| Summary: | The advent of new technologies brings major changes in our way of life. These
advances might not be achievable without knowledge and the key to knowledge is
education. Nowadays, researchers are finding new ways in educating people as we are
faced with new challenges everyday. Education has been improving a lot compared to
years ago. Computers have taken the place as the learning and teaching tool and have
been considered as a need rather than a luxury. In parallel with this phenomenon, the
usage of multimedia has become common. It has also created a new interest of
developing learning strategies to accommodate education integrated in multimedia. In
relevant to that, this project concerns with the development of a courseware to teach
human senses using cognitive theory. The theory consists of six steps which
emphasizes on the learners actively construct their own understanding rather than be a
passive recipient of infomnation. The role of a teacher or instructor is to provide guide
and support such as corrective feedback which will enable the learner to create
accurate mental connections which later builds up knowledge in learner's mind. In
developing the project. Multimedia Project Development Cycle which consists of eight
phases has been used as the methodology.The target audiences for the project is
standard one students who's taking the science subject. The purpose is to create an
effective multimedia courseware for teaching human senses. The project has been
tested to a group of standard one students along with a few teachers and has received
good feedback. It was found that the cognitive theory is suitable in teaching human
senses. |
