Education 4.0 focuses on improving 21st century skills, one of which is science process skills, especially communication skills on Pteridophyta material. However, the existing DKL as practicum support is not optimal. The purpose of this study was to analyze the quality of DKL on pteridophyta (ferns) materials used in schools in recent curricula covering aspects of curriculum relevance, competence, and knowledge construction. Then a trial was conducted on one of the DKL. The findings from the analysis and trials became the basis for the reconstruction of Pteridophyta DKL. The results of the research show that the existing DKL still has not developed higher-order thinking skills, and there are still few concepts formed. The results of the DKL reconstruction use a phenetic approach to make it more effective and representative according to the demands of the applicable KD and develop communication skills.
