Abstract

The support of ICT in distance learning is absolutely required. Time and distance will not impede learning if it is supported by ICT. In the future, distance learning is very suitable to be developed in Indonesia provided that ICT supports be made available since educational facilities are not evenly distributed in addition to the insuffcient number of educators especially in remote areas. Effective teaching material provides maximum learning accomplishment and fascinates students. This research elaborates on ICT-supported teaching material (multimedia web-based teaching material). One of the softwares which can be used for developing ICTbased teaching material is Macromedia Flash Player. This is applied to the topic of the use of smart relay periodically learned by students in the cahpter of Energy Management. Data collection in the development of the teaching material is done by giving a questionnaire to media and material experts. 23 items are provided for media evaluation yielding the overall score of 154 (83.6%). Material evaluation which consists of 16 items yields the overall score of 128 (84.3%).
