Abstract
The purpose of this research is to explore the students’ perception about the implementation of blended learning approach (BLA) in inclusive education course. Thirty (30) students participated in this research. The data collection was done by open interview to know students’ perception about the implementation of blended learning. The interview results were analyzed using context analysis techniques. Based on the data analysis, there are four catego-ries of students' attention, namely: display of learning management system (LMS); accessibility; the benefits and sustainability. Student perceptions of each category are: the LMS display on the web of 50.53% is appropriate and simple, but must be modified to make it easier for students to understand. The negative perception about accessibility of 69.57% indicates that internet access to the web is still unstable and slow. Positive perception about BLA benefit of 66.94% indicates good benefits to students especially in terms of adding learn-ing experiences, knowledge, variations of learning models and learning more flexible and independent. A positive perception of BLA sustainability of 66.18% indicates should be continued because it can increase students' learning interest, learn more modern, flexible and independent.
Highlights
The development of the internet and communications technology has grown very swiftly and has a massive impact in various aspects, including in education
Display on the learning management systems (LMS) that contains the profile of the course, the number of meetings in which there is content that must be learned by the student is the main view which must be designed by the team of lecturers so that teacher students’ (TS) can understand the learning model, especially the content of the lecture material to study
The results of student perceptions of blended learning approach (BLA) can be concluded based on four categories namely the appearance of LMS on the web, accessibility, benefits of BLA and sustainability of BLA
Summary
The development of the internet and communications technology has grown very swiftly and has a massive impact in various aspects, including in education. As information and computer technology (ICT) evolves, various learning approaches that have developed based on the internet, web or e-learning provide an alternative for the implementation of learning to become more varied, inevitably there are still problems to solve. The college community consisting of students, faculty and staff are people who understand rapidly the development of ICT which is widely applied in learning. BLA provides opportunities for teachers and students to collaborate and interact with each other in education so that learning experiences can be obtained properly. Use of BLA is one approach that combines face-to-face learning with online with the principle of face-to-face oral communication with integrated online communication optimally so that students get an in-depth learning experience, unique according to the intended purpose [11]
