Measuring Islamic boarding school website effectiveness using usability analysis

The Islamic boarding school is the oldest educational institution in Indonesia. However, Islamic boarding schools must be able to keep up with today’s technological developments, one of which is the application of information technology. One of them is an Islamic boarding school that has a website that is used by the media to cover and promote activities in the Islamic boarding school. With a website of an Islamic boarding school, it is necessary to measure the effectiveness of a website for Islamic boarding schools because Islamic boarding schools are like religious studies. Therefore, it is necessary to know the effectiveness of the Islamic boarding school website using usability tests. By applying SUS (System Usability Scale) to test the Islamic boarding school website i.e. Nurul Salam Lodoyo Islamic Boarding School, Blitar Regency, the usability value is 72. Where usability results were obtained from 55 respondents who answered Brooke’s 10 standard questions. The availability score of 72 explains that an Islamic boarding school website is acceptable and is also ranked based on Brooke’s standard rating scale. From these results, it can be concluded that the Islamic boarding school website still needs to be reevaluated and redeveloped to further improve its use value.
