Abstract

Purpose – Blended Learning in the Aerodrome & Heliport course combines theory and practice flexibly and interactively. Conventional methods are less effective due to the lack of active involvement and limited access to learning materials. This study aims to develop blended learning-based learning materials to improve student competency in the Aerodrome & Heliport course at the Makassar Aviation Polytechnic. In addition, this study was conducted due to the low academic achievement of students, with 20% failing the course.Methodology – The research used the Research and Development (R&D) model. However, only the first three stages are worked on: define, design, and develop. This research involves 24 air transport management diploma program students as respondents and two radio aids to air navigation instructor respondents. Data were collected through survey, interview, observation, and documentation. Assessments from experts on blended Learning and aviation education using qualitative and quantitative analysis methods were conducted to assess the validity of the developed teaching materials.Findings – The study demonstrated that blended Learning considerably raised student proficiency. The methodically created instructional materials received a high validity grade from specialists who rated them as "Very Valid" (Va ≥ 0.80). Additionally, the study discovered that using interactive teaching resources—like video tutorials, simulations, and structured learning modules—helped students comprehend complex ideas.Contribution – On a practical level, this study provides real solutions to address learning challenges in aviation vocational education by combining online and in-person Learning. The teaching materials developed can be used as a model by other similar institutions to design tech-based curricula that meet industry needs. Theoretically, the study deepens our understanding of how effective blended Learning can be in technical education, especially in aviation, by emphasizing the need for flexible instructional design that supports higher-order thinking Skills (HOTS).

Abstract

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to develop a Virtual Reality-based Approach Lighting System (ALS) prototype as a practicum medium for the Visual Landing Aid course in the Airport Technology Study Program at Makassar Aviation Polytechnic. This initiative aims to address the limited accessibility of ALS equipment at Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport, where the system is active and located in the restricted airside area, thereby constraining direct practicum opportunities.Methodology – The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach utilizing the ADDIE model consisting of five stages: (1) Analysis to identify practicum challenges, (2) Design of ALS lamp models and surrounding environment, (3) Development of the prototype using Virtual Reality applications, (4) Implementation through practicum activities, and (5) Evaluation to assess the system’s functionality and effectiveness in enhancing cadets’ learning outcomes.Findings – The study successfully produced a Virtual Reality-based Approach Lighting System Prototype that replicates the real equipment and environment. The evaluation stage demonstrated positive responses from cadets regarding the system’s effectiveness in supporting the Visual Landing Aid course. Specifically, 41.7% strongly agreed, 37.5% agreed, and 20.8% moderately agreed that the VR application improved their understanding and ability to visualize ALS concepts in a realistic context.Contribution – This research contributes to aviation education by providing a safe, innovative, and accessible practicum medium that eliminates the dependency on restricted airport environments. The VR-based ALS prototype enhances cadets’ knowledge, technical competence, and practical understanding of visual landing aids. Furthermore, the study supports the integration of Virtual Reality technology as a modern pedagogical tool in aviation training, aligning with global trends in simulation-based education.
