ABSTRACT
The study has the purpose to find the technology-based-learning implementation
model that enables learning delivery to be more effective for Junior High School
students in Jakarta. This is the way to respond to the research problem that
questions the difficulties of teachers in using educational technology effectively.
The technology-based learning can promote the UN campaign for the
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The significance of the study is to help
school and teachers to have a model of technology implementation in learning.
Using a qualitative case study method, this research gathered data in a school in
Jakarta that has enthusiasm and commitment to using technology in the learning.
The researcher interviewed leaders and teachers coordinators, observed the steps
of technology implementation and used literature and documentation review. As
the findings, the implementation model needs a strong commitment from school
leaders and foundations, personal and step-by-step mentoring to teachers,
consistent training and practice, responsiveness to the world changes and student
needs, encouragement of teachers to find their own tools, usage of standard
operating system (SOP), monitoring and rigorous evaluation.

1. INTRODUCTION
A survey in a number of private schools states that one of the strengths of the private
schools is in the facility [1]. The classroom is equipped with an LCD projector and almost all
teachers are accustomed to using technology in the learning. A question arises if the
technology already inherent in the learning. Has technology been used to support the
effectiveness of the learning?The data found in some private schools when the research was
started, said that the technology and internet weren’t really integrated into learning. Some
teachers didn’t usepowerpointpresentation to its maximum functions. The use of powerpoint
presentation was just like moving text into a presentation. Similarly, some teachers used
movies to support the learning but still needed patterns, planning, and consistency. The
problem was needed to be solved.
The purpose of this study is to find an implementation model of technology-based-learning
for the Junior High School students in Jakarta. It will support teachers to be able to integrate
technology into the learning and implement it consistently and effectively. The technology-
based learning is the recommendation of UNESCO and UNICEFto reach the Education for
Sustainable Development (ESD) as the part of the UN campaign for the promotion of the
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)[2]. The technology is believed to develop the critical
