This research and development project aimed to create learning materials in the form of an Internet of Things (IoT) trainer kit specifically designed for the Digital Circuit course. The goal was to enhance student motivation and learning outcomes by facilitating a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter. The research methodology employed was research and development (R&D) utilizing the Instructional Development Institute (IDI) development model, which consists of define, develop, and evaluate stages. Primary data were gathered from experts in instrumentation, media, and materials, as well as feedback from lecturers and students. The findings revealed a high level of validity for the IoT trainer kit learning media. Media experts assigned a validity value of 0.93, while material experts provided a validity value of 0.86. The practicality of the media was confirmed by favorable responses from lecturers, indicating a practicality score of 87.31%. Additionally, students’ responses after the trial reflected a high practicality rating of 83.25%. Regarding effectiveness, the IoT trainer kit learning media demonstrated success in improving student learning outcomes, with a gain score of 77.25%, affirming its effectiveness. In conclusion, the IoT trainer kit Learning Media is considered valid, practical, and effective for teaching digital circuits within the Electrical Engineering Study Program at Muhammadiyah University of West Sumatra. Its utilization is expected to boost student engagement, creativity, and learning outcomes, potentially improving the overall quality of education. © 2024 by the authors of this article.
