Abstract

The problem in education during the Covid-19 pandemic was that learning activities were carried out online or through limited face-to-face meetings. This study aims to determine the need for technology-based learning media in biology subjects to improve the quality of learning during the pandemic. This research is descriptive qualitative research with a survey technique. The research subjects were students of class XII MIPA SMAN 10 Malang with a total of 50 respondents. The data collected is in the form of qualitative data obtained from a questionnaire of learning media needs. Data were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that 62% of students had difficulty in biology subjects, 74% stated that teachers used to lecture and question and answer methods in learning, and 80% needed technology-based learning media. Another finding in this study is that students need learning media, including animated videos, material summaries, and interactive media such as PowerPoint. In summary, students' needs for technology-based learning media are deemed necessary to be observed and fulfilled, so the online learning process or limited face-to-face meetings becomes more qualified and runs optimally.
