Abstract

Multimedia technology has opened up new opportunities and exploration to be exploited in learning environment. This technology has the ability to integrate, combine, and deliver various media such as text, graphic, audio, video, animation and interactivity which can help make teaching and learning process more effective and rewarding. However, a multimedia courseware development high-quality and cost-effective is a major challenge that needs to be addressed and focused if we want to integrate the multimedia application a real success. This study presents development of a multimedia courseware using 2D animation for PT3 students in secondary school in assisting them to learn about the Bintang Hati novel using visualization technique. The development courseware is an alternative of the conventional learning method using chalk and talk. Integrating the multimedia elements in learning method will make the learning environment more interesting and presentable. ADDIE model has been used as guidelines in developing the courseware. Each phases and activities of the model are discussed in detail based on the development process involved. The methodology for courseware quality assurance and its relationship with the development process model have been presented. By using the observation, questionnaire, and interview method in data collection, the result of the successful courseware development is also presented.
