Abstract
Abstract. This study aims to develop teaching materials based on the local wisdom of Indragiri Hilir District, Riau Province, namely "Menongkah Kerang" carried out by the Duano tribe. Teaching materials developed in mollusca material and will contain questions of classification abilities and use a simple determination key made by the author. The research methodology uses the Quasi Experiment method. The study design used quasi-experimental pre-test post-test two group design. Pretest is done before the lesson begins and the posttest is done after the teaching and learning activities. The study uses two classes, one control class only uses textbooks that are in school and one experimental class uses instructional materials that have been developed. The validation results from the three lecturers were very good and showed that the teaching material was valid and could be used. Based on the results of the pretest and posttest the students classification abilities increased, as evidenced by the posttest results of the average student increasing. In conclusion, this teaching material is very feasible to use in learning.
