MULTIMEDIA IN LITERACY DEVELOPMENT AT REMOTE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS IN WEST JAVA (MULTIMEDIA DALAM PENGEMBANGAN LITERASI DI SEKOLAH DASAR TERPENCIL JAWA BARAT)

. This research aims to design a multimedia based literacy learning model using PAIKEM (Active, Innovative, Creative, Effective, Fun Learning). This research was located in a remote area in West Java. This research used Research and Development approach. The data was collected through library study, observation, interview, questionnaire and performance assess-ment. The instruments used include RPP, IPKG I, and IPKG II in order to assess the RPP and the learning process. The data analysis was qualitatively descriptive which include: 1) Theoretical analysis about literacy, multimedia and PAIKEM; 2) The analysis of teacher's ability in literacy learning, media and PAIKEM approach; 3) Assessment of teacher's need for media; 4) The devel-opment of learning models which are suitable with teachers' and students' need in remote areas; 5) The analysis of the model developed; 6) Analysis for improvement; 7) Analysis for refinement and dissemination. This research involved two remote schools in Subang regency dan West Ban-dung regency. The results showed that teachers in remote areas of West Java needed training on literacy materials and methods based on PAIKEM and computer use for learning media.
