A Toolkit Design Framework for Authoring Multimedia Game-Oriented Educational Content

The learning content such as educational games has the power of engaging students as it allows them to explore and try out things that they have learned in a save and friendly environment. However, this kind of interactive content is difficult to build. Even though there are some authoring tools available, their development environments are still complicated for someone without any basic computing background. A much simpler to use toolkit is therefore urgently needed. We aim to address this need by designing an authoring tool that can operate as simple as Microsoft Power Point, in order to help teachers to produce and personalize their own game-oriented educational content. In this paper, we propose a framework in designing such toolkit. Based on this framework, a toolkit will be developed to enable teachers in Malaysia to author educational game content for teaching basic Jawi words for young.
