Designing a Hybrid E-Dian Application to Increase the Effectiveness of IPAS Learning in Elementary Schools: Web and Android-based System Design Approach

Abstract

At the elementary level, especially in elementary schools, a strong understanding of the learning material being taught is very important for students’ academic and cognitive development. One of the main subjects in the elementary school curriculum is Natural and Social Sciences (in Indonesia it is called IPAS). To design more effective science learning experiences, sophisticated and user-friendly assessment tools are necessary. In the digital era, technology-based applications can be an efficient and effective solution. Therefore, this research designed an innovative project entitled designing a hybrid E-Dian application to increase the effectiveness of IPAS learning in elementary schools. The E-Dian hybrid application was designed and developed using the prototyping method as a design approach. The prototyping method is an approach to product or system development that involves creating an initial model or prototype that can be used to test and illustrate the desired idea, function, or design before creating the final product. This research aims to design a hybrid E-Dian application using the prototyping method. The development process involves designing a system based on user needs, which is then tested according to the system design. The test results show that the E-dian application system design has been proven to be good and in accordance with the specified needs.
