Abstract

The objective of this study is to develop digital comic-based learning media for the subject of Indonesian Soup and Soto Processing for 11th-grade Culinary Vocational High School students and to assess its feasibility. This research employs the Research and Development (R&D) methodology with the 4D model: Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate, conducted at SMKN 4 Yogyakarta. Data collection methods include observation, interviews, and questionnaires. Data analysis is carried out using descriptive statistics. The developed digital comic media features an A5 size (21cm x 14.8cm) with a total of 29 pages, consisting of 1 cover page, 2 introductory pages, 24 content pages, 1 character page, and 1 conclusion page, covering the topics of soup and soto processing and presentation, including definitions, classification, characteristics, composition, criteria for results, processing techniques, and presentation techniques. The feasibility of the digital comic media was validated by both media and material validators, and the trial results from 11th-grade Culinary students at SMKN 4 Yogyakarta showed that 88% rated it as highly feasible and 12% rated it as feasible.
