Development of an Interactive E-Book for Improving Students’ Learning Performance in Law Courses based on a Fill-in-Blank Concept Mapping Approach

Abstract

An interactive e-book not only combine words, images, pictures and videos, but also provides interactive learning facilitates, such as the question & answer function, pop-up information function, conditional operations, jump-to-page operations, and event-triggering function. In this study, a concept mapping-based interactive e-books learning mode was proposed for helping students organize what they have learned from e-books. In order to know the learning effects, a quasi-experimental design was adopted in the study to investigate the learning achievement of the students learning with concept mapping-based interactive e-books learning strategy (experimental group) and those learning with interactive e-books learning strategy (control group) in a junior high school law course.
