The Development of Teaching Aids through Websites for Information Technology for Learning

Abstract

The purposes of this research were to develop and investigate the effectiveness of computer assisted instruction via the internet on “Information Technology for Learning"; compare students' learning achievement between the pretest and the post test; compare students' learning achievement between the group learning with computer assisted instruction via the internet and the group learning with conventional method;

and investigate students' satisfaction with computer assisted instruction via the internet. The subjects were the 1st year students in the academic year 2011 in bachelor's degree

of physical education at Institute of Physical Education Suphanburi Campus. The subjects used in this study were selected by cluster sampling method. The subjects were divided into two groups: the experimental group comprised 40 subjects and the control group comprised 40 subjects. On process of developing computer assisted instruction via the internet on “Information Technology for Learning”, the lesson content was first selected. It was divided into sub-topics. General and behavioral objectives were defined to discover all sub-topics. The behavioral objectives were analyzed. The seventy-item test was constructed and used to find out the efficiency with Index of Item Objective Congruence (IOC) at 0.67-1.00, a difficulty level (p) at 0.40-0.80, a discrimination level (n) at 0.20-0.65 and reliability of a test (KR-20) at 0.84. The findings revealed as the following: 1) The research was found that the computer assisted instruction via the internet on "Information Technology for Learning" met the efficiency at 83.05/82.10 level of criteria standard, which was higher than set standard at 80/80. 2) The students' learning achievement of computer assisted instruction via the internet on “Information Technology for Learning” of the post test was higher than the pretest and showed statistically different at the .05 level of significance. 3) The result of learning achievement comparison between the group learning with computer assisted instruction via the internet and the group learning with conventional method was found that the learning achievement mean score of the two groups was statistically different at the .05 level of significance, and the mean score of the students learning with computer assisted instruction via the internet was higher than the the mean score of student learning with conventional method. 4) As a whole, students were highly satisfied with computer assisted instruction via the internet on "Information Technology for Learning".
