Extended Study of Undergraduate Students’ Usage of Mobile Application for Individual Differentiation Learning Support of Lecture-based General Education Subjects

Abstract

This is an investigation in the development and assessment of a mobile application that was developed for differentiated (Individualized) learning in support of lecture-based general education subjects. The mobile phone application was developed as a learning aid as a substantial number of students were experiencing difficulty in successfully completing these courses. The researcher developed the mobile phone application that contains uploaded course content from each course. This was used to create a summary of the lecture content from each course, in the form of infographics and linked ‘PDF files’ or soft copies of lecture materials. The researcher developed exercises that students could complete which later contributed to self-created content based on their understanding, skills, and interests. With use of the mobile application, 100% of the students successfully completed these courses. Moreover, the level of satisfaction in education among students was high with an average of 4.75. The standard deviation of 0.43 indicated that, concerning contemporary education, and the active learning atmosphere, effective learning can be achieved due to the development of learning innovation in the use of electronic devices, which give opportunities to students to use their creativity in problem solving, as based on their preferences, whilst demonstrating their understanding about lesson content.

Developing Gamification to Improve Mobile Learning in Web Design Course during the COVID-19 Pandemic

“…The experts can rate three possible scores: 1, 0, and -1, which were described in Table I. In the event that any of the indicators assessed by the IOC is 0.5 or higher, it means that the question is meet the objective, is consistent with the experts, and can be used for the questionnaire [28]- [31]. In this research, the questionnaire passed the evaluation with an IOC value that was more significant than or equal to 0.8.…”

“…The features in the mobile application were assessed by five experts specializing in the field of information technology and accounting. The Index of item objective congruence (IOC) was applied to the evaluation [12][13] [14] to determine scores. If the criteria measured by the IOC value of each indicator was higher than 0.5 (the highest IOC value is 1), it could be implied that the features met the objectives and possessed the contents suitable for the operation, showing that the features worked effectively.…”
