Abstract


Abstract. The development of technology has a very wide impact in various aspects of life, as well as in educational world. The integration of technology in learning will greatly support learning, especially independent learning during the Covid-19 pandemic that has hit the world today. Android was one of the most popular mobile phone operating systems that can be used to facilitate mobile learning (m-learning). The purpose of this study was to develop valid and practical android-based m-learning media which is applicable for high school students. The development of this media follows the ADDIE model with five- stages progression, namely Analyze, Design, Develope, Implement, and Evaluate. The results showed that the m-learning media that used the android application (BioApss: Plant Tissue) was declared valid by expert validators with a validity level of 4.56. The media practicality test based on the responses of teachers and students at SMA Negeri 6 Maros shows that the BioApss: Plant Tissue was practical with 86.16% of respondents giving a positive response. This shows that the developed m-learning media is suitable to support independent learning, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Keywords: mobile learning, learning media, android, independent learning.
