SiGoba - Learning Media Based on Android Applications for Introducing Medicine’s Classes and Functions

Abstract

In this covid-19 era pandemic, people are required to use computer technology to run the wheel of life, including learning something. Internet users, including smartphone users in Indonesia, are more than half of the population. Meanwhile, the body must be protected so that the body’s immunity is not susceptible to disease. If you are already sick, you must immediately be treated with the right medicine. If the use of drugs is not proper, surely the pain will get worse. But there are still many people who do not understand the class and function of drugs as they should. Therefore, this research develops an android-based application called SiGoba, an information system as a learning medium to recognize the class and function of drugs according to the Indonesian Drug Specialist Information (ISO). Drug data used are drugs commonly consumed by Indonesian people to treat minor ailments. This system was built using the waterfall model, with black-box testing. The system test results show that SiGoba has a function as a learning medium for recognizing drug classes and functions. We hope that SiGoba can be a learning media for the community so they can learn about how to use drugs according to their groups and functions, so it does not cause medication wrong. If this happens, it will have an impact on the recovery of the illness.
