Abstract : Perpustakaan Tuanku Bainun
This study aimed to develop and test the usability of the digital comic _Mitoflip_ for subtopic mitosis for form 4 Biology students. The design of this study is developmental based on the ADDIE Model and the data of this study is analysed quantitatively. A total of 35 biology students from two secondary schools in Kinta district, Perak were involved as the research respondents. The questionnaire are used as instrument to obtain the usability of the digital comic comprised 30 items with a four-point Likert scale. The study data were analysed descriptively using the Statistical Packages for Social Science (SPSS) software version 26.0. The study findings show that the digital comic _Mitoflip_ has high face, content and item validity values, with CVI = 0.97. The Cronbach_s Alpha coefficient value also indicates good reliability, at _ = 0.81. Meanwhile, the findings for each construct, namely usefulness, ease of use, design, and satisfaction, obtained mean values (standard deviation) of 3.66 (0.40), 3.68 (0.37), 3.68 (0.57), and 3.68 (0.50) respectively, with an overall construct mean of 3.68 (0.46), indicating a high usability level. The implications of this study are that student learning in the topic of cell division will become more interactive and fun by using digital comic _Mitoflip_. Teachers also can use this comics as a teaching aid in classroom. In conclusion, the digital comic _Mitoflip_ is appropriate to be used as a teaching aid in line with 21stcentury learning, as the e-comic can increase student_s interest in learning the subtopic of Mitosis.
