ScEd-ALS as ubiquitous learning in science

Abstract

The use of technology in education can be carried out through various telematics networks. The use of hypermedia or web (e-learning) and computing on mobile allows the subject matter to be distributed to students quickly, not limited by space and time. Independent learning is possible to occur. This paper aims to inform the framework of curriculum development at the Science Education Adaptive Learning System (ScEd-ALS) version of the smartphone that supports Ubiquitous learning. The research method used is development research. The research instruments included: observation sheets, checklist sheets, and VARK questionnaire. The results of the study: The ScEd-ALS curriculum development framework that accommodates the VARK Flemming learning style preferences of students. This curriculum framework is the foundation for the development of the smartphone version of the ScEd-ALS media prototype. This research was validated by material experts and media experts and was declared worthy of being tested. The curriculum development framework in this media has provided the right teaching materials, and it is easier to create a new environment that adapts to the learning style preferences of students.
