EDMODO-BASED BLENDED LEARNING MODEL ON NEWS TEXT MATERIALS FOR CLASS VIII

Abstract

This study and development are motivated by the use of internet-based technology that has not been maximized in learning in schools, especially junior high schools. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop a learning model that combines the learning proces directly throught face-to-face online learning through applications, so that researchers develop a blended learning model based on edmodo in learning news text for class VIII SMP. This study uses the research and development (R D) method, with the ADDIE model development procedure, namely the analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation steps. The results of this study indicate that the learning model that has been developed can be categorized as "very feasible". This is evidenced by the average score of 82. The average score obtained from material experts is 87, from media experts is 74, and from teaching experts is 85. Based on this, it can be concludedthat the study and development of this learning model can be a supplement in learning so that students are more active and independent.
