Abstract

Today learning in schools is starting to be adapted to the development of information technology, resulting in changes and shifts in the educational paradigm [1] This needs to be done so that the learning process does not seem less interesting, monotonous and boring so that it will hinder the transfer of knowledge [2]. At the beginning of 2020, the spread and transmission of the Corona Virus was increasingly spreading throughout the world. Rapid and massive transmission resulted in system changes in all aspects, both from social, economic, and educational aspects. Indonesia is no exception. To avoid the spread of this pandemic, various efforts have been made by the government to minimize the acceleration of the movement of the corona virus. Since the pandemic, the learning system in the world of education has undergone very significant changes. The government has explicitly issued a decision to implement distance learning by simultaneously utilizing technology so that the teaching and learning process continues. The big obstacle faced by most schools in North Maluku is that online learning support facilities are not yet ready. So that the majority of schools use teleconference applications as a medium to support distance learning. This research is intended to design an application that supports blended learning model learning. Blended learning is a learning method that combines two or more methods and approaches in learning to achieve process goals.
