This study applied a Research and Development (R&D) method with ADDIE model. A set of questionnaires and observation data are used for product validity and product effectiveness analysis. The ICRS was very feasible, with expert validity of 95% and expert practicality of 93%. The effectiveness of the ICRS is proven.
