Pengembangan Aplikasi Sistem Database Virtual Community Digital Learning Nusantara (VCDLN) Menggunakan Model Waterfall

Along with the development of today's era and technology, humans are required to make changes, especially in the field of education. The challenges that occur in education are very complex, especially during the current covid19 pandemic. All learning is carried out online/PJJ (distance learning) to minimize the spread of the covid-19 virus. So, the impact that occurs is that all schools must change all knowledge strategies face-to-face to Online Learning (PJJ). Of course, this is not easy because several things include teachers' readiness, student, and technology resources. In addition, if learning is carried out remotely, there must be other supporting materials, one of which is quality content. Quality content must go through a review process first. However, no forum can meet the needs of the review process, so there is a need for a community-based system that can accommodate the content review process to produce quality content. In this study, a learning community database system application was developed related to developing quality content. The development of this database system application will use the waterfall method with structured programming. The stages are carried out using the waterfall method, starting from analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. Meanwhile, structured programming is used when designing applications and implementing the waterfall method. So that with the application of this database system, it is hoped that the quality of the content to be published, especially in the field of education, will be guaranteed. Students will get the material as expected with quality content, especially with distance learning during this pandemic.
