Blended learning with schoology in learning macromedia flash-based instructional media

Abstract

Macromedia Flash, one of ICT program, is an animation program that can be explored to design instructional media. However, time allocation in the class is not sufficient to facilitate students for understanding how to design and work with Macromedia Flash. Blended learning is carried out to facilitate student learning in the classroom and online class. Online class is using Schoology as learning platform so that students can learn anytime and anywhere. This study aims to describe how the process of blended learning using Schoology in teaching Macromedia Flash-based instructional media for mathematics education students of Universitas PGRI Palembang and how students' responses. Qualitative and quantitative descriptive research method is used. Data was analyzed from documentation, questionnaire, and interviewing. The results show that blended learning using Schoology can be employed by students to learn, practice, and discuss material of Macromedia Flash-based instructional media from inside and outside class. It also facilitated students to collect their task. Most of students can produce Macromedia Flash-based instructional creatively. Students give very good response to the implementation of blended learning using Schoology about 82.19%.
