Implementation of Digital-Based Learning Systems to Increase Student Learning Interest
The digital-based learning system is a modern approach that combines technology with the teaching and learning process to create a more flexible, interactive, and adaptive learning environment. Therefore, this research aims to analyze the supporting and inhibiting factors as well as the impact of implementing digital learning on students' interest in studying at SMK Al Masturiyah Langkaplancar. The type of research used in this thesis is qualitative research with a case study approach. The subjects of this research are the principal or vice principal of curriculum, teachers, and students. In data collection, this research utilizes observation, documentation, interviews, and literature study. The data analysis techniques used are data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Research results show that digital-based learning at SMK Al Masturiyah Langkaplancar has the potential to enhance students' learning interest through technology integration strategies, innovative methods such as blended learning and flipped classroom, personalized learning, and technology-based evaluation. However, there are several obstacles such as limited infrastructure (lack of Wi-Fi network availability), insufficient teacher understanding of digital methods, and uneven student readiness in adapting to technology-based learning patterns. Analysis based on David Easton's Systems Theory shows that the success of digital learning implementation depends on the integration among input (curriculum and human resources), process (strategy and media), output (learning interest), and feedback (continuous evaluation). Meanwhile, Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory highlights that student learning interest increases when basic needs such as safety, esteem, and self-actualization are met within the learning system. This research concludes that digital learning at SMK Al Masturiyah is not yet optimal, but has great potential if supported by increased human resource capacity, infrastructure improvement, and adaptive as well as humanistic learning approaches.
