Use of Interactive Multimedia to Support Meaningful Learning for Vocational High School Students in the Pandemic Era

ABSTRACT

The covid-19 pandemic has changed the entire life order of government and society. Including also having an impact on vocational high schools, learning that was originally carried out in schools now has to take place with distance learning. This study examines the effect of interactive multimedia to enhance meaningful learning in the context of technical and vocational education and training schools. This research method uses a literature review, namely by finding sources that are relevant to the object of research. Even though learning is currently being carried out using distance learning, of course, teachers are still required to provide quality learning to achieve meaningful learning. The limitations of distance learning are a challenge for vocational high schools because the implementation of learning in vocational high schools is mostly carried out by work practices both in schools, places of business, and industry. Thus, the development and use of educational technology become important. One of the existing technologies is interactive multimedia. Interactive multimedia is a learning media that combines text, animated video, images, sound, and evaluation in learning media. © 2021 ACM.
