At Kanisius Ungaran Vocational School in Class X MPLB there is no web-based interactive learning media for the History subject. In this regard, there is a need to develop web-based interactive learning media so that teaching and learning activities are more interesting and enjoyable, especially in the subject of History. The benefit of this research is that it can apply the knowledge possessed by researchers in developing web-based interactive learning media in the History subject in class X MPLB Kanisius Vocational School Ungaran. Apart from that, this research is also expected to increase learning creativity and innovation, as for the practical benefits of this research, it can make it easier for teachers and students in teaching and learning activities in the subject of History

Based on the observations that have been made at the Arri’ayah Islamic Boarding School in Lembak Village, Lembak District,Muara Enim Regency, the problems found are.

Learning Media applications that use an Android-based material delivery system are expected to facilitate the delivery of material, where previously material was only found in books and the internet. Learning materials that only come from books reduce the reader's understanding because there are only text and pictures. This is what underlies the selection of the thesis title "Application of Android-Based Hydroponic Vegetable Growing Learning Media Application" in the hope that it can be a solution to help people who take part in the training understand material about growing vegetables by hydroponics.Hydroponics is an agricultural activity carried out by using water as a medium to replace soil. So, hydroponics can be interpreted as a work or management of water as a medium for plant growth without using soil media as a planting medium and taking the required mineral nutrients from a nutrient solution dissolved in water. The learning media application for growing hydroponic vegetables based on Android is limited to material on hydroponics, planting media and tools used in hydroponics, the steps needed for hydroponic farming, systems or techniques that exist in hydroponics.

In the current era, learning adheres to the 2013 curriculum which includes HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills) consisting of critical thinking competencies, creativity and innovation, communication skills, collaboration skills and selfconfidence. These five things need to be trained or improved for deaf children so that they can take part in learning well. So learning media products are made that can be used to recognize letters and numbers. This Learning Media is equipped with sign language to support the understanding of deaf children in addition, it is packaged with an attractive appearance so that deaf children are interested in learning it. Often in daily teaching and learning activities students still often experience problems in remembering the material being taught both in the introduction of letters and also the introduction of numbers and what becomes an obstacle for students learning must be done repeatedly so that they can remember it and can really understand what it means. being taught and also they are sometimes bored and lazy in learning. From the problems that occur above, it is necessary to have a learning media that can help children with disabilities, especially the deaf, especially for the introduction of numbers and letters so that they can easily understand and understand letters and numbers. not bored, bored and lazy in learning. Learning media in the form of an android application so that it can be used on smartphones which are currently very widely used by both teachers and parents of students with disabilities.

The recruitment of new mechanics at Mataram Sakti is no longer through the training process at the head office, but new mechanics are placed at the dealership accompanied by the chief mechanic as a supervisor, with the aim of providing training to new mechanics in order to be able to service or periodically repair Yamaha products especially the latest motorbikes namely Yamaha NMAX, because of the flurry sometimes the mechanical head is not in place so that when the mechanic is experiencing problems it cannot directly ask the mechanical head causing the handling of repairs to be less effective and efficient. One way to overcome this is to create a web-based expert system application with a forward chaining method so that the chief mechanic can transfer the knowledge he has into the computer. Forward chaining method is a search technique that starts with known facts and then matches these facts with the IF part of the IF-Then rules, so that conclusions can be drawn. This expert system was built using supporting software including, Macromedia Dreamweaver MX, PHP script language, MySQL database and WAMP server. The expert system for diagnosing damage to Yamaha NMAX motorcycles using the forward chaining method can be used as a new mechanical learning media in diagnosing damage to NMAX motorcycles and as a means of chief mechanics transferring their knowledge. 

Based on the results of observation, the learning method used in SMP Muhammadiyah 3 Kaliwungu is in the form of discourse, discussions, question and answer with the book media. Learning methods that have been applied so far have not had enough impact on students' level of understanding. The method used is less successful, so students feel bored and bored. This study offers a solution for multimedia utilization with the Mind Map method as an interesting learning media, where computers can display text, images, videos and audio so that students can have a pleasant impression in the learning process. The validity value of media experts is 2.9 which is declared feasible, while the validity value of material experts is 3.3, which is declared feasible, and increases students' understanding and interest as users from 58.5% up to 80.5%.

SMK Kyai Ageng Pandanaran Semarang  is one of the private vocational high school that want to improve quality of teaching and learning to produce quality graduates. During these teaching and learning methods that are used less than maximum, students are easily saturated, study time is limited and there are no facilities for new teachers to learn service and auto repair material  efficiently. The authors develop a learning media services and auto repair expert system based that aims to resolve the issue. Learning media is developed by prototype approach. Expert system technology advanced trace method is applied into the learning media through   the facilities of diagnosis and troubleshooting to help new teachers and student learning to identify the damage automobile. Database can be managed and updated by senior teachers by utilizing the MySQL database and PHP programming language. In addition, this learning media also features video demonstration of the *.swf file and the theoretical material in the form of a *.pdf file.

The concept chosen as a learning media is to explain the material about understanding, introduction of parts, types, and quiz containing questions about hydroponic plant cultivation. This research uses the Research and Development (RnD) product development method, using 6 out of 10 stages research that is the potential and problems, data collection, product design, design validation, design improvement, product trials. The results of this study are to produce learning media in the form of Android-based applications. The validity value of media experts is 2.6 which is declared feasible, while the validity value of material experts is 3.6 which is declared feasible, and is able to increase the average value in the subject of vocational competence in hydroponic cultivation in Christian Terang Bangsa Vocational Schools which initially 67 (with 13 students who had not yet reached KKM) to 80 (with 4 students who had not yet reached KKM).
