Design of Collaborative Cloud ClassRoom (CCCR) for Ethno-Flipped Classroom Teaching Model

The integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is growing in the education sector, particularly in mathematics learning. The integration of ICT is also adjusted to the applied learning model. One of the technology-integrated learning models is the ethno-flipped classroom model. Mathematics learning based on the ethno-flipped classroom model strengthens the interactive discussion and collaboration activities between students and teachers both inside and outside the classroom learning stage. However, the available platforms have not provided flexibility in the implementation of interactive and collaborative discussion activities. This study aims to develop a prototype cloud-based learning technology platform system called Collaborative Cloud ClassRoom. The system is developed in PHP using the CodeIgniter framework and MySQL database. This research is development research with a Waterfall model limited to the non-functional testing stage of the developed system. The results show that the Collaborative Cloud ClassRoom prototype system passed the non-functional testing (75.85%, exceeding the lower limit − 70
^%
) which means the tested items are valid, and can be referred to as prototype-1 and is feasible for further testing. This research is a pilot study to be further developed at the advanced development stage for expert and practitioner testing before the system design is ready for field trials.
