Abstract

The objectives of this experimental research were: 1) to develop Web-based Instruction (WBI) on “Op-Amp and Linear IC Simulation Using Multisim Version 11.0 Case Study of Chainat Technical College, 2) to evaluate the developed WBI, 3) to compare the students’ learning achievements before and after using the developed WBI, and 4) to find the students’ satisfaction after the developed WBI. The sample of this research was 30 students in Vocational Diploma at Chainat Technical College in the academic year 2/2012, selected by purposive sampling method. The tools used in this research were the six lessons of the developed WBI using Moodle, pretest, exercises, posttest and worksheets. The results of this research were shown as follows: 1) the developed WBI included 6 learning lessons. 2) the efficiency of the WBI was 83.14/80.20 higher than the criteria. 3) the students effectiveness after using the developed WBI was significantly higher than before using it at .05. 4) the students’ satisfaction was at a good level.
