Abstract: The researchers conducted direct observation at the State Polytechnic Creative Media PSDD Medan. The object of the research includes learning on the subject of Basic Programming. The researchers found several phenomena including: 1). The subject of Basic Programming is a subject in which the material guides students to think logically in solving problems through algorithms in the form of coding (instructions). 2). Learning set used the textbook. 3). Teaching and learning process was conducted conventionally. The lecturer delivered the material in the textbooks to the students, the conclusion of the material was written on the white board. 4). Tools used on the subject of the Basic Programming were the C ++ programming language. Based on the phenomenon, the researchers found several problems including: 1). Low skill and the students had not mastered the material that has not been achieved in learning the subject of basic programming. 2). Students did not respond when interacting in question and answer session, which impacted the learning process become non-interactive. 3). Independence and active role of students in learning the subject of basic programming had not been seen because learning was lecturer centered. 4). Learning model that was centered on the lecturer made the students unable to think creatively and solve new problem presented by the lecturer on the subject of basic programming. Based on the explanation above, in this research, the researchers developed a learning model used in learning the subject of Basic Programming that is a blended learning model using an e-book integrated with the Learning Management System (LMS).
