Aneka-based asynchronous and synchronous learning design and its evaluation as efforts for improving cognitive ability and positive character of students

Abstract

Quality of cognitive abilities and increased positive character of students in following a learning process during social distancing can still be realized even though the implementation is done from home. This can happen if a good learning design has been formed. Based on that situation, the purpose of this research was to show the existence of innovation in the form of a learning design that combines asynchronous and synchronous learning strategies by inserting ANEKA concepts. The method for developing this learning design was R&D which uses 4D design (Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate). Subjects who were involved in evaluation toward learning design were four experts. The location of this research was conducted at one of the IT Vocational School in the North of Bali region. Data collection techniques used questionnaires. Data analysis was conducted through a comparison technique between the effectiveness percentages of learning design with categorization based on the range of effectiveness percentages. The research results showed the effectiveness level of asynchronous and synchronous learning design based on ANEKA was included in the very high category with a percentage was 89.00%.
