ABSTRAK

E-learning yang merupakan perpaduan antara pendidikan dan teknologi informasi, adalah pendekatan pembelajaran yang cocok untuk generasi Z. Implementasi e-learning membutuhkan pengetahuan tentang konsep e-learning dan keterampilan untuk mengoperasikan aplikasi e-learning. Siswa dari SMP dan SMA Ta'miriyah Surabaya termasuk dalam generasi Z yang paham teknologi dan lebih menyukai pembelajaran visual daripada pembelajaran audio. Permasalahannya adalah para guru di dua sekolah ini memiliki pengetahuan yang belum memadai tentang konsep e-learning dan keterampilan dalam menggunakan teknologi informasi untuk kegiatan pembelajaran belum merata. Permasalahan tersebut diselesaikan melalui program kemitraan masyarakat menggunakan pendekatan tiga metode. Pertama, sosialisasi konsep e-learning berdasarkan hasil dari studi literatur. Kedua, melakukan pelatihan aplikasi e-learning, dan terakhir adalah evaluasi pelaksanaan pelatihan. Pelatihan dilakukan dengan menggunakan aplikasi e-learning Edmodo yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan siswa, guru, dan sekolah, yaitu multi-platform, multi-perangkat, tanpa biaya, dan tersedianya fitur interaksi antara siswa, guru, dan orang tua siswa. Pada akhir program kemitraan masyarakat, dapat disimpulkan bahwa metode sosialisasi mampu meningkatkan pengetahuan dan pemahaman guru tentang konsep e-learning, sementara metode pelatihan mampu meningkatkan keterampilan guru dalam menggunakan aplikasi e-learning Edmodo, baik sebagai guru, siswa, maupun orang tua siswa.
