Abstract

Some schools will continue to hold online learning after the new normal to provide broader reach to students and teachers. Online learning in practicum class requiring physical practice equipment remains a challenge. This research proposes Maliki V-Lab, a metaverse-based VR laboratory that provides practicum class for computer assembly as an online learning media platform. The system tested for the usability and the virtual presence by students. System usability was measured using the System Usability Scale (SUS) questionnaire, and virtual presence using the Igroup Presence Questionnaire (IPQ) with 40 respondents. The system usability test results are marginally acceptable, and virtual presence test result is acceptable for general presence; spatial presence; and expected realism, and marginally acceptable for involvement category. Based on these results, this system can used for practical learning specifically according to the criteria that have been tested. Maliki V-Labs needs to improve the level of usability and virtual presence before it can be expanded with another practicum class and another type of respondent.
