The research data was obtained through documentation, interviews, questionnaires, validation sheets and learning achievement tests after a product trial had been carried out with 2 classes, namely the experimental class and the control class. The data were then analyzed using the t-test technique and the relative effectiveness test. The results of the independent t-test obtained t value -5.551 and showed significant differencewith p 0.000. The significance value was smaller than α value (0.05). This means that there is an average difference between the control class and the experimental class. The calculation of the relative effectiveness obtained a value of 57.24%, so it can be concluded that the textbook developed have a relative effectiveness level of 57.24% compared to the previous textbook.
