This article briefly reviews the history of approaches to the individualization of instruction, from earlier “system-controlled” methodologies to the current multimedia/hypermedia-based “learner-controlled” approaches. Some of the reasons for the general failure of earlier approaches are analyzed. This leads to the general conclusion that there is no guarantee that the new approaches will be successful, and that several key areas of research and development require attention. The article concludes with a review of current research on one aspect of the suggested agenda - the support of computer-based learning exercises by means of electronic networking, to create a form of “virtual group discussion” environment capable of supporting individual learners with intelligent, constructive feedback and guidance.

This is a brief review of the history of usability and a discussion of usability in developing a computer-based learning program (CBLP). According to ISO 9241, usability is defined as the extent to which a product can be used by specified users to achieve specified goals with effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction in a specified context of use (Bevan, 2001). The main focus of usability in this article is concerned with the user interface and interaction design. To create a usable computer-based learning program, one needs to understand the definition of usability and the goals of usability. Besides achieving usability goals, a usable CBLP should also be able to attain user experience goals. Design principles can be used to develop a CBLP featured with usability. Two design models will be discussed in this review.

The success of teaching and learning activities is determined by one of the methods and media of learning. This study aims to determine the needs of learning media, develop learning media based on computer games, and determine the effectiveness of learning media based on computer games on students' motivation and interest in learning. This type of research is Research and Development (RD), referring to the ADDIE development model. Data collection techniques using observation and questionnaires. The data analysis technique is done by analyzing the questionnaire. The results showed that students needed new learning media with the criteria of using computer technology, game-based, having a colorful display, involving an active role in student participation, easy to operate, equipped with characters, login, and voice access rights. A computer game-based learning media application has been developed called "BEBEB" with a very proper assessment from Media Experts and Material Experts. The effectiveness of the "BEBEB" application as a learning media based on computer games increased learning motivation by 16.5% and interest in learning by 24.33%. The study results indicate that the development of computer-based learning media as a strategy to increase students' motivation and interest in learning at SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Andong Boyolali has been able to be implemented properly. This implies that teachers need to provide learning media that can arouse students' motivation and interest in learning, one of which is using computer game-based learning media.

<span>Given the significant investment by tertiary institutions in the design and creation of computer based teaching and learning resources, it is important to continually evaluate outcomes from their implementation. Within this context, this study reports on the use and perceived usefulness of educational multimedia resources and communications technologies within a single course in a first year biology program. Using an action research model as the basis for the evaluation, data of expected and actual use and usefulness of the resources were collected from students using surveys and focus groups. While the majority of students indicated the multimedia resources were useful for learning activities through providing off campus access to supplementary and relevant materials, others did not find the resources useful, and some did not use them at all. In addition, the use of communications technologies was greatest for social interactions rather than course specific activities. Use was not a function of students' access to computers or the Internet. These findings highlight that online resources will not necessarily generate value added learning for all learners, and that programs will need to offer a variety of learning resources that target different learning styles and enable a mix of off campus and on campus opportunities. Other important factors also emerged from the study, in particular the barriers that learners encounter when working with computers and the integration of these resources into the teaching curriculum. In addition, the study highlighted the value of action research as a means of conducting evaluations of computer based learning resources.</span>

Our study evaluates students&rsquo; approaches to and perceptions of the use of hands-on at-home laboratory kits (HALK) experiments, open-source computer-based simulations (OSCBS), and their combination (OSCBS-HALK) in undergraduate introductory asynchronous online physics courses. Anonymous survey data from students who had completed online physics courses with labs based on simulations, at-home lab kits, or both were collected using a modified version of the Learn Questionnaire (MVLQ). Findings in this study indicate that among the six scales (interest and relevance; peer support; staff enthusiasm and support; teaching for understanding; alignment; and constructive feedback) used to measure students&rsquo; perceptions of the teaching and learning environments, interest and relevance, peer support, and teaching for understanding had statistically significant different means across the three lab types. Post-hoc comparisons using the Tukey HSD test for the interest and relevance scale indicated that students viewed using a combination approach of OSCBS and HALK labs (M = 3.98, SD = 0.61) more significantly positive than using computer-simulated labs only (M = 3.56, SD = 0.75). Compared to other labs, computer-simulated labs were perceived to lead to a deep approach to learning. However, they had the lowest interest and relevance, peer support, and alignment ranking among the three lab groups. Thus, developing strategies to improve students&rsquo; engagement and ability to translate the simulations into physical processes is recommended for OSCBS.

When a process of teaching and learning activities by teachers is boring and uninteresting for students, so long as it can be ascertained that the message of values, morals, and knowledge from these lessons is difficult for students to understand and required a teaching method in the form of computer-based learning applications the game. Management of learning must describe efforts to plan or control teaching activities using teaching concepts and principles so that the objectives of teaching and learning activities are achieved more effectively, efficiently and productively and must be initiated from choosing strategies and plans, of course ending with assessment and can be used as consideration make further teaching improvements. Learning Batak Toba script by using the game model will increase students' enthusiasm and not be bored and train their memory to memorize or remember Batak Toba script and connect them to latin script because the questions that appear will never be the same and keep changing because they are randomized with linear congruent method (LCM). This learning model will add to the existing learning model in the form of multimedia-based applications.

Teaching and learning are transitioning from traditional classroom-based approaches to computer-based learning environments. The demand for technology innovations generate from the new student generation who was born into a technology-driven era termed digital natives. While a large majority of current teachers come from a less technical generation termed digital immigrants. A teacher cannot reap the benefits of online teaching approaches if they are not trained on how to convert traditional methods to online learning and do not understand the available technologies. This chapter covers e-learning paradigms, e-tools, and e-assessments for converting traditional approaches to online environments.

In a general sense, the origin of computer-based learning methods as they have developed internationally derived from correspondence instruction. In the United States, certain problems drove the development of alternative forms of higher education such as correspondence instruction at the end of the 19th century, including geographical separation from sources of higher education, demands of work and military service, lack of access for women, minorities, and the handicapped, religious convictions, and limitations of the curriculum.
