Due to its ability to provide a systematic guidance in designing and developing an instructional or training course, it has been adopted in the field of education. With Malaysia"s Vision 2020 of transformation from Industrial age to the Information Age, educational sectors are preparing students to become knowledge and skilled workers to fulfill the needs of the industries in Information Technology and Multimedia field. To ensure that these workers are well equipped with the proper attitude, skills and knowledge, the National Vocational Training Council (NVTC) has applied the ID process to determine the requirements of this field. An ID model known as the National Occupational Skills Standard (NOSS) has been applied in a development approach called DACUM (Developing A Curriculum) to determine the tasks required for a skilled worker. This paper reflects on the importance of ID as a guide in identifying and developing Instructional Analysis for industries by taking an example from the NOSS development.

Needless to say, it is pertinent for them to have some basic programming skills. We realized the needs to motivate the potential programmers therefore, proposed the integration of folktales in learning programming. This paper shares an approach of teaching programming using the folktales to create awareness also to simulate the amateur and non-programmers interested with folktales at the same time motivated to complete a creation of digital story using 3D programming software, Alice and Unity. Mixed-methods approach revealed participants’ positive behavior towards learning programming although it was perceived difficult. The finding also indicates that they can understand the programming language and successfully explored the software to create a digital story.

An empirical study was carried out to investigate some of these variables in relation to the students' perceived ability to achieve the learning outcomes at the end of Web-based lessons. The results show that students' background, prior-knowledge and interest do not promise the achievement of learning outcomes.

The Web-based course revolves around student-centered learning. In order to support student-centered learning, learners require accessibility to learning resources and support services to assist them in undertaking their studies and to gain maximum benefit from their experiences as a learner. This paper briefly discusses the implementation of a Web-based course, the objectives, strategy of teaching and learning, development, implementation and student evaluation in a multimedia course. Findings from the implementation of the course indicate seven practical guidelines that should be taken into serious account if any faculty is interested to promote Web-based learning.
