AB  - This study aims to determine: the effectiveness
of teaching materials developed through constructivist
approach based on the strengthening of character
education to grade 4 students of elementary school and to
know the student’s response to the developed teaching
materials. Subjects in this study are 4th graders consisting
of two classes with many students each class is 34 people.
This research is a development research by using
modification of 4-D development model (Define, Design,
Develop, Disseminate) which is limited only Until the
third stage, namely (Define, Design and Develop). Data
collection is done through validation sheet, observation
sheet and ability test of learning result. Data analysis
technique use descriptive analysis and qualitative statistic.
Before the experimental material is first tested validated
to two validators with the percentage of validity level
given by each validator is 90.5 and 93.18%. The
effectiveness analysis based on trial I and II are as
follows: the achievement of student’s learning
completeness is 32% in trial I and 88% in trial II; student
activity on trial I was not effective while in trial II was
effective. Student’s ability between trial I and II increased
for each aspect with a total average of 1.85 for trial I and
2.87 for trial II, so that, the average percentage increase
was 25.5%. Thus, the teaching materials meet all the
criteria of effectiveness and the pilot activities stop at trial
II. Based on the experiments I and II known that the
student’s response to the teaching materials positive for
almost all aspects. Based on the results of data analysis
can be concluded that the learning device constructivist
approach by incorporating the strengthening of character
education effectively to improve the learning outcomes of
students of grade 4 elementary school.
