Abstract
This study aims to: (1) produce learning media that are suitable for use, easy to learn and can be used for learning (2) to determine the effectiveness of google sites-based differentiated learning media. This type of research is development research that uses the ADDIE product development model. This research was conducted on students of SMP Negeri 16 Medan. The method used in this study is a quasi-experimental method. The research sample consisted of 68 students consisting of 34 students as an experimental class who were taught using differentiated learning media based on Google sites and 34 students as a control class who were taught using the power point learning media. The results of the research hypothesis testing prove that there is a significant difference between students^ informatics learning outcomes taught using google sites-based differentiation learning media and informatics learning outcomes taught using the power point learning media. This is indicated by the acquisition of data, namely t_count = 3.77 while t_table = 1.77 with dk = N_1 + N_2-2 at a significant level of α- = 0.05. It was concluded that the effectiveness of using differentiated learning media based on google sites was 77.05% while the effectiveness of using the Constructivism learning model was 71.32%.
