Description
Summary:Recent years have witnessed how education has rapidly evolved into integration of technology or computer in the process of teaching and learning. As computer potentially enhances the process, this paper reports on the user need analysis on Science subject in Malaysian secondary schools that focus on Personalized Learning Environment (PLE), methods and materials and why PLE is needed. Several surveys were developed to explore the learning needs and goals as well as to construct the vision of PLE organization. It also presents the preliminary findings of a research in progress and the needs of PLE among the students. This study adapted the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation & Evaluation) model to closely monitor and involve with the learning phenomena in such an open online environment in which the researcher became a learner to participate in various activities of the courses, to interact with participants and to explore the process of learning and interaction. In the development and adaption of such environment, it is essentially vital that students’opinion and viewpoints are taken into consideration. The paper also highlights the importance of engaging the users with PLE. Keywords: Methodology; Need Analysis; Nutrition; PLE; Science.
