DEVELOPMENT OF INTERACTIVE MULTIMEDIA ON GENERAL PHYSICS I FOR PHYSICS PROSPECTIVE TEACHERS

The purpose of this research was to develop interactive multimedia based visual learning style on General Physics I course. The characteristics of interactive multimedia consists of presentation, text, video, simulation, animation by adapting the visual learning style of
students. This research used research development model 3-D, namely, Define, Design, and Develop. The details of the stages were: (1) the literature review and need assessment, (2) formulation of competences indicators, (3) formulation of learning model, (4) formulation of the IM design, (4) the development of story boards, (5) obtaining relevant files, video, graphics/animation, and audio production, (6) authoring and debugging, (7) validating by 3 experts and giving questionnaire to student. Preliminary study results indicated that learning process in general physics I course tend to emphasize mastery of physics concepts mathematically and do not adapt student learning style difference. Validation results revealed that the developed interactive multimedia design was valid and results of student questionnaire showed a good responses. It should be concluded that the interactive multimedia was feasible and suitable to be implemented in General Physics I course.
