Abstract

The Covid-19 outbreak has spread globally and entered Indonesia since March 2020. Since then, a Work from Home (WFH) system has been implemented and is required to carry out online learning for every educational institution. Online learning is a new challenge for educators, students and parents, where the need for computers / laptops, cellphones and quotas is very much needed. However, economic limitations at the time of the pandemic caused limitations to meet very large cellphones and quotas. Therefore, so that learning at home runs easily and is enjoyable for students affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. Therefore the researcher wants to use the used STB (Set Top Box) media to become educational TV as a home learning media. The results of this utilization include (1) used STB users are greatly helped by the use of a bigger and clearer TV screen than cellphones, so that students are able to see more clearly the material being studied; (2) the operation is very easy because it is based on android; and (3) the device is easy to carry anywhere. However, this STB is not equipped with a built-in speaker/headset, microphone and camera, so for the use of certain applications such as zoom applications, additional tools are needed in the form of a speaker / headset (for device users who do not have built-in speakers), microphones and additional cameras so that users can listen, respond and show videos when in a meeting.
