| Summary: | Learners often struggle with the complex and interconnected terminology in database environments and data modeling, leading to difficulties in understanding and applying key concepts effectively. In addition, a preliminary study has revealed that inadequate classroom facilities, varying learning styles, and the use of external resources that are not tailored to the syllabus have negatively impacted the understanding of theory-based topics. This study aims to achieve several objectives: identifying requirements of an e-learning application for Introduction to Database, design and develop the e-learning application and evaluating the e-learning application’s functionality and usability. This research has been initiated by preliminary analysis on the application requirements based on literature review and surveys. The design phase followed, producing essential diagrams which are navigation maps and storyboards. The development was utilizing Adobe Animate, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Audition and Adobe Photoshop for producing the application for learning database. Lastly, the functionality and usability of the application was verified through testing. Usability testing involved expert evaluation with input from three experts. The results acquired give a positive indicator for further implementation. Further evaluation with 30 respondents from the target users has produced results indicated high satisfaction with the application’s overall usability, particularly in visual design and self-assessment and learnability constructs, which achieved the highest mean scores of 4.80 with standard deviations of 0.41 and 0.48, respectively. In conclusion, E-DBLEARN offers university students studying database courses an interactive, multimedia-rich platform expected to boost engagement, understanding, and self-directed learning, while equipping lecturers with an effective tool to teach theoretical concepts in the database courses. Gagne’s Instructional Design Model was incorporated to ensure that learning is effective, efficient, and structured by guiding the instructional process through a systematic approach. |
