Development of “Image Processing” Practical Learning Model On Diploma Program Informatics Engineering Department

This research was conducted by students of Informatics Engineering diploma program at the Teachers’ Training College in Central Java. This study uses a research model for the development of a 4D model learning system. Before the research was carried out the initial needs analysis on the Practical Image Processing learning that took place so far in the Informatics Engineering diploma program. This research aims to find out the suitability of the practice learning model needed by the industrial world. The results of the initial needs analysis show that the practical learning model is needed by students in improving the ability and skills of the Image Processing field. The stages in developing practical learning use 4D as follows: 1) defining; 2) design; 3) development; 4) dissemination. The four stages include: a) lecturer and student observation; b) designing teaching materials; c) design of practicum modules; d) designing practicum instructions; e) designing practicum tools; f) validation of teaching materials experts, practice modules, media practice tools; g) limited trial. In this study is still in the development stage, for the dissemination phase in further research. In the desimanation stage is a wide dissemination stage of the results of the design of practical learning models
