Abstract—From observations in the last three years, the average score of informatics engineering students at Universitas Pancasila in Mathematics is 70% below 50. The above analysis requires research to develop a learning model using structured assignment method–based modules to improve calculus learning outcomes. The modules are equipped with an understanding containing examples of questions and their solutions with sequential stages and structured assignments as practice questions that must be submitted before the subsequent lesson begins. They are also equipped with pretests and posttests. Learning Management System (LMS) and Information and Communications Technology (ICT)–based support this blended learning. The research method uses the research and development (RandD) method with its implementation combining two learning development models, namely, the Borg and Gall and Dick and Carey models. The effectiveness of the product was tested by four experts to determine the validity of the test. The application of the calculus learning model employing structured assignment method–based modules is effective for improving calculus learning outcomes. The results of the product effectiveness test revealed an increase of 20.33 points, with an increase in the average score after using the module of 87.67, with the number of students declared complete by 96% compared to the average score before of 67.34, with the number of students declared complete by 70%. The improvement in the calculus learning outcomes appears significant. Therefore, this model can be used for offline and online learning.
