and  attract  students  To  learn  more  as  well  as  to 
improve the quality of learning. Learning media as 
part of advocacy technology has potential benefits in 
solving  learning  problems:  improving  educational 
products,  providing  more  individualized  learning 
opportunities,  providing  a  more  scientific  basis  for 
learning  and  education  processes  more  directly, 
Asyhar (2014). 
The criteria in the election of the media developed 
should take into account the goals to be achieved, the 
characteristics  of  the  students,  the  de-sired  type  of 
stimulus,  the  state  of  the  background  or  the 
environment and the extent of the range to be served 
(Sadiman,  2010).  According  to  Arsyad  (2011)  the 
common  traits  contained  in  the  media  are  (1) 
Educational media has a physical sense that is known 
today as hardware (hardware), which is an object that 
can be seen, heard, or touched with the five senses; 
(2)  The  educational  media  has  a  non-physical 
understanding  known  as  software  (soft-ware)  that 
contains the message contained in the hardware that 
is the content to be conveyed to the students; (3) The 
emphasis of educational media is on visual and audio; 
(4) The educational media has auxiliary tools in the 
learning  process  both  inside  and  outside  the 
classroom; (5) Educational media used in the context 
of  communication  and  interaction  of  teachers  and 
students in the learning process (6) Educational media 
can  be  used  in  bulk  (e.g.  radio,  television),  large 
groups and small groups (e.g. film, slide, video, OHP) 
, or individual (e.g. module, computer, radio tape / 
tape,  video  recorder);  (7)  Attitudes,  per-artificial, 
organization, strategy, and management related to the 
application of a science. 
Media development in the form of a pocket book 
is necessary because the pocket book has a small size, 
lightweight, can be stored in pocket and practical to 
carry and read (Sulistyani, 2013). Ac-cording to the 
dictionary  of  Great  Bahasa  Indonesia  (2008),  my 
pocket  but is  a  small  book  that  can  be  stored  in  a 
pocket and easy to carry anywhere. To-day electronic 
books are in great demand because of their small size 
compared  to  conventional  books  and  E-Books 
generally have search features, so words in electronic 
books can be quickly searched and found. In addition, 
the source of legal electronic books in Indonesia is not 
much,  among  others  released  by  the  Ministry  of 
National  Education  (now  the  Ministry  of  National 
Education)  with  the  opening  of  Electronic  Pocket 
Book Accounting for student.  
According to Morineau, et al (2005) e-book can 
potentially improve access to knowledge, especially 
in distance learning. Ardiansyah (2013) states that the 
electronic book (abbreviated E-Book) or digital book 
is the book displayed on the computer screen. If the 
book generally consists of a collection of papers that 
can contain text or images, then the electronic book 
contains digital information that can also be texts or 
images. This research is supported by research from 
Putri (2014) entitled Development of Pocket Book as 
Learning  Media  on  Special  Journal  Material  of 
Accounting  Company  Cycle  at  SMK  Ketintang 
Surabaya.  The  results  of  the  research  are  very 
feasible.  While  the  relationship  between  the 
development of electronic pocket books on learning 
outcomes is the result of research Anori, et al (2013) 
that the use of electronic textbooks in learning modes 
improve student learning outcomes. This is because 
in the electronic textbook present’s material equipped 
with  video  and  animation.  Videos  and  animations 
display physical symptoms that students cannot see 
while in class. Various applications of the material 
being studied are displayed through these videos and 
animations.  However,  previous  research  results  do 
not support the development of the need for e-books.  
The result of research of e-book effect on students' 
learning  result  is  Morineau  research  (2005)  shows 
that electronic e-book obstruct sensory ability / recall 
the relationship of information learned by students, 
but for textbook is not so. The existence of textbooks 
improves  reading  ability  and  better  remembering 
abilities. Based on observations made by researchers 
on the study program of accounting education force 
2016 that all students already have mobile phones and 
majority  based  on  android  both  to  help  search  for 
lecture materials as well as for communication. The 
advantages of using digital pocket book application 
based on E-learning is its user friendly nature is easy 
to use in operation, practical users and not too much 
space  in  the  system  to install  this application.  The 
utilization of E-learning has not been applied to all 
subjects,  especially  in  the  introductory  accounting 
courses in the accounting education program. Based 
on the above background, then for the formulation of 
the problem in this research are: How is the feasibility 
of e-learning based pocket book according to experts 
and how the student’s response with the existence of 
pocket  book  based  on  E-learning  on  learning 
introductory course?. The purpose of this study is to: 
Know the  feasibility of the  product  in  the  form of 
pocket  book  based  on  E-learning and  to  know  the 
respond of students to the pocket book based on E-
learning for the introductory course of accounting.
