Interactive E-Book Design and Development to Support Literacy Learning for Language Minority Students

摘要

Interactive multimedia application as e-books has benefits and capabilities for enhancing learning rate and increasing students' concentration and involvement in the learning activities. This study presents interactive e-book design areas to support literacy learning for language minority students within the primary school level. There are three main components of design framework including multimedia design, interactive design, and learning design. Moreover, the researcher attempts to design all three components based on the cultural theme to help language minority students reflect their own cultures and begin to understand the cultures of the language that they are learning. The prototype consists of two main modules including manual module and automatic module. Furthermore, the researcher would like students to interact with the program through interactive whiteboard as a cooperative tool in the classroom. The interactive e-book is expected to be an alternative educational tool to solve the learning problems of language minority students.
