The development of web based instruction CAI course using project-based learning model

Abstract

The purposes of this research were: 1) to develop web-based instruction (WBI) on CAI course using project-based learning technique; 2) to evaluate if the WBI meets an 80/80 efficiency criterion; 3) to compare the students’ learning achievements by pre-test and post-test; and 4) to examine student satisfaction towards the WBI. The sampling group, selected by purposive sampling, was 30 grade 12 students who registered in the 2nd semester of academic year 2012 at Sarasas Witaed Bangbon School. The research instruments consisted of ten units of WBI; a learning achievement test administered before and after the instruction; and the evaluation form of the student projects. The statistical tests employed to verify the efficiency of the WBI were the E1/E2 efficiency index and t-test. The result of this research found that the efficiency of WBI was 84.56/82.33, which was higher than standard criterion 80/80. There was significantly higher learning achievement of the students in the post-test than in the pre-test at .05 levels. The learners’ opinion after using the WBI was very satisfactory.
