Abstract

Motivated by the need to understand the role of digital tools such as Moodle in foreign language learning, this study explores the acceptance and use of Moodle by students in the German Language Education Study Program at Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI). Using a mixed-method approach, we examined students’ acceptance of Virtuelles Klassenzimmer (VKZ), a Moodle-based e-learning platform, within the technology acceptance model (TAM) framework. 246 students were surveyed using a structured questionnaire encompassing both quantitative and qualitative components. Quantitative data aligned with TAM constructs (perceived usefulness (PU), perceived ease of use (PEOU), attitude toward using (ATU), and behavioral intention (BI)) were analyzed using mean and standard deviation (SD) values. Qualitative data from open-ended questions on VKZ’s advantages and disadvantages were examined using thematic analysis. Results indicate that students generally responded positively to using Moodle in German classrooms, appreciating its benefits in enhancing language learning. However, concerns about Moodle’s usability and mobile compatibility were also identified. This study proposes improvements in Moodle’s design and functionality to address these issues, emphasizing its potential in language education. Future research should explore these findings in diverse educational contexts to enhance the application of digital tools in language learning.

Abstract

Hasil observasi menunjukkan salah satu kendala dilapangan adalah bahwa siswa masih memiliki pemahaman yang minim mengenai bentuk soal dan format uji kompetensi Bahasa Jerman tingkat A2 yang diselenggarakan secara online. Salah satu upaya yang dapat dilakukan untuk mengatasi kendala tersebut adalah dengan memberikan kesempatan pada para siswa untuk melakukan simulasi latihan ujian dengan memanfaatkan Learning Management System (LMS) untuk simulasi ujian kompetensi bahasa Jerman merupakan salah satu langkah yang tepat dalam konteks ini. Program Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PkM) ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan persiapan siswa SMA di Tasikmalaya dalam menghadapi ujian kompetensi bahasa Jerman tingkat A2 secara daring. Melalui pendekatan blended learning yang mencakup pelatihan sinkronus dan asinkronus, peserta diberikan pemahaman mendalam tentang format soal online, strategi menjawab soal, dan penggunaan platform Moodle. Hasil penilaian menunjukkan bahwa pelatihan ini berhasil meningkatkan pengetahuan siswa tentang format soal online dan format soal secara keseluruhan. Selain itu, siswa memiliki persepsi positif terhadap kebermanfaatan pelatihan, kualitas pelatihan, platform pelatihan, materi pelatihan, dan pemateri pelatihan. Mayoritas siswa memberikan penilaian "Sangat Memuaskan" untuk kualitas keseluruhan pelatihan. Program ini memiliki potensi untuk membantu siswa lebih siap dan percaya diri dalam menghadapi Olimpiade Bahasa Jerman tingkat provinsi di masa depan, dan mendukung pengembangan kemampuan bahasa Jerman di tingkat SMA.
