Development of Online Simulator Supports Web-Based Computer Programming Training Media in Information Technology and Computer Education

The problem of lack of understanding of student competence in basic programming concepts is due to lack of time in the learning process where theory and practice are integrated in only 2 credits per week, limited ability to access tools that support practicum. One of the efforts to overcome this gap in the mastery of basic programming competencies is by conducting training in the field of computer programming. This training is designed to be carried out outside of class time and is not related to the tasks that must be completed by students in lectures. The training process carried out outside of class time provides broad opportunities for students as training participants. This computer programming training is also designed to be done interactively via the internet (online). The interactive training process as described above requires media by utilizing e-learning technology in the field of training known as web-based training technology. Web-based training media have succeeded in facilitating the process of delivering training materials and also demonstrating computer programming practice activities.
