1. Introduction

Information technology in recent years have grown very rapidly, thus changing the paradigm of the community in seeking and obtaining the information is no longer limited to information newspapers, audio-visual and electronic, but also sources of other information on them through the Internet. The influence of the development of information and communication technologies in the learning process is marked by the emergence of a variety of educational media from simple educational media, development of instructional media to internet-based learning. The development of instructional technology in education promises great potential for changing the way a person to learn, to obtain information, to customize information and others.

Learning media also provides an opportunity for educators to develop learning techniques so as to get maximum results. For instance, for students, the use of learning media is expected to make them easier to get the information because they do not reach from merely the textbook. The ability of instructional media technology has developed rapidly and will further add to the ease in getting information for the sake of learning. In learning activities, teachers are often encountered with abstract material and beyond the everyday experience of students. As a consequence, teachers get some difficulties to provide some teaching material and students get some problems to understand. Visualization is one way that can be done to make something abstract to be real. Images the two-dimensional or three-dimensional model is a visualization that is often used in the learning process. Visualization in the learning process develops in the form of moving images (animation) that can be added to the sound (audio). Serving audio-visual or better known as the learning media is expected to make the visualization more attractive.

Edgar Dale in Heinrich Robert et al. described the importance of visualization and verbalist learning experience called "Edgar Dale Cone experience". According to Edgar Dale in [1] that there is a continuum from the concrete to the abstract between direct experience, visual and verbal in instilling a concept or understanding. The more concrete experiences will be better to ensure the learning process. Thus, that visualization is easier for people to grasp the understanding.

Cirebon language lesson, which is the local content subjects in the learning process still face many obstacles. For instances, teachers have not met in accordance with the required qualifications and competencies, lack of learning tools that support unavailability of teaching media. Other factors are the lack of interest of students in learning Cirebonese language and inadequate allocation of instructional time also hindered the learning process a Cirebonese language lesson. These obstacles are very influential in the language learning process and results of Cirebon. The effort to facilitate the Cirebonese language learning process using media has prompted researchers to develop instructional media for this subject.

2. Learning Media

Media (plural) is derived from the Latin word which is the form (singular) medium meaning "in between" (between). Media is in the middle between the sender of the message (sender) and the recipient (receiver, audience or communicant). Sadiman et al., defined that the media restrictions, namely: everything that can be used to deliver the message (message) from the sender to the recipient so that it can stimulate the mind, feelings, concerns and interests of students in a way that learning occurs [2].

Essentially, a learning process is a communication process, delivering a message of introduction to the receiver. Messages with content /teaching poured into symbols of communication, both verbal (word and writing) and nonverbal is called encoding. The interpretation of the symbols of the communication by the students is called decoding. This interpretation sometimes does not get success or failure. The failure to understand what is heard, read, seen or observed, caused by disorders that become an obstacle in the communication process known as barriers or noise. The more abstract understanding of verbal is increasingly accepted. Thus, what are the functions of the media?

The diagram cone of learning from Edgar Dale clearly gives the emphasis to the importance of media in education [1]. Generally, the media can function as follows:

• to clarify the message that is not to verbalise.

• to overcome the limitations of space, time, energy and resources senses.

• to provide potential passion to learn, the more direct interaction between students with learning resources.

• to allow children to learn independently according to their talents and abilities of visual, auditory and kinesthetic.

• to provide the same stimuli, similar experience and to rise to the same perception.

