Perubahan kurikulum menjadi kurikulum merdeka menyebabkan terjadinya beberapa perubahan. Salah satu perubahan yang tampak adalah peralihan sebutan dari Rancangan Pelaksanaan Pembelajaran (RPP) menjadi Modul Ajar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangankan modul ajar dengan berbasis Pendekatan STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, dan Mathematics) agar layak dan dapat diterapkan pada kegiatan belajar mengajar. Jenis penelitian ini adalah R&D (Research and Development) dengan model pengembangan Thiagarajan 4-D, yaitu define, design, develop, dan disseminate. Subjek penelitian ini adalah dua orang validator dan seorang guru IPA SMP Negeri 14 Banda Aceh serta peserta didik kelas VII. Kelayakan modul ajar diukur dengan uji kelayakan oleh validator ahli, angket respon guru, serta angket respon peserta didik. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah lembar validasi untuk menilai kelayakan modul ajar oleh validator, angket respon guru, dan angket respon peserta didik. Data hasil penelitian kemudian diolah menjadi persentase. Hasil uji ahli materi menunjukkan persentase kelayakan sebesar 100% (Validator 1) dan sebesar 84,32% (Validator 2). Sedangkan persentase kelayakan ahli media sebesar 98,26% (Validator 1) dan sebesar 80,43% (Validator 2). Selain itu, diperoleh juga persentase hasil angket respon guru sebesar 99,04% dan persentase angket respon peserta didik sebesar 78,67% dan 88%. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian yang telah dilakukan dapat disimpulkan bahwa Modul Ajar Pendekatan STEM telah layak dan dapat digunakan dalam kegiatan belajar mengajar.

Changing the curriculum to an independent curriculum caused several changes. One of the visible changes is the change in designation from Learning Implementation Plan (RPP) to Teaching Module. This research aims to develop a teaching module based on the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) approach so that it is feasible and can be applied to teaching and learning activities. This type of research is R&D (Research and Development) with the Thiagarajan 4-D development model, namely define, design, develop and disseminate. The subjects of this research were two validators and a science teacher at SMP Negeri 14 Banda Aceh and class VII students. The feasibility of the teaching module is measured by a feasibility test by an expert validator, a teacher response questionnaire, and a student response questionnaire. The data collection techniques used in this research are validation sheets to assess the feasibility of teaching modules by validators, teacher response questionnaires, and student response questionnaires. The research data is then processed into percentages. The material expert test results showed a feasibility percentage of 100% (Validator 1) and 84.32% (Validator 2). Meanwhile, the percentage of eligibility for media experts was 98.26% (Validator 1) and 80.43% (Validator 2). Apart from that, the percentage of teacher response questionnaire results was also obtained at 99.04% and the percentage of student response questionnaire results at 78.67% and 88%. Based on the results of the research that has been carried out, it can be concluded that the STEM Approach Teaching Module is feasible and can be used in teaching and learning activities.
