The purpose of this study was to develop a refractor telescope using a web camera as learning media. It was the Research and Development (R&D) study which referred to the model modified by Sugiyono. The product was evaluated by a media expert and undergraduate students of Sub-Department of Physics Education, Tadulako University using questionnaires with a 4-point Likert scale. The product quality data obtained were analyzed using descriptive analysis. The quality of the product based on the analysis of the media expert’s assessment was good with the average score of 2.92. Meanwhile, the results of student responses to the limited trial obtained a score of 3.20 which indicated the agreement of usability. The test results and questionnaire analysis showed that the refractor telescope using the developed Web Camera (WebCam) is feasible to be used as learning media.
