ABSTRACT

Undeniable in these modern times, information and technology are something that

is very important and inseparable from human life. We get information from various

sources such as internet, magazines, books, newspapers and so on. The most commonly

used medium is through the medium of Internet mediation. Indeed, mobile applications are

a technology that has been increasingly addressed lately. The advancements in smartphone-

based technology lately have greatly affected the development of several other areas,

including the teaching of geographic subjects.

Thus, the development of this mobile application was developed to help students

and teachers in learning as an additional tool for teaching and learning. This application is

developed in the form of animation and multimedia to attract students to explore the subject

so it is easy to understand and understand. In addition, this geographic learning is necessary

to help students better understand. GEOGRAPHY: Land Types And Its Formation is one

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

1.1 PROJECT BACKGROUND

In the current development of technology, most communities cannot escape the use

of Information Technology and Communications (ICT) sophistication and efficiency. This

phenomenon occurs because humankind face various changes and progress from the era of

agriculture to the industrial era and subsequently into the era of ICT. This paradigm shift

has led to the need for a change in many aspects of lives including educational system in

line with current technology development. It is time for ICT usage skills in the teaching

and learning process including Geography to be emphasized and prioritized. Furthermore,

with the development of the latest geography curriculum that requires high level of

application and thinking skills, it requires changes in the teaching and learning of

Page 17: GEOGRAPHY TYPE OF LAND AND ITS FORMATIONSecure Site myfik.unisza.edu.my/www/fyp/fyp18sem1/report/... · 2018. 12. 23. · pembelajaran geografi ini adalah perlu untuk membantu pelajar

Geography that involves critical and creative thinking through a combination of

constructivism, contextual and fieldwork studies.

This “GEOGRAPHY : Type of land and its formation” is a project to develop

learning using multimedia in mobile applications. This project aims to make it easier for

users to understand the subject. For example, with this mobile applications, users will have

the opportunity to be more familiar with what is being learned since the project that

embraces multimedia elements help users to better understand the subject matters. Not only

the multimedia elements will attract users’ interests in viewing and memorizing, it will also

help them comprehend the process of learning. Additionally, the project is easy to use can

where users learn the subject materials any time, at their own space.

A landform is a feature on the earth's surface that is part of the terrain. Douglass, A.

E. (1935). Dating Pueblo Bonito and other ruins of the Southwest (No. 1). National

Geographic Society. Mountains, hills, plateaus, and plains are the four major types of

landforms. Minor landforms include buttes, canyons, valleys, and basins. Tectonic plate

movement under the Earth can create landforms by pushing up mountains and hills.

Dietrich, W. E., & Perron, J. T. (2006). The search for a topographic signature of

life. Nature, 439(7075), 411. Erosion by water and wind can wear down land and create

landforms like valleys and canyons. Both processes happen over a long period of time,

sometimes millions of years. Malaysia has many beautiful terrains and ranges, such as the

Titiwangsa Range, the Crocker Ranges and the highlands of Kapuas Hulu Mountains with

varying altitudes. So this project aims to encouraging students to use modern technology

Page 18: GEOGRAPHY TYPE OF LAND AND ITS FORMATIONSecure Site myfik.unisza.edu.my/www/fyp/fyp18sem1/report/... · 2018. 12. 23. · pembelajaran geografi ini adalah perlu untuk membantu pelajar

1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT

The emphasis on memorization techniques among students might cause students

not to think scientifically. Geography is a new subject to Form One students and sometimes

they find it difficult to understand certain concepts or prone to misinterpret a concept.

Teachers need to diversify the methods of teaching and learning by using more teaching

aids in the process of teaching and learning. Therefore, this project serves as an aid to the

process of teaching and learning in Geography by providing fun learning via interactive

mobile applications to help students understand the subject materials.

1.3 OBJECTIVES

The main objective of this project is to develop an accessible mobile applications

for students to learn geography regarding land and its formation. The main objective can

be divided into three, that are :

➢ To design an interactive mobile apps for students to learn geography subject

regarding land and its formation.

➢ To develop mobile applications using multimedia elements which is Text, image,

audio, video, and animation.

➢ To evaluate the mobile apps.

1.4 SCOPE OF THE PROJECT

Scope is very important in every project that to be developed since the scope will

facilitate the selection and determination of elements and contents in the project. This

project is intended to be used by Geography teachers and Form 1 to Form 3 students. It

aims to help students in recognizing the types of land and its formation in Malaysia. The

scope of the project can be defined as in the scope of :

A. Students :

➢ Can achieve the desired learning goals.

➢ Can nurture creative thinking in geography.

