This study used a 4-D model; defining, designing, developing, and disseminating. First, it was prepared with 47 opened-ended questions, and then it was validated by two experts (Physics and Biology) to find out content validity value and inter-rater reliability. The next stage was arranged an empirical test to 103 elementary school teachers in Surakarta, Indonesia by stratified purposive sampling. The data were analyzed using content validity formula, a measure of Agreement Kappa, Pearson's Correlation, Cronbach's alpha, and difficulty index.
