Development of multimedia computer instruction program on information services and information searching for information services and information searching

Abstract

The research aims were 1) to develop and find out the efficiencies of the multimedia computer Instruction program on Information Services and Information Searching for Information Services and Information Searching to be efficient in accordance with defined 80/80 criteria, 2) to compare the learning achievement before and after learning of students who studied with the multimedia computer Instruction program on Information Services and Information Searching for Information Services and Information Searching, and 3) to find out the students’ satisfaction towards the program. A purposive sampling technique was employed to obtain the subjects of this study who were 30 Engineering students of Electrical Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Rajamanagala University of Technology Pranakhon. They were registered in the second semester of academic year 2013. For instruments were as follows: the multimedia computer Instruction program on Information Services and Information Searching for Information Services and Information Searching, the evaluation form of the multimedia computer instruction program, the students’ achievement tests, and the questionnaire of students’ satisfaction. After the experiment, the scores obtained from the test were analyzed by using percentage, mean, standard deviation and t-test. The results of the study showed that the efficiency of the multimedia computer Instruction program on Information Services and Information Searching for Information Services and Information Searching was 81.22/83.55 which was higher than the specified criteria of 80/80. The scores of after learning with the multimedia computer Instruction program were significantly higher than the scores of before learning at .05 level. And, the students revealed that they were highly satisfied with the program.
