PROTOTYPE OF MOLECULAR BIOLOGY COURSEWARE FOR INCLUSIVE EDUCTION SYSTEM: AN INSTRUCTIONAL INTERFACE

Abstract

This paper provides a research approach in developing an e-learning environment for inclusive learners. By capturing and modeling the multimedia 3-D knowledge into an instructional interface for teaching and assessing Molecular Biology Courseware for student in distance learning. The research proposed and developed a Conceptual Design Model Courseware for Inclusive Education System, called C4IES. The experimental result from the subject experts that used the proposed prototype has shown a great potential in the courseware usage. Where, out of 10 experts, 90% agreed that the proposed Multimedia environment has demonstrated a high usability in enhancing molecular concept (DNA) and practical skills of student in distance learning and also for regular students in practicing the laboratory task while away from on-campus environment. This could also be as guidance to the developer or anyone who intends to develop courseware for an inclusive environment.