➢ Easier to understand and interpret geographic concepts using multimedia

elements.

B. Geography teachers :

➢ Can help facilitate the process of learning by providing appropriate guidelines

or explanation.

1.5 LIMITATION

There are also limitations to the one of mobile applications. Firstly, small screens

on touch devices results in reduced context. This tend to be more difficult for the users to

get an overview of the page, compare various options, and remember prior content. Besides

Page 21: GEOGRAPHY TYPE OF LAND AND ITS FORMATIONSecure Site myfik.unisza.edu.my/www/fyp/fyp18sem1/report/... · 2018. 12. 23. · pembelajaran geografi ini adalah perlu untuk membantu pelajar

6

that on touch devices people use their fingers to click links and buttons on the screen, which

significantly decrease the accuracy of clicks. This is also known as the “fat finger problem”.

1.6 REPORT ORGANIZATION

This report is organized as follows. The first chapter provides brief introduction of

the project. Chapter 2 summarizes previous research regarding the technique to learn the

subject of geography with respect to the type of land and its formation and also to identify

what are the issues, drawbacks, and contributions from the previous researches. Chapter 3

discusses the methodology used in this study. Chapter 4 focuses on the analysis and the

design of the project. Finally, summarizes the contributions and the future works of this

study.

1.7 EXPECTED RESULTS

The expected results for Geography : type of land and its formation using

multimedia is to be implemented in the mobile applications. That can facilitate the process

of teaching and learning. Furthermore, this mobile applications can help the students to

improve themselves in geography.

CHAPTER 2

LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1 INTRODUCTION

Literature review is very significant in any research process prior to developing a

system including a mobile applications. The review has been made on read media and

existing websites as reference materials for the mobile applications project to be developed

that are "Geography: land type and its formation". It was discovered that the sources for

teaching and learning are mostly in the form of reading materials that are not suitable for

the students. Through observations of reading materials such as power point slides and

textbooks, there are several disadvantages, among which is too much use of texts making

them less attractive. Additionally, some references are simply static and without any

interactions.

2.2 COMPARISON ON EXISTING PROJECTS.

A review of the current learning courseware has been conducted to find out how

other developer implemented their projects. As a results, a few existing interactive project

courseware have been found.

First, The World Geography Games as shown in Figure 2.1. This website provides

simple geography learning games regarding the world. Patterson, T. C. (2007). Google

Earth as a (not just) geography education tool. Journal of Geography, 106(4), 145-152.

This website will bring you many entertaining and stimulating map games to improve

geographical knowledge. The quizzes include questions about countries, capitals, flags,

regions, bodies of water, mountains, deserts, metropolitan areas and other topics that will

test and challenge everyone who wants to explore and learn about the world.

Figure 2. 1 The World Geography Games website

The philosophy behind the Geoparks concept was first introduced at the Digne

Convention in 1991 as a means to protect and promote geological heritage and sustainable

local development through a global network of territories containing geology of

outstanding value. Jones, C. (2008). History of geoparks. Geological Society, London,

Special Publications, 300(1), 273-277.

Secondly, Abberley and Malvern Hills Geopark website as shown in Figure 2.2,

users can read learn about geography. This website has many functions such as, home,

news, calendar and so on. This is a Geopark that can be enjoyed by all and provides the

opportunity to experience and learn about its impressive landscape and all to be found

within it – geology, wildlife, archaeology, art and heritage.

10

Third, National Geographic as shown in Figure 2.3. The website allows users to

search any information about geography and without having to login.

Through the world’s best scientists, photographers, journalists, and filmmakers,

National Geographic captivates and entertains a global community through television

channels, magazines, children’s media, travel expeditions, books, maps, consumer

products, location-based entertainment and experiences, and some of the most engaging

digital and social media platforms in the world. A joint venture with 21st Century Fox,

National Geographic reinvests 27% of proceeds to help fund the conservation and

education efforts of the National Geographic Society.

Figure 2. 3 The National Geographic website

11

Lastly, the website for Oxford Owl is shown in Figure 2.4. This website gives

information to children about learning geography Especially the earth. Oxford Owl is an

award-winning website from Oxford University Press, created to support children’s

learning both at home and at school. Navigating the education system can be tricky

sometimes. The things children are expected to learn and the way they are taught at school

have changed since many of us were at school. As parents, we all want the very best for

our child, but finding the right advice and resources can be a challenge.

Oxford Owl for Home is written specially for parents to help be as well-informed

as you can be, making sure best equipped to help their child have the smoothest journey

through school. From learning to read to understanding a tricky bit of maths, from the first

day at school to making sense of exams, Oxford Owl can provide the important

information.

