Development of Virlenda-Based Blended Learning with Problem Based Learning Strategy for Problem-Solving Ability for Students

Abstract

This study aims to develop a Virlenda-based blended learning model. The products that will be produced develop learning tools with problem-based learning strategies, problem-based evaluation tools, supplements for lecturers and students and the Virlenda learning management system as a forum for carrying out the learning process. The results of the research are design experts with 85.8% validation percentage, material experts with 86.5 validation percentages, media experts with 87.7% validation percentages, 86.5% validation percentages for colleagues. In the small group trial the percentage of responses was 82.7%, for the medium group trial the percentage of responses was 89.6%, while in the large group trial the percentage was 92%. The results of the products developed can be used as guidelines in the learning process, so that products can be mass-produced to be distributed to universities. In the field group trial comparing the old model and the new model, it got 0.458 for Google Classroom and 0.916 for Virlenda, so Virlenda is significantly better than Google Classroom.
