SCOPE OF CONTENTS


• Thailand Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Policy Framework (2011-2020) or ICT 2020• According to the educational strategy no. 2 by Ministry

of Education.• George Siemens and Stephen Downes developed a

theory called connectivism defined as “A learning theory for the digital age”.

RESEARCH BACKGROUND


• The current study found the lack of comprehension in lessons among students at schools. Thus, this learning system was invented to assist students to learn more effectively in classrooms.

RESEARCH BACKGROUND


• To develop knowledge review system based on connectivism on cloud computing• To evaluate knowledge review

system based on connectivism on cloud computing

2.1) Problem Definition2.2) Analysis2.3) Design2.4) Development2.5) Testing 2.6) Implementation 2.7) Maintenance

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


This system development relied on the System Development Life Cycle: SDLC which included seven (7) stages in total.

2.1) Problem Definition

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


The study identified that some students lack of listening comprehension in classrooms and then could not successfully

complete their assignments. Thus, the knowledge review system based on connectivism on cloud computing was designed to help

them understand more of subjects and substances.

2.2) Analysis

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


Step 1: Developing scope

Step 2: Gathering or reviewing information and connecting knowledge from different sources

Step 3: Summary of findings 1

Step 4: Distributing all findings

Step 5: Analyzing, synthesizing, and exchanging opinions

Step 6: Summary of findings 2

Step 7: Presenting body of knowledgeFigure1: stages of designing system review system based on connectivism on cloud computing.

Study the typical learning process to find out necessities for the system design by observing

classrooms, studying related papers, and interviewing experts/specialists on review system based on connectivism on cloud

computing. The collected data was analyzed and conclusively synthesized into seven (7)

steps on developing the system as the following chart.

2.3) Design

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


In this process, the system was redesigned to facilitate its problem solving function and to meet the needs of users. The database was

enabled to effectively and efficiently store and recover information. Then, displays were designed for both input and

output screen followed by report format, functioning design, and defining user functions.

2.4) DevelopmentThe application program was then

tested to ensure an accurate function. Select suitable software to work with the seven (7)

steps which were previously designed.

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


2.4) Development

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


Step 1. Developing scopeIn this stage, procedure, and agreements were identified. Points of knowledge review were assigned by an instructor to suit learners.

2.4) Development

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


Step 2. Gathering or reviewing information and connecting knowledge from different sources.In this stage, knowledge and information could be gathered from a person plus from those external sources of information on the internet through application as well some input from exchanging opinions on the system.

Connectivism

2.4) Development

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


Step 3. Summary of findings 1This step explained how to answer the findings of the knowledge review system as

designed. The findings were invisible by other learners. (Answers with reliable references)

2.4) Development

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


Step 4. Distributing all findingsThis stage showed how each of every learner distributed knowledge or information they had

studied to others. Findings were invisible to all and they were able to exchange knowledge and opinions. Those with lack of information could enhance their knowledge from sharing information among peers.

2.4) Development

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


Step 5. Analyzing, synthesizing, and exchanging opinionsThis step was conducted to analyze and synthesize the findings for their accuracy and reliable references. Find out common contents of studied information to answer the points of knowledge review information through exchanging and sharing opinions.

2.4) Development

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


Step 6. Summary of findings 2This step explained how to answer the findings of the knowledge review system as designed. The opinions of learners were summarized after the analyzing and synthesizing of knowledge was completed.

2.4) Development

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


Step 7. Presenting body of knowledgeThis step explained the presentation of body of knowledge in through knowledge review academic paper. The academic paper was adjusted to suit the system design and learners.

2.5) Testing

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


This process required testing and rectification of the system in order to prove the system worked properly as per designed. The system was tested by five (5) specialists specializing in developing knowledge review system based on connectivism on cloud computing. The evaluation results pointed out as follows.

2.6) Implementation

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


In this process, the knowledge review system will be implemented in undergraduates of semester 1/2014 after being properly examined and evaluated by the specialists.

2.7) Maintenance

RESEARCH PROCEDURES


In this process, by keeping in contact with the service provider of cloud computing system, the application program will be maintained properly in order to function most efficiently over its operating lifetime.

CONCLUSION


The development of this application system is to examine the concept previously designed. It is only a part of the whole system. The knowledge review system based on connectivism on cloud computing will be further developed accordingly for a more efficient use of learners.
