Community radio-based blended learning model: A promising learning model in remote area during pandemic era

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic is a big challenge for education worldwide because education has to be done virtually to stop the spread of the COVID-19. The problem is that there are students who live in areas far from cities, while learning in an interconnected world should be done virtually. Diverse geographical conditions in Indonesia consisting of mountains, lowlands, highlands, and valleys and some areas that are far away from cities make students difficult to connect to the internet and thus, virtual teaching is challenging. These areas are often referred to as remote areas. So far, the Indonesian government's approach to dealing with learning difficulties in remote areas is vague. This research aims to construct a theoretical learning framework that can be used to facilitate distance learning in remote areas in Indonesia. This research proposes a developmental theory of alternative learning in remote areas through the integrative literature review. In this research, the theoretical framework evolved out of the review of existing research on community radio, blended learning, transformative education, and critical pedagogy. This research yields a theoretical framework regarding the community radio-based blended learning model that contributes as a promising alternative learning solution in remote areas. It is inferred that this learning model would be a promising learning model in remote areas during unpredictable situations such as in the pandemic era.

Pengaruh Model Pembelajaran PBL terhadap Hasil Belajar Senam Lantai Ditinjau dari Minat Belajar Peserta Didik

“…Model pembelajaran merupakan pembelajaran yang melibatkan siswa untuk bekerja secara aktif untuk mencapai tujuan bersama (Rahmayani et al, 2019;Wahyudi & Hartati, 2015). Model pembelajaran akan memberikan siswa kesempatan yang lebih banyak untuk melakukan aktivitas yang menyenangkan melalui bentuk interaksi dan kerjasama, seperti melakukan penemuan yang dilakukan dengan percobaan, sehingga kegiatan siswa cenderung untuk mencari tahu tentang prinsip konsep pengetahuan, bukan menunggu diberikan oleh guru (Diah Purwati et al, 2019;Indra et al, 2021;Widoretno & Dwiastuti, 2019).…”

Sapen Radio and TV Programs as Supporting Media During Covid-19 Distance Learning

“…The use of the radio made it easier for the listeners to listen to the radio broadcasts anywhere and anytime. Community radio-based blended learning utilized radio networks for learning activities [20]. The implementation of learning through this media could be carried out by collaborating between radio and teachers, with students, and parents.…”

Mobile Learning Application: Effect of Learning Readiness and Community Learning Toward Technology Management and Mobile Learning

“…An application of mobile learning in which there is a very important analytical process that will determine the next development step [25]. Mobile learning readiness and technology management are grouped into six factors, namely (1) student readiness (2) teacher readiness (3) infrastructure (4) management support (5) school culture (6) face-to-face learning tendencies [26].…”
