Popis: | Teachers have tried to teach their students by introducing text books along with verbal instructions in traditional education system. However, teaching and learning methods could be changed for developing Information and Communication Technology (ICT). It's time to adapt students with interactive learning system so that they can improve their learning, catching, and memorizing capabilities. It is indispensable to create high quality and realistic leaning environment for students. Visual learning can be easier to understand and deal with their learning. We developed visual learning materials (an overview of solar system) in the form of video for students of primary level using different multimedia application tools. The objective of this paper is to examine the impact of student’s abilities to acquire new knowledge or skills through visual learning materials and blended leaning that is integration of visual learning materials with teacher’s instructions. We visited a primary school in Dhaka city for this study and conducted teaching with three different groups of students (i) teacher taught students by traditional system on same materials and marked level of student’s ability to adapt by a set of questions (ii) another group was taught with only visual learning material and assessment was done with 15 questionnaires, (iii) the third group was taught with the video of solar system combined with teacher’s instructions and assessed with the same questionnaires. This integration of visual materials (solar system) with verbal instructions is a blended approach of learning. The interactive blended approach greatly promoted students ability of acquisition of knowledge and skills. Students response and perception were very positive towards the blended technique than the other two methods. This interactive blending leaning system may be an appropriate method especially for school children. |
