This research was applied in experimental research design. The populations of this research are the third semester students of Macroeconomics Theory subject at Economics Education Study Program that consisted of three classes. Based on the result of this research, it can be concluded that there was significant different of students’ learning outcome before and after the treatment of Blended Learning based on Edmodo Application at Macroeconomics Theory subject at significant level alpha 5%.
