Abstract

This study aims to look at the effectiveness of Open University online tutor training. The competencies that must be achieved by trainees are being able to plan, implement and evaluate student learning outcomes in online tutorials (administrative, learning design, facilitation, evaluation and technical aspects). Training participants are trained online for 1 week to achieve these competencies. The research data was obtained through analysis of the training participants 'activities on the etraining.ut.ac.id website, tutors' self-perception questionnaire after carrying out online learning and tutor activity data on elearning.ut.ac.id website. The results of the data analysis of tutor activities during online training showed that the training helped tutors in implementing 3 aspects of online learning in the classroom (administrative, design and technical). While the other 2 aspects (facilitation and evaluation) are obtained after the participants have served in the real tutorial class. This research shows that tutors still need guidance, enrichment and strengthening as tutors to produce better performance in guiding students. The recommendations that emerged from this study were that there was a need to improve the Open University online tutoring training strategy in the future.
