The objective of this research is to develop STEAM-based E-LKPD (Electronic Student Worksheets) that is feasible, practical, and effective for use in enhacing students’ learning outcomes in science learning. This study utilized development research with the Borg & Gall development model. The instruments used in this research included learning needs observation sheets, validation sheets for media, content, and design, feedback sheets for teacher and student response, and learning outcome assesment sheets. The research results show: (1) material validation scored an average of 98.06%, categorized as very feasible, (2) media validation scored an average of 84.18%, categorized as very feasible, (3) design validation scored an average of 97.11%, categorized as very feasible, (4) individual trial scored 91.50% and small group trials 97.75%, categorized as very feasible, (5) field trial scored 97.75% categorized as very feasible. Furthermore, the experimental results using STEAM-based E-LKPD in the experimental class obtained an average learning outcome of 83, while the control class using LKPD published by Kemdikbud obtained learning outcomes of 78.5. Normality and homogeneity tests showed that the research data has been declared normal and homogeneous. Independent samples t-test result showed a significance value of t < 0.05 (0.024 < 0.05), therefore H0 was rejected and H1 was accepted. This means that the STEAM-based E-LKPD product developed is effective for improving student learning outcomes in science learning. Thus, the STEAM-based E-LKPD is very feasible, practical, and effective for improving science learning outcomes. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2025.
