The development of a computer assisted instruction package with tutorial through e-Iearning on computer technology curriculum

Purposes of the research were to design and develop Computer Assisted Instruction Package with tutorial through e-Iearning on computer technology curriculum and to find out efficiencies effectiveness and learners satisfaction towards the package. The research tools were: 1) The Computer Instruction Package on Database Management System SUbject 2) Achievement tests 3) Quality assessment and evaluation form for multimedia software and 4) questionnaire of learners satisfaction. Sampling groups composed of 50 Bachelor second year students from Faculty of Science and Technology Program Information Technology and Computer Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon. Research results revealed that the efficiency of the Computer Instruction Package was at 82.50/82.56 corresponding with 80/80 criteria. Analysis of pre-test and post-test scores found that the effectiveness after the process (Epost) was at 82.56 it was higher than before the process (Epre) which was at 14.62. Therefore the Computer Instruction Package on Program Design and Development could increase the students learning effectiveness up to 67.94 corresponding with 60 criteria. Mean of satisfaction of the sampling groups was rather at a high level (4.28). It could be concluded that the Computer Assisted Instruction Package with tutorial through e-Iearning on computer technology curriculum had the efficiency that could used for self study.

CALL: Advantages and Limitations
CALL: Advantages and Limitations

Presently the application of computer technologies for pedagogical purposes have been spectacularly realised across a variety of disciplines. In terms of foreign language teaching and learning; researchers educators and teachers are aware of the increasingly prominent role of computer-assisted language learning (CALL). The article therefore manifests interesting research findings and opinions concerning computer usage in the sphere of language education. In the first section the emphasis is put on history and new trends of CALL usage. Then computer and language learning and teaching are discussed through contrastive points of view based on a literature study of researchers and educators involved in language pedagogy. Instead of reviewing extensive advantages of CALL for both teachers and learners limitations are also discussed particularly for the teachers to gain a critical insight as to how computer technologies may affect language learners and classrooms. Finally suggestions and recommendations for integrating CALL into language classroom are provided in order to maximise the exploitation of computer technologies to its full potential.
