Development of Learning Management Model using Design Thinking Process in Conjunction with Community-Based Learning to Promote 21st Century Skills

Abstract

The purposes of this research article were 1) to study basic information; 2) to create and verify a model; and 3) to evaluate learning management model based on design thinking process in conjunction with community-based learning to promote 21^st century skills. It was a mixed-methods research by studying basic information from studies, analyzing, and synthesizing, theories, research documents, books, and documents related to learning management model creation. The status of 25 stakeholders was studied, the learning management model was examined by 5 experts, and the feasibility and usefulness of the model was assessed by 80 stakeholders. The research results found that 1) learning activities can develop competencies of learners to create thinking processes by learning from real experiences with the community. The teacher was a facilitator in organizing activities. Learners were the creators of knowledge from project work. Measurement and evaluation in real situations resulted in 21^st century skills that were consistent with the identity of community college students; 2) the learning management model with design thinking combined with the learning process using the community as a base to promote 21^st century skills (HEART Model) had 4 components in total: (1) principles, (2) objectives, (3) 5-step learning processes, (4) measurement and evaluation, and 3) model evaluation. The feasibility aspect was at the highest level with a mean of 4.68 and a standard deviation of 0.65. The usefulness aspect was at the highest level with a mean of 4.71 and a standard deviation of 0.57.
