Mengembangkan (Pembelajaran) Blended Learning Dengan Sistem Lingkungan Pembelajaran Virtual (Vle) Di Ptkin

Abstract

Recently there has been a great interest invested in maximizing higher education students’ knowledge retention as well as increasing students learning experience using web technologies. Many higher education institutions upgrade their learning facilities by integrating virtual learning system to their education provisions. Educational content management system is now a primary requirement in higher education provisions. However, as for the context of Indonesian higher education, upgrading the learning system may mean a total change of the way classes are delivered. Most of Indonesian higher education teachers are those with minimal exposure of virtual technological use in classrooms. Although these teachers are familiar with the common internet tools especially the electronic mail system and internet social media, they are not yet familiar with managing a content management system. Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) ar-Raniry is one of Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Islam Negeri (PTKIN) that share similar context. This study was conducted to explore UIN Ar-Raniry teachers’ readiness in delivering blended learning using Virtual Learning Environment. 124 teachers were participating in this research. The index of technological acceptance is relatively high (3.78). However, on the contrary digital technology use related to delivering lecture is relatively low. The use of e-mail and facebook is relatively popular among these teachers. The study found that teachers are interested in using more convenient digital tools in their classes if the university supports the trainings and assigns educational technology consultant to help them establish the virtual class and help with their technical troubles.

The essence of Blended Learning is to increase interaction between students and lecturers and increase student responsibility for their learning experience [21]. In its application, blended learning requires a learning management system such as e-learning for better classroom management and to provide more effective experiences for students [24].…”

Offline or online?: EFL students’ perceptions on working in face-to-face and virtual learning modes

“…The majority of the students participated in this study preferred to have blended learning as it offers a facilitative environment which helps them engage into face-toface learning activities combined with technology-based learning at the same time. This combination is often believed to deliver more meaningful learning experience as learning activities can be structured in a more integrated manner (Yusny & Yasa, 2019) and facilitates varied learning options (Fadde & Vu, 2014).…”

Effectiveness and Interactivity on the Use of Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) in Scouting Course

“…Adapun capaian dari mata kuliah ini yakni mahasiswa diharapkan mampu menjelaskan/mengimplementasikan ilmu tentang kepemudaan dalam kehidupan berorganisasi, tetapi juga mampu menjelaskan/ mengimplementasikan/ mengembangkan materi pelajaran Pendidikan Jasmani dan Olahraga menggunakan metode Kepramukaan sesuai dengan usia/kelas. Berdasar pada capaian tersebut, maka disusunlah materi pembelajaran Kepemudaan dan (Julaeha, 2011;Mosquera, 2017;Sudiana & Fatah, 2017) serta integrasi TIK dengan dunia pendidikan (Ali, 2013;Choeda et al, 2016;Yusny & Ibnu Yasa, 2019). Bertolak dari hal tersebut, maka urgensi dari keefektifan dan interaktivitas pembelajaran melalui VLE ditilik dari persepsi mahasiswa menjadi fokus penelitian ini.…”
