are a medium that is needed in teaching and learning activities in the classroom. The learning tools applied are inseparable from student worksheets (LKPD) that can be used in the learning process. LKPD can be designed and developed by educators themselves in accordance with the material to be delivered as a support in the implementation of teaching and learning activities (Lifda Sari, Taufina, Farida F, 2020: 813-820).
