Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the learning environment at all levels of education. Online learning has been running for more than a year. This makes all students must be able to adapt to the learning method as much as possible. Especially for Electrical Engineering students who should have practicum activities in learning Analog Electronics courses. Due to limited access to the lab, the practicum activities for this course are simulated on a computer. In the remote practicum process, students need to install the application and its environment. This learning becomes an obstacle when students cannot do the installation properly, especially for students who do not have adequate personal computer specifications. The use of Virtual Machine (VM) Collaboration as an alternative step to overcome these problems by giving computer access rights to students. Computers that have installed applications that are used for Analog Electronics practicum and assignments. Thus accelerating the initial setup and learning activities can run more focused on increasing student competence. The design of VM media has four steps as follows: 1) identifying laboratory activities, 2) exploring platforms and tools, 3) creating classwork/assignments, and 4) evaluating the media learning. The results of this research are in the form of a practicum job sheet and a web server as an information center and coordinating the use of VM Collaboration. In further research, to increase the use of VM Collaboration, it can be integrated with student access such as SIAKAD. This makes it easier for students to access computers virtually and is more flexible. © 2021 IEEE.
