Abstract

Schools are recognizing the importance of Self-Directed Learning as a necessary skill needed for 21st century (Chou, 2008). Fahnoe & Mishra (2013), SDL remains a relevant life skill and requires a new examination under the current educational contexts, and the opportunities provided by access to new technologies for learning. In Indonesia, learning management system (LMS) applications have been developed, for example Ruangguru. This study used the SDL theory from Garrison (1997) which consists of threee dimensions; motivation, self-monitoring, and self-management. This study aims to see the differences of Self-Directed Learning between users and non-users of Learning Management System (Ruangguru) application among secondary school students in Indonesia. The respondents of this research were 344 secondary school students in Indonesia (104 Ruangguru active users and 240 Ruangguru non-users). The data were collected using online questionnaire. The respondents come from several provinces and ethnicities in Indonesia. The research method used was quantitative-comparative by using convenience sampling. Data was analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test with confidence interval of 95%. The results showed that Self-Directed Learning (SDL) score of Ruangguru Users was significantly higher than Ruangguru Non-Users secondary high school student (p<0.05, effect size = 0.51). The results of demographic data showed that there were not significant SDL differences in terms of age, gender, school province, ethnicity, and students’ grade level.  Therefore, it can be concluded that Ruangguru LMS application could support the development of SDL.
