IMPLEMENTATION OF MICROSITE LEARNING MEDIA IN THE BLENDED LEARNING MODEL TO IMPROVE STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES

Abstract

The learning outcomes of students in English subjects in the blended learning model remain low because the learning media used are still limited to government textbooks. Along with the development of digital technology, microsite-based learning media have begun to be integrated into the blended learning model. Utilizing microsites within the blended learning model can create a more personalized and adaptive learning environment. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of microsite learning media in the blended learning model to improve student learning outcomes. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of using microsite learning media in the blended learning model to improve student learning outcomes. This study employed the Classroom Action Research (CAR) method, which was implemented in two cycles, each comprising four stages: planning, action, observation, and reflection. The data collection methods employed in this study included documentation, observation, and testing. The subjects of this study were 25 students of Package C Class X at SKB Grobogan in 2024/2025. The study results indicate that implementing microsite teaching media in the blended learning model can improve student learning outcomes, as evidenced by an increase in learning completion rates, with the percentage of learning completion in Cycle I at 32%, rising to 84% in Cycle II. From collecting documentation, conducting interviews, and analyzing test results, microsite learning media in blended learning effectively improve student learning outcomes.
