Abstract

The purpose of this study is to raise awareness for marine conservation to the public through a mobile-based microlearning application. Microlearning is used as an approach in this study to produce a non-conventional type of learning resource on marine conservation. Up to 80% of marine pollution is from land-based activities which include oil spills, fertilizers, garbage, sewage disposal and many others that eventually flows into the ocean. Marine pollution is one of the global issues thus marine conservation education for young adults is important. Marine conservation has been conventionally delivered via online courses exhibitions, workshops and events to the general public. This study uses the Kemp Design Model as the instructional design model to guide the design, development and evaluation of the application. Cooperative evaluation has been employed in the formative evaluation process to ensure usability problems are correctly identified and to conduct reviews to test effectiveness of prototype thus a semi-interview after the usability testing process where user completed the given task. As a result, this mobile application is designed in hopes to raise awareness for marine conservation via a different learning approach was successfully developed including the evaluation of prototype.
