Abstract

The advancement of digital technology has changed education, so innovative learning tools are needed that can improve critical thinking skills. This study uses a descriptive approach that aims to describe the validity of an interactive flipbook-based modern physics e-book in supporting critical thinking skills. The e-book was developed through structured content design, integration of interactive multimedia elements such as video, animation, and simulation, and the addition of exploratory exercises to support active learning. Validation was carried out by experts in the fields of physics, multimedia learning, and educational technology. The content and multimedia aspects were assessed using Aiken's V, with a validity score of 0.93 for both aspects, categorizing the e-book as valid. Validator feedback highlighted the effectiveness of the interactive features and suggested minor revisions to improve navigation and clarity. The results showed that this interactive flipbook-based e-book effectively supports modern physics learning by presenting interesting and relevant materials, in line with the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka curriculum. This e-book addresses the limitations of traditional teaching materials by integrating dynamic and flexible features that encourage critical thinking skills. This study contributes by presenting an innovative learning tool that has been tested for validity, combining technological advances with educational needs. Further research is recommended to evaluate the impact of e-books on learning outcomes and critical thinking skills in a wider-scale implementation.
