Development of Learning Tools Using Remote IoT Labs with Blended Learning Method in The Department of Engineering Education

Abstract Learning is a process that involves educators, students, teaching materials, learning resources, learning media, and methods. The conventional method, whose main source of knowledge is only from educators, is considered to be less effective if it is the only source of knowledge transfer to students. The boring learning process, the media used in Digital Electronics courses is a simulator, the features presented in the simulator are less interesting. So it was appointed a research study on the development of the IoT Remote Lab learning tool with Blended Learning Digital Electronics Subjects in accordance with the Industrial Revolution era 4.0. This study aims to determine the stages and feasibility of developing the IoT Remote Lab learning tool with a valid, practical, and effective Blended Learning method in the Department of Electronics Education Faculty of Engineering Universitas Negeri Makassar (FT-UNM). The research method used by Research and Development (R&D) with the 4D development model (1), (2) planning, (3) development, and (4) distribution. The results of this study indicate that the Remote Lab IoT learning tool with the Blended Learning method has a very valid category to use. Got a response from students who said it was very practical in its use and the results of student test scores after implementation had increased. It was concluded that the data stated that the Remote Lab IoT learning device with the Blended Learning method that had been developed was declared valid/feasible to use as well as practical and efficient in its use.
