Abstract

The 21st century is momentum for free learning through the government^s program for free learning. This is a special concern for researchers to develop trainers that enable students to study anywhere with anyone and at any time according to employability skills. This study aims to test the feasibility of the railroad cross trainer that has been made. Manufacturers use the ADDIE method (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate). In contrast, the feasibility test uses student responses at school with a shot case study research design. The results showed that the Trainer^s feasibility level was 90.17%, so it was categorized as very suitable to be used as a trainer that could be used freely at school or at home as a learning medium. The results of student responses obtained from student response questionnaires obtained an average percentage of 93.51%. The students^ learning outcomes seen from the One sample test obtained a T count value of 6.677. Thus the result of Tcount = 6.677 > Ttable = 2.045. This shows that the value of student learning outcomes is above the Minimum Completeness Criteria (KKM), which is 75. In addition, it can also be stated that student learning outcomes after using the Trainer have a very significant difference.
