Abstract
Background and Objectives: Certainly we all know that due to the diversity and multiplicity of different media around our children, today their taste for learning has changed and there is no choice but to use technology in education and use tools and methods of teaching based on multimedia.
Today, in addition to textbooks, multimedia, digital teaching and learning environments have also come to the educational support of learners. While we all know that the use of computers and multimedia alone does not have an educational effect, but combines it with a good educational and self-learning thinking that is applicable.
Meanwhile, in disciplines such as computer, where teaching is software-based and the teacher is required to teach a software, at the same time provide his training directly on the relevant software, lessons and multimedia There are some that have been prepared and produced that teachers use for teaching and students for learning, along with specialized textbooks in the field, as a source of teaching aid, but the most important point in designing these tools and multimedia is not to use them. It is a suitable educational approach along with efficient educational design.
One of the appropriate educational models and approaches for this purpose is the model of constructivism. This model is based on an issue, question or project as the focus and support and mental systems. The student's goal is to interpret the problem or solve the problem or complete the project. In order to reflect on action, students must imitate the performance that has been modeled for them, and teachers must re-demonstrate student performance so that students engage in action-reflecting. Modeling strategies focus on how experts work. In addition, for project-based training, there are three practice-based, position-based, and project-based models. In this study, after designing a multimedia software with a project-oriented constructivist (PBL) approach. , Which generally uses two models of practice-based and project-based learning, finally, the extent of the impact of multimedia with a project-based approach on learning memory learning of tenth grade students in the field of computer science in Birjand city has been investigated
Mathods: The study design is quasi-experimental. The statistical population of this study consists of all second grade boy students of technical and vocational schools in Birjand. The sample was divided into experimental and control groups, which 25 participants in each. The experimental and control groups were trained with multimedia and traditional methods, respectively. Students' academic achievement was measured by teacher-made tests (pretests and the posttests) and their reliabilities were estimated using Cronbach's alpha estimated to be %77. Data were analyzed through inferential statistics (Analysis of variance with repeated measures and Covariance).
Findings: The results indicated that the impact of project-based multimedia training on students' learning-retention had more positive effect (68.5% in comparison to the traditional method.
Conclusion: The present study shows that computer-based Constructivism with project-based approach affects both low level of learning (knowledge, understanding and use) and high level of learning ( analysis, evaluation, and creation) and retention among students in vocational and technical schools.
