| Summary: | One of the most rapidly changing and exciting areas of education in the world
today is the development of computer-based teaching materials, especially interactive
multimedia programs that nm on personal computers. These new technologies offered
students and teachers access to materials as never before. Through the condensed storage
capabilities of computers, multimedia can deliver large amounts of information in ways
that make it manageable, approachable, and useful. The given title for this research paper
is the development of a multimedia courseware for teaching secondary school fractions
using constructivism approach. This research was carried out to replace the existing dull
and uninteresting method of teaching and learning in the classroom to a more interesting
and effective one by applying constructivism approach in developing the prototype. The
courseware was developed for Form 1 students. The courseware covered the basic sub
topics in fractions including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. For each
sub topic, students had to go through five modules which are orientation module, idea
blazing module, idea restructuring module, application module and reflection module
during the process of learning fractions. The research was conducted according to the
ADDIE Model which includes the analysis, design, development and implementation
phase. For information gathering purposes, an interview was conducted, and secondary
sources were obtained. |
