Abstract
The research was motivated by low mathematical communication skills of students and
the lack of variety of teaching materials that can equip students to face the challenges of
the 21st century including load activities to support mathematical communication skills.
Based on these, this research aims to: (1) produce mathematics students worksheets (LKS)
with STEM approach that supports mathematical communication skills of junior high
school student and suitable for use in the mathematics learning. This development re-
search was carried out by adopting the ADDIE Research & Development model. The results
showed that: (1) Mathematics Student Worksheets with the STEM (Science, Technology
and Engineering and Mathematics) Approach that Supported Junior High School Students
Mathematical Communication Skills that were feasible were used in terms of validation
test results by experts with a percentage of eligibility reaching 84.77% is at the interval ̅ >
4.20 which is 4.23 with the category very good; and the quality of worksheets based on
student and teacher responses shows the criteria of practical with a percentage value of
them are 75% and 85%.

Abstrak
Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh rendahnya keterampilan komunikasi matematika siswa
dan kurangnya berbagai bahan ajar yang dapat membekali siswa untuk menghadapi tan-
tangan abad ke-21 termasuk kegiatan untuk mendukung keterampilan komunikasi matemat-
ika. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk: (1) menghasilkan Lembar Kerja Siswa matematika (LKS)
dengan pendekatan STEM yang mendukung keterampilan komunikasi matematika siswa
SMP dan cocok untuk digunakan dalam pembelajaran matematika. Penelitian pengem-
bangan ini dilakukan dengan mengadopsi model penelitian dan pengembangan ADDIE. Hasil
penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: (1) LKS Matematika dengan Pendekatan STEM (Sains,
Teknologi dan Teknik dan Matematika) layak digunakan dengan hasil tes validasi oleh para
ahli dengan persentase kelayakan mencapai 84,77% berada pada interval ̅ > 4,20 yaitu 4,23
dengan kategori sangat baik; dan kualitas LKS berdasarkan respons siswa dan guru menun-
jukkan kriteria praktek dengan nilai persentase sebesar 75% dan 85%.
