Abstract
This research aims to 1) develop an interactive electronic book model, 2) study the effects of using the interactive electronic book model, and 3) present the interactive electronic book model. The experimental sample for developing the interactive electronic book model included three technology experts and three ornamental plant experts, selected through the purposive sampling method. The user group for testing the model comprised 51 students of the principles the ornamental plants. Research tools included the interactive electronic book, pre- and post-learning tests, and a model evaluation form. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, mean, standard deviation, and the t-test. The study found that the developed interactive electronic book model consists of five components: 1) multidimensional linkage, 2) structural design of the book, 3) multimedia, 4) content, and 5) online classroom. The experiment showed a statistically significant increase in students' average understanding scores on planting pink rain lilies after learning, with a high overall satisfaction level towards the interactive electronic book model, achieving an average satisfaction score of (x̅ = 4.58, SD = 0.52), with the highest averages in the general characteristics of the book (x̅ = 4.72, SD = 0.44), illustrations, symbols, colors (x̅ = 4.58, SD = 0.51), and multimedia (x̅ = 4.56, SD = 0.62)
