Type of Study Data and Sampling

2476 and passively involved in learning processes. The present research employed purposeful sampling since the purpose of its was to construct an e -learning model that would eventually be implemented in Accounting D epartment of Airlangga University.

3.3. Stages of Research

Based on the abovementioned method and theory, processes of research aimed at producing an e-learning model could be summarized as follows: 1. Observation stage, important considerations of which we re: a. What are general learning purposes that would be performed. b. Who would be participants of the learning. c. What materials that would be delivered to the participants. d. What processes that would influence success of learning processes. 2. Model construction stage, consisted of: a. Outlining general purposes into smaller learning purposes. b. Collecting instructional materials from a various source of experts. c. Utilizing Dick and Carey‘s method in accordance with purposes. d. Finding problem samples relevant to materi als prepared. e. Determining media that would be used in delivery of materials. f. Determining who would be involved in learning processes. Contents of e-learning collected in the preliminary phaseobservation were then constructed into an e-learning model that would be depicted in the form of Data Flow Diagram DFD, a web e -learning mapping. After 2477 construction of e-learning model, the next phase was construction of e - learning database based on contents originated from results of analysis. The database was subsequently assembled by using Entity Relationship Diagram ERD and resulted in e-learning database. This database would be a basis in implementing e-learning. The above overall stages could be made into table of input-process-output as can be found in Appendix 5.

CHAPTER IV  RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

4.1. Overview of Information System of Ac counting Department of Airlangga University

Information system of Airlangga University was interconnected to information systems of respective faculties, one of them was Faculty of Economy of Airlangga University. Information system of Faculty of Economy was employed concomitantly by four departments: Accounting, Economics, Management, and Islamic Economy. Facilities of information system resource of Faculty of Economy, a mong others, included Internet access terminal, computers for academic activities, bandwidth, and server. Hence, Accounting Department together with other three departments received facilities of information system in order to provide services: 1. SMS for ascertaining academic reports, semester credit units to be programmed, and accumulative number of semester credit units. This
