The development of computer Assisted instruction interactive with eyes lesson on knowledge of ASEAN in elementary education for students with disabled hand controls

Abstract

Over the past decade, eye-tracking technology can help people all over the world access computers through systems that use gaze control. For people with disabilities, this technology is a gateway to communication, personal expression and inclusion in society. Eye-tracking technology advance has been transferred to the educational area and now the use of interacting with the multimedia materials and resources in the classroom. The objectives of this research are threefold. The first study presented the development of a low-cost eye-tracking device based on video-oculography. The second study examined various factors in which eye movements can be systematically measured to design appropriate of usability in computer-assisted instruction (CAI). The third study created and determine the efficiency of computer-assisted instruction interactive with eyes lesson on knowledge of ASEAN in elementary education for a student with disabled hand control. This research has looked at three design parameters of the dwell-time click alternative, interactive button size, and placement of the button which suitable for eye tracking interfaces. The evaluation carried out an experiment to compare performance with five students with a disability. Results showed that a combination of big buttons and short dwell-times are most suited for maximizing accuracy and ease of use. Furthermore, the efficiency of computer-assisted instruction is 70.0/71.5 and the user’s satisfaction with CAI were at the high level ( =4.27, S.D. 0.79). Consequently, eye tracking technology is a great tool to interaction in computer-assisted instruction for Thai students with a disability. x
