Abstract

The purpose of this study is to improve the competence of students in the field of visual basic programming through project-based learning. The low level of students’ understanding and lack of skills related to visual basic programming are obstacles faced in facing the Industrial Revolution 4.0. The study was conducted with research subjects of 48 students in polytechnic of diploma III program of Negeri Media Kreatif-Medan. This research is a Research and Development with ADDIE development method (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation). Data analysis is by observation technique and processed descriptively. Based on the results of the research conducted, the implementation of the project based learning model is able to improve the competence of students in the field of visual basic programming so that their expertise is in line with the needs of industry 4.0. Other findings from this study indicate that there is an increase in creativity and critical thinking of students in solving problems in visual basic learning using desktop-based visual basic programming tools. © 2019 IJSTR.