3. Multimedia

Multimedia comes from the word multi and media, multi is derived from the Latin (nouns) meaning a lot or mixed. The word media comes from the Latin media, the medium which means the intermediary or something that is used to deliver, convey or carry something, [3]. Multimedia is a combination of computer and video (Rosch, in Famukhit, et al, [4]) or multimedia is a tool that can create a dynamic and interactive presentations, that the combine text, graphics, animation, audio and videoand image video (Robin and Linda, in Famukhit, et al, [4]). Tay Vaughan [5], defines the multimedia is a combination of various media texts, images, video, music or handwritten. For the computer, the information for, all prepared from digital data. Oblinger in Munir [3], defines the multimedia represents the union of two or more communication media such as text, graphics, animation, audio and video with the characteristics of computer interactivity to generate the attractive presentation. Meanwhile, Mayer believes that using a multimedia presentation of material can directly use both of the words and pictures at the same time. The definition of 'words' here is the material presented in the form of verbal or verbal form, for example using text words printed or uttered. What is meant by 'image' is the material presented in pictorial form or shape of the image, can be in the form of static graphics (illustrations, graphs, photos and maps), or use dynamic charts (animation and video [6].

According to Plomp & Ely multimedia is described as a dynamic process of transformation of technologies to develop and to progress in making the understanding, and its name changes from years to years such as interactive video, interactive media, the combination of media, hypermedia and multimedia. Multimedia packaged as a product uses more than one medium as a communications tool, for example, text, images, movies, sound, graphics and animation in various combinations. They are integrated for use with computers that make it easier to interact [7].

4. Methods

This research adopts the development of research known Research and Development (R & D). Research and development in education is a process to develop and validate a product of education including material objects and procedures such as media, methods and learning models. In accordance with this definition, this research seeks to produce effective and interactive learning media. This research and development are carried out with reference to the model of research and development formulated by, Borg & Gall which has been adapted from the steps of instructional design Dick and Carey. These steps are called by Borg & Gall as The Step of the System Approach Model of Educational Research and Development (R & D) (1983: 569-571) which includes the steps as follows: 1) identify instructional goal(s), 2) conduct instructional analysis, 3) analyze learners and context, 4) write performance objective, 5) develop assessment instrument, 6) develop instructional strategies, 7) develop and select materials /instructional media, 8) Design and implement formative evaluation of instruction, 9) revise instructional activities, 10) design and implement summative evaluation.

These steps are illustrated in the figure below:

To measure the effectiveness of Cireboneselanguage learning media program which has been developed, the authors perform the following steps:

8.2. Conducting Pre- and Post-Test Test

To determine the effectiveness of the program, pretests and final tests are conducted to see the extent to which the developed product can improve learning outcomes or achievement of learning objectives. The final test given to students after participating in learning activities is in the form of formative test. Its function is expected to obtain the data regarding developed language learning media program for Cirebonese subject.

8.3. T- test

Initial test scores and final tests of learning analyzed by paired T-test, refer to a design of experiments (one-group pretest-posttest design O X O). [9]. Because the T-test is one test of basic statistical inference in statistical analysis t test assumptions include properties "robust" then, the assumptions of normality and homogeneity of variance might not be a serious problem (if neglected). Thus, it is assumed normal and homogenous population. [10].

8.4. Effectiveness Test of Media Programs

To determine the usefulness of the media program, the effectiveness test conducted. This test is in the form of the pretest and posttest which aims to determine the extent to which developed products can improve learning outcomes expected. The results of pre-tests and post-tests are described as follows: The data above is analyzed using t-test with the Microsoft Excel program and it shows in the following table:

Table 1. t-Test: Paired Two Sample for Means

Interpretation:

Based on the Table 1, it can be concluded that: First, Because t, 3,0569E-18 or = 3.0569 x 10-18 is smaller than t table at a significance level (α) amounted to 2.034515 0.05, then it rejects H0 and accepts Ha. It concluded that the Cireboneselanguage learning process using developed instructional media program is effective in improving students' learning outcomes. Second, mean scores after using Cirebonese language learning media is higher (better) than before using it. It is shown in the table Paired Sample Statistics, where the mean score before using amounted 50.44117647. While the mean score after using media language learning Cirebon amounted 65.88235294. This means that Cirebonese language learning media has a positive effect. Thirdly, Cirebonese language learning media program had a positive influence. Hence the decision to develop a media program on Cirebonese language subject has practical significance.
