| Summary: | In research and development, often half of the resources are spent on solving
optimization problems. With the rapidly rising costs of making experiments, it is essential
that the optimization is done with as few experiments as possible. This is one important
reason why Design of Experiments (DOE) is needed. In certain field there are
circumstances in which the experimenter would like to screen factors to decide which are
the most important. In these situations the engineering model of DOE is useful. These all
signify the importance of DOE. Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) and Latin
Square Design are DOE blocking techniques. This project has a vision of educating its
viewer through a different environment of learning the subject of RCBD and Latin
Square Design. Materials are explored from various resources that can be found in books
and in the internet just to ensure the webpage provide sufficient and refer to reliable
information. It proved that the materials included in the webpage combines all resources
so that the webpage is ensured to cover entire concept behind both topics. With
interactive links to relate one slide to the other, viewers are directed clearly from one
page to the other until they have covered the whole topics in RCBD and Latin Square
Design that stated in the research scope. Besides, there are also sections to test the
understanding of the viewer that are named after “Do It Yourself”. In this section,
complete solutions are provided for each problem, so that the viewer can check their
solution with the solutions provided in the webpage. Other than learning, there are also
slides provided for relaxations that are named after “Take 5”. These slides provide
refreshment for viewers because its contents can lighten up their mind. Moreover, the
overall structure of the webpage is well organized and viewers are ensured not to getting
lost while surfing the webpage. The whole webpage design, development and its content
are arranged in a way that is hoped to facilitate and add up to viewers’ awareness of the
concept behind the application of RCBD and Latin Square Design. Above all, the
webpage is expected to give new and clear lessons for those who are not familiar with the
subject and also add up to current knowledge of the subject for those who familiar with
the subject. It is also hoped that the webpage can be recommended as one of the useful
resources for RCBD and Latin Square Design. |
