Description
Summary:Adaptive web tutoring application is a suitable approach to adapt the learner to its learning environment. Adaptation for web tutoring is based on modality and affective aspects of the learner. In this technology era, multimedia had become very important in our daily life in order to make our life more interesting. Hence, there is a huge influence of multimedia throughout the whole world which includes in education technology. This research project is about the research on an adaptive web tutoring system by using multimedia elements such as image, text, animation, video and audio for learning Biology. This system prototype which focus on photosynthesis topic will be used to test on a group of Form 6 students and the result will be compared to the conventional teaching method. T-test is used to conclude the results of both experiments to support the hypothesis. T-test result shows the effectiveness of adaptive web tutoring system compared to conventional teaching method effectively
