Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find out the usability and acceptability of web-based learning. This is important because these two variables are a prerequisite for the success of any web-based instruction. The research results reported in this article are the results of the initial steps of R & D in the development of the flipped classroom model of instruction using the Borg and Gall procedure at Universitas Negeri Padang. The usability of the WBI has measured with a useability scale that consists of three indicators namely: (1) the ownership of mobile devices by lecturers and students, (2) the availability of facilities owned by UNP, and (3) the willingness of lecturers to use and develop this technology in learning. The acceptability of the WBI was measured by using the agreement scale consisting of four components namely: (1) the students’ knowledge of the advantages of the web-based instruction (WBI), (2) the benefits gained in the use of the WBI, (3) the interest of students and lecturers towards the WBI features, and (4) difficulties experienced by students in learning and lecturers in managing to learn using the WBI. This research included 225 students and 25 lectures as respondents. From the survey, it was found that usability is whether viewed from the tools owned by the students, the facilities owned by the university, and the ability of the lecturer to develop mobile-based learning is adequate.