Figure 2. 4 The Oxford Owl website

CHAPTER 3

METHODOLOGY

3.0 INTRODUCTION

This chapter describes the research method in developing an accessible and usable

mobile applications for teacher and student geography. Methodology is the set of complete

guideline that includes the models of tools to carry out research or design activities.

Methodology splits the work into phases of activities for better planning and management.

GEOGRAPHY : Type of land and its formation mobile applications development use

ADDIE model as the methodology. It is a systematic way of accomplishing certain tasks

and is defined as a collection of procedures, techniques, tools and documentation aid that

helps a software developer to speed up and simplify the mobile applications development

process. Mobile applications requirement which include tools and software that are used in

mobile applications development are also described in this chapter.

3.1 ADDIE MODEL

Addie is an acronym for the five stages of a development process: Analysis, Design,

Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The ADDIE model relies on each stage

being done in the given order but with a focus on reflection and iteration. The model gives

you a streamlined, focused approach that provides feedback for continuous improvement.

The great strength of the ADDIE Model is implied in the title we give it. A model is a

template, a structure, an approach to be used. Bichelmeyer, B. (2005). The ADDIE model:

A metaphor for the lack of clarity in the field of IDT. IDT Record.

Figure 3. 1 ADDIE Model Phase

3.2 METHODOLOGY PHASE

The explanation of each phase involves for developing GEOGRAPHY : Type of

land and its formation mobile applications as below :

3.2.1 Requirements Analysis

The analysis phase is the first stage in the development module of this project. In

this phase, an analysis will be conducted to find the problems that exist for the development

of type of land and its formation applications. Among the important things analyzed are the

types of terrains found in Malaysia and the elements that need to be there to entice users to

use this interactive application. Through this phase, the process of developing this

interactive application will be much easier especially to set the information and choose the

appropriate contents and elements.

3.2.2 Design

The second phase is a design that explains the design of interactive applications in

the form of clearer storyboards. This phase will also describe the technologies and tools

involved. This level focuses more on the sketches of the storyboard that have been made to

tell the whole idea of interactive application development. Additionally, there is also an

overview of the overall appearance, overall structure of interactive applications, images,

texts, buttons and content of content that can be viewed more clearly as a storyboard as a

Page 32: GEOGRAPHY TYPE OF LAND AND ITS FORMATIONSecure Site myfik.unisza.edu.my/www/fyp/fyp18sem1/report/... · 2018. 12. 23. · pembelajaran geografi ini adalah perlu untuk membantu pelajar

17

guide. Storyboard also helps the development process so that every design used

corresponds to the content of the bricks.

3.2.3 Development

This phase is the process of developing the entire design and being a guideline for

the authoring process. The development process is a process where all elements will be

incorporated into interactive applications using Adobe Flash CS6, Adobe Photoshop and

Adobe Illustrator. This software is selected because it is capable of producing interactive

applications with navigation. In this development stage, development also uses all agreed

approaches or designs at the design stage.

3.2.4 Implementation

Interactive applications that have been developed will be tested by the supervisor

for clarification and opinion. The purpose of this phase is to detect minor errors that may

not be realized during the project development process.

3.2.5 Evaluation

The last phase is evaluation the process of obtaining user feedback on the content,

3.4 APPLICATION DESIGN

This stages it explains in detail the entire sketch of the storyboard, design and the

technologies involved. This level is more focused on designs that have been rolled out in

the storyboards that the developers have created. In this applications it is presented with an

overview of the appearance, shape, structure, graphics, text, content and technology

involved.

3.4.1 Project Implementation Approach

Interactive applications developed according to designs, storyboards and navigation

that have been made to facilitate the development phase because they are systematic and

organized.

The approach used in this application is an exploration method. This method is a

self-colonization method in which users are able to interact with this interactive

applications. Therefore, the navigation buttons provided by the interactive applications for

the user will enable the user to use the interactive applications as they wish.

3.4.2 Navigation Map.

This map explains the flow of interactive applications and the content they contain

in the stream. It is important that users can understand the concepts of this application

properly.

3.4.3 Storyboard

Every application that you want to develop should have its own storyboard. It will

be the main guideline in the authoring process of the application. The story sketches explain

the elements to be used and the arrangement of elements in an interface so that the app can

be developed exactly according to the storyboard. In fact it is also used as a reference for

the required content. Please refer to attachment A.

3.5 CHAPTER SUMMARY

In this chapter, we have discuss the general methodology of design research that

was chosen as the major methodology to be followed when doing this study since from all

the phases in this methodology, it provided four general outputs for design research :

proposal. Design specification, application, performance measures and the result.
