Summary: | Nowadays, with the effect of the new technology, people who have interested in learning are able to find the material resources easily on the Internet. Although of the new technology that provides attractive, effective, efficient and interesting learning opportunities, there still have problem when designing the website. The major problem is the most of the websites of learning courses are poorly design and it is hard to user to find what they really want from the website. These poorly designed products mostly suffer from a lack of awareness and focus on users. This research focuses on three objectives, there are to identify interface design elements in online learning, to evaluate students' emotions toward interface design in online learning and to identify relationship of students' emotional responses and interface design elements in online learning. This research discusses the findings of the study of emotional in website by employing the Kansei Engineering technique. The primary focus of this research was to identify interface design elements in online learning. Through this study, there are three phases of experiment. The most critical phase is Experiment 2 where 40 Kansei words as description of emotional value organized in a 5 point Semantic Differential scale, rated by 30 participants. Partial Least Square (PLS) Analysis was used to link the Kansei responses with website design elements. In addition, to identify the influence of design elements and Kansei, PLS Range for every Kansei was calculated. The results from this calculation showed the design influence for bad design and good design. The results and findings from this research will give benefits to students who take a distance learning courses and for those who are have interested in designing online learning courses especially for the academia and developer of website for education purposes. |
