Development of Economic Mathematics Learning Materials Based on Problem Based Learning

The purpose of this study was to produce teaching materials for economics based on Problem Based Learning in an effective and interest-oriented Economic Education Study Program based on an enhanced contextual and ICT-based economic education program curriculum. This study uses the Borg and Gall model as well as the procedures include: identifying problems and potential, collecting data and designing products, design validation by experts, design revisions. The results of the study show that the economic mathematics teaching materials developed have good criteria. Design experts judge that the teaching materials for economic mathematics courses based on Problem Based Learning are appropriate. Material experts assess economic mathematics teaching materials based on Problem Based Learning is very good / very suitable to be used as a guidebook for students. This teaching material helps students to remind students of their understanding in the economics mathematics course. In general, based on the results of data analysis, both expert validation results indicate that the quality of economic mathematics teaching materials is good / appropriate, so that the development of teaching materials is of direct benefit for the formation of professional students' competencies and also for the Economic Education study program of Jambi University to ensure learning quality.
