Abstract. The competence of students of Information and Computer Technology
Education in the basic concepts of programming has not yet fully achieved the expected
results. The problem is due to the lack of time in the learning process, limited ability to
access devices that support practical laboratories, and the COVID-19 pandemic situation.
Efforts to overcome this gap by conducting training in the field of computer programming.
This training is designed to be carried out outside of lecture time. The training process is
carried out outside of lecture time providing broad opportunities for students as training
participants. This training is also designed so that it can be carried out interactively via the
internet. The interactive training process requires media by utilizing e-learning technology
known as web-based training technology. Web-based training media has succeeded in
facilitating learning and also demonstrating practical activities. The media produced in this
study is web-based interactive multimedia.
Keywords: training media, computer programming, web-based training
1. Introduction
The human resources needed by industry 4.0 today are those who have competence in the use
of digital technology. This competency is intended to realize smart factories such as the Internet
of Things. The application of industry 4.0 in principle will not replace the role of human labor,
but can encourage increased competence to understand the use of the latest technology in the
industrial world [1]. According to [2], to obtain competitive human resources in industry 4.0,
the educational curriculum must be designed so that the graduates produced have the
competence to overcome new literacy. This new literacy includes data literacy, technology
literacy, and human literacy. Data literacy is related to the ability to read, analyze, and draw
inferences based on the data and information (big data) obtained. Technological literacy is
related to the ability to understand how machines work. Human literacy is related to
communication, collaboration, critical thinking, creative, and innovative skills [3].
