VALIDATION OF HEUTAGOGY PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING MODEL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTED BY APPLICATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Abstract

This study aimed at developing Problem-Based Learning into application-assisted
Heutagogy Problem Based Learning (HPBL). This learning model is based on the
concept of self-determined learning and application is the supporting tool helping the
students in the self-determined learning process that certainly aims to provide direct
experiences and improve the students’ understanding and mastery of the discussion topic
for the course of decision support system, thus it is expected that implementing this
learning model can improve the students’ competence in problem-solving (Problem
Solving Skill). The result of developing the Heutagogy Problem Based Learning model
assisted by application management system (HPBL - AMS) in the course of Decision
Support System that would be used in conducting learning consisted of 7 (seven) syntax,
namely 1), students’ orientation to the problem, 2). Organizing the students, 3).
Conducting Web Learning, 4). Defining problems, 5). Alternative Design for ProblemSolving, 6). Problem dissemination, 7). Problem-solving Assessment. The products are in
the form of a learning model book, applications, application guide, and learning set that
are valid.
