| Summary: | <p>This study aimed to develop the Factorisation and Algebraic Fractions Mobile-learning</p><p>(FAM) module and test its effectiveness on Form Two students' achievement and</p><p>interest in algebra. This study uses the design and development research (DDR)</p><p>approach comprised of three phases, namely, (i) need analysis, (ii) design and</p><p>development, and (iii) evaluation. The FAM module was developed using the ADDIE</p><p>and Mobile Edu model. Meanwhile, to evaluate the effectiveness of the FAM module,</p><p>a quasi-experimental design was used, specifically the pretest-posttest non-equivalent</p><p>control group design involving 69 Form Two students from a secondary school in Kuala</p><p>Lumpur chosen using a clustered random sampling technique. Data collected were</p><p>analysed using descriptive statistics, namely mean and standard deviation. Meanwhile,</p><p>inferential statistics, namely t-test, MANOVA, and Pearson correlation, were used for</p><p>hypothesis testing. This finding shows that the FAM module has good validity based</p><p>on experts' consensus. Next, the results of the t-test revealed a significant difference</p><p>whereby the mean achievement score of the treatment group was higher than the control</p><p>group. The MANOVA test using Pillai's Trace revealed a significant difference in the</p><p>three constructs of interest (positive valence, negative valence, and time) between the</p><p>control and treatment groups. Subsequently, the Pearson correlation test revealed a</p><p>significant, strong positive relationship between students' achievement in Factorisation</p><p>and Algebraic Fractions and interest in learning algebra. In conclusion, the FAM</p><p>module developed could improve students' achievement in Factorisation and Algebraic</p><p>Fractions and positively affect students' interest in learning algebra. The implication of</p><p>the study suggests that the developed FAM module shows that mobile learning can</p><p>improve students' achievement in Factorisation and Algebraic Fractions and interest in</p><p>algebra.</p> |
