Junior High School Students' Experiences of High Technology Based Learning in Indonesia

Supardi Supardi, Enung Hasanah

Abstract


This study aims to understand the meaning of high technology utilization in learning for early adolescents. High-Technology Based Learning (HTBL) is for a phenomenon in every country today. However, the side effects of the use of high technology in education are troubling, especially for early adolescent junior high school students, who are still labile. This article tries to explore the meaning of HTBL in junior high school in Yogyakarta. The researchers used a phenomenological approach in collecting the data in this study in line with the idea that the people who understand the meaning of an experience are themselves, the subject of the phenomenon. Participants were chosen using purposive sampling with the following criteria: junior high school students, 11-13 years old, living in Yogyakarta and experiencing HTBL at school. The results of the research show that for junior high school students: 1) HTBL is more fun and more accessible; 2) adult guidance is necessary as a means of raising self-awareness. We suggest collaboration between parents and teachers in the implementation of all HTBL processes at school and home since they play significant roles in the use of HTBL for students.
