Flipped classrooms have been extensively used by many educators all over the world and are being seen as an alternative to the traditional classroom-based teaching-learning practices. As for traditional classrooms, face-to-face learning has not brought the personalization of learning capacity, time, attitude, behavior and interests to learners and has not exposed them to experimental activities. The flipped classrooms, on the other hand, enable students to be flexible in their learning and offer more time to go through videos, lectures posted on the Internet, which helps students to acquire the lessons through online learning systems. Flipped classrooms help create environment for more interaction between learners and instructors/facilitators, especially by creating the face-to-face conversations more interactive. However, teaching using flipped classrooms requires adequate additional resources such as; the effective online learning systems, databases, appropriate learning contents and methods, plan, presentations (in various forms like PowerPoint, word, scrom, video, audio) and most importantly minimum technical knowledge for both learners and instructors to use varieties of tools. This paper presents the construction of an environment supporting students to take part in an online activity before and after face-to-face interaction and organization of experimental teaching with the process of learning in groups based on the model of flipped classrooms to facilitate active learning. The quantitative results at the end of the course showed that the flipped learning is highly preferred and useful pedagogical approach when compared to those traditional methods that fostered better learning attitude and behaviors.

ABSTRAKPenerapan e-learning merupakan salah satu inovasi teknologi pembelajaran yang mengintegrasikan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi dengan konten pelajaran. Meskipun e-learning bisa digunakan secara mandiri oleh siswa, namun eksistensi guru menjadi sangat berarti sebagai orang dewasa yang berfungsi memberi dukungan dan mendampingi siswa dalam proses pembelajaran. Oleh karena itu, model pembelajaran yang menggabungkan (blending) metode face to face learning dengan e-learning secara integratif dan sistematis akan membuat proses pembelajaran menjadi lebih bermakna. Kejadian virus Corona yang mewabah di Indonesia membuat situasi belajar diarahkan ke online learning.  Akan tetapi faktanya penggunaan teknologi masih sangat minim ditemukan di sekolah. Hal yang sama juga ditemukan di sekolah Mitra. MA Cahaya Harapan merupakan sekolah mitra untuk tempat workshop pengabdian ini, dimana kebanyakan guru belum dengan maksimal memanfaatkan penggunaan ICT ini pada proses pembelajaran di kelas. Tahap-tahapn pengabdian ini meliputi tahap persiapan, pelaksanaan, evaluasi dan pendampingan. Tujuan workshop  pendampingan dan pelatihan ini adalah meningkatkan kemampuan guru-guru  dalam pembelajaran blended learning berbasis LMS Moodle  di era post Covid-19. Peserta dalam PKM ini terdiri dari  25 orang dan dilaksanakan selama tiga hari dan dilanjutkan pendampingan selama dua pekan berturut-turut. Berdasarkan hasil angket kepuasaan sebesar 28% peningkatan kemampuan peserta dari sebelum pelatihan. Seluruh peserta terlihat sangat antusias dalam mengikuti program pelatihan. Hal ini bisa dilihat dari kehadiran seluruh peserta mulai dari awal kegiatan sampai akhir kegiatan. Peserta mampu membuat dan mendesain pembelajaran blended learning berbasis LMS Moodle.Kata Kunci : Blended Learning, LMS Moodle, Post Covid 19  ABSTRACTThe application of e-learning is one of the learning technology innovations that integrate information and communication technology with lesson content. Although e-learning can be used independently by students, the existence of teachers is very meaningful as adults who function to support and assist students in the learning process. Therefore, a learning model that combines (blending) the face to face learning method with e-learning in an integrative and systematic manner will make the learning process more meaningful. The outbreak of the Corona virus in Indonesia has directed the learning situation to online learning. However, the fact is that the use of technology is still very minimal in schools. The same thing was found in the Mitra school. MA Cahaya Harapan is a partner school for this PKM workshop, where most teachers have not maximally utilized the use of ICT in the learning process in the classroom. The stages of this workshop include the stages of preparation, implementation, evaluation and mentoring. The purpose of this mentoring and training workshop is to improve the abilities of teachers in Moodle LMS-based blended learning in the post-Covid-19 era. Participants in this PKM consisted of 25 people and was held for three days and continued with mentoring for two consecutive weeks. Based on the results of the satisfaction questionnaire, there was a 28% increase of the participants ability after joining the training. All participants seemed very enthusiastic in participating the training program. This can be seen from the attendance of all participants from the start of the activity to the end of the activity. Participants are able to create and design Moodle LMS based blended learningKeywords: Blended Learning, LMS Moodle, Post Covid 19

[This Proceedings paper was revised and published in the 2019 issue of the journal Issues in Informing Science and Information Technology, Volume 16] Aim/Purpose: The flipped classroom approach is one of the most popular active learning approaches. This paper explores the effectiveness of a new pedagogy, known as FOCUSED, for postgraduate students. Background: The flipped classroom approach is a trendy blended learning pedagogy which capitalizes on the flexibility of online learning and the stimulating nature of face-to-face discussion. This article describes a pilot study involving post-graduate students who experienced the flipped classroom approach in one of their courses. Methodology: In additional to online activities, students adopted a newly learned approach to solve a related problem that was given by another group of students during classes. Quantitative data were collected from pre- and post-tests for both self-learned online materials and group discussion during classes so that the effectiveness of the flipped classroom pedagogy could be examined from the perspective of a holistic learning experience. Findings: It was found that the average scores for the post-test for the self-learned online video were much higher than for pre-test, even though the post-tests for both online and face-to-face learning were higher than the respective pre-tests. The qualitative data collected at the end of the flipped classroom activities further confirmed the value of the flipped classroom approach. Even though students could self-learn, more students valued peer interactions in the classroom more than the flexibility of online learning.

Identifying the positive attributes of students and instructors in the online environment will contribute to the understanding of how we can enhance the learning experience for the student and the teaching experience for the instructor. This article will assist students and instructors in understanding the differences that may be experienced in the online environment versus the face-to-face environment and provide the opportunity to consider whether online learning and/or teaching is a “good fit” for them. Understanding why students and/or instructors might choose the online environment will also assist administrators in developing successful, quality online programs that enrich the experiences for both students and instructors.
