Development of Richpeace Software-Based e-Modules on Digital Clothing Pattern Making Competence

Abstract

Mastery of computer aided design (CAD)-based design software to make fashion patterns for vocational students is very necessary, so that there is a conformity of competencies required by industry. One of the characteristics of 21st century learning is the integration of information and communication technology (ICT) in learning. Specifically, this research aims to: 1) develop richpeace software-based e-module; 2) analyze the feasibility of richpeace software-based e-module; and 3) analyze the effectiveness of richpeace software-based e-module to improve the competence of making digital fashion patterns for vocational students in the fashion study program. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D). The feasibility and practicality validation analysis used the intraclass correlation Coefficients method with the help of SPSS v.19 software, while the analysis of the effectiveness of the developed e-module used the t test. Based on the results of data development and analysis, the resulting richpeace software-based emodule was declared very feasible by material experts with a score of (97.0) and very feasible by media experts with a score of (96.3). The practicality of the developed e-module was also tested by the fashion teacher, with very practical results (97.5). The e-module that was developed was also tested for effectiveness by using the t-test, with the result that there was a significant difference before and after using the e-module, with an increased value of 18.5 and a p-value of 0.000), and had an N-Gain value of 0, 93 which means that the developed e-module is very effective. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the developed e-module is very feasible, very practical and very effective to improve the competence of making digital clothing patterns for vocational students in the fashion study program.
