Abstract


The evaluation and analysis of the practicality of Android-based courseware in enhancing vocational students’ understanding of electrical circuits (EC) is the primary focus of this research. A quantitative survey-based research approach was employed, utilizing the Practicality Assessment Instrument to evaluate the practicality level of the Android-based courseware among students. The collected data will undergo statistical analysis using descriptive analysis techniques. The practicality assessment results for each aspect will be calculated as a percentage and grouped into various categories. The findings reveal a high practicality level across different aspects, namely 90.19% for Availability and Accessibility, 89.88% for Performance and Responsiveness, 86.96% for Content Compatibility and Completeness, and 90.06% for Functionality and Resource Utilization. These outcomes demonstrate that the Android-based courseware serves as a highly practical learning medium for enhancing the understanding of electrical circuits. The integration of Android-based technology in the educational environment has proven to be effective and beneficial. These findings offer valuable insights for educators, instructional designers, and stakeholders to enhance modern learning environments. Future research can further investigate the impact of Android-based courseware on learning outcomes and explore additional practical dimensions to comprehensively evaluate its effectiveness.
