PENGEMBANGAN MEDIA PARENT-TEACHER PARTNERSHIP APPLICATION (PTP App) DALAM SUPERVISI KEGIATAN BELAJAR SISWA FASE A DI SEKOLAH INDONESIA KUALA LUMPUR (SIKL) 

DEVELOPMENT OF THE PARENT-TEACHER PARTNERSHIP APPLICATION (PTP App) FOR SUPERVISING PHASE A STUDENTS' LEARNING ACTIVITIES AT SEKOLAH INDONESIA KUALA LUMPUR (SIKL)

ABSTRAK Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk: (1) Mengidentifikasi permasalahan pembelajaran yang dihadapi siswa fase A di SIKL, (2) Mendeskripsikan proses pengembangan aplikasi media penghubung Guru dan Orang tua siswa PTP App pada siswa fase A di SIKL, dan (3) Menguraikan implementasi media penghubung Guru dan Orang tua siswa PTP App dalam kegiatan supervisi pada siswa fase A di SIKL. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan Research and Development (R&D) dengan metode ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) sebagai kerangka kerja pengembangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa permasalahan pembelajaran yang dihadapi oleh siswa Fase A SIKL teridentifikasi dalam tiga faktor yaitu, faktor akademik, faktor non-akademik, dan faktor lingkungan. Aplikasi PTP App memiliki reliabilitas yang baik dengan nilai Cronbach’s Alpha sebesar 0.729. Hasil deskriptif statistik mengungkapkan bahwa rata-rata skor evaluasi untuk setiap indikator berada pada kisaran 3.94 hingga 4.22, mencerminkan respons positif terhadap aplikasi. Uji validitas juga menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar indikator memiliki korelasi signifikan dengan total skor (p < 0.05), mendukung validitas instrumen. Implementasi PTP App terbukti meningkatkan efisiensi pelaporan guru dan keterlibatan orang tua dalam supervisi kegiatan belajar siswa. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa PTP App adalah media digital yang efektif untuk mendukung supervisi pembelajaran siswa Fase A di SIKL. Meski demikian, penelitian ini merekomendasikan pengembangan fitur personalisasi dan perluasan cakupan penggunaan aplikasi untuk fase pendidikan lainnya. Temuan ini dapat menjadi referensi bagi pengembangan media supervisi serupa di lingkungan pendidikan lainnya. Kata Kunci: Pengembangan media, Parent-Tea

ABSTRACT
This study aims to: (1) Identify the learning challenges faced by Phase A students at SIKL, (2) Describe the development process of the Parent-Teacher Partnership Application (PTP App) as a communication medium between teachers and parents for Phase A students at SIKL, and (3) Explain the implementation of the PTP App as a medium for teacher-parent communication in supervising Phase A students at SIKL. This research utilizes a Research and Development (R&D) approach with the ADDIE method (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) as the development framework.

The results indicate that the learning challenges faced by Phase A students at SIKL are categorized into three factors: academic, non-academic, and environmental factors. The PTP App demonstrated good reliability, with a Cronbach’s Alpha score of 0.729. Descriptive statistical results revealed that the average evaluation scores for each indicator ranged from 3.94 to 4.22, reflecting positive responses to the application. Validity testing also showed that most indicators had significant correlations with the total score (p < 0.05), supporting the instrument’s validity.

The implementation of the PTP App was proven to improve the efficiency of teacher reporting and parental involvement in supervising students' learning activities. This study concludes that the PTP App is an effective digital medium to support the supervision of Phase A students’ learning at SIKL. However, the study recommends developing personalization features and expanding the app’s use to other educational phases. These findings can serve as a reference for developing similar supervision media in other educational settings.
