- Abstract
E-learning method have the advantages that are not limited to space and time. But this learning method also has weaknesses that are the students are difficult to understand the material because the same material is given to students without importance their abilities. Therefore, we need to create community of inquiry (CoI) based on the ability of students, so that different materials are given according to ability. CoI can be grouped into advances, intermediate, and beginner. The method used is experimental research that is directly conducting ability tests. The student ability test is implemented through the WhatsApp application by give a minute for each question, and all students must be online simultaneously. Student ability is tested with psychological test consisting of 30 questions. Calculation of test assessment using Microsoft Excel. One class was tested by 30 students, that is created six CoI with each CoI consisting of five students. Classification based on assessment analyzed by Rasch Model. One advance CoI has the ability log > 2 and can solve all difficult questions, and one advance CoI has the ability log of 1.6 – 1.87 and can solve several difficult questions. Two intermediate CoI have the ability log of 0.13 – 1.18 and can solve a few difficult questions. Two beginners CoI are identified only guessing difficult questions because the ability log <= 0 and two students identified cheating on each other because they have the same answer. The six CoI that already formed will be put in six e-learning groups via WhatsApp.
