Abstract

Nontext book are books which are not used directly as a book to study particular subject in educational institution. One of nontext books is a supplementary book. Genetics course is a course taught in Biology Education Program of Jember University. There are several problems in the lecture based on the analysis of teaching materials needs. These problems are such as the source of many teaching materials that use English, so the students get difficult in understanding the material, students are looking forward to the material with a simple language and easy to understand, and having interesting illustrations. The purpose of this study is to produce a supplementary book of Genetics in Biology Education Program in University of Jember. The supplementary book which was being developed is a research-based supplementary book with development model R&D Borg and Gall. The supplementary book was validated by a material expert, a development expert, and tested on a small group of 15 students. The result of material validation showed the value of 81,39%, developing validation 97,96%, and the result of reading test 73,66%. Overall, the supplementary book is valid enough with a little revision. The revised book is based on suggestions and comments provided by validators and test of small group of students.
