Abstract
This study was conducted to develop an android-based mobile application Mywheel Alignment for the topic of wheel alignment in the Automotive Technology course at the Vocational College. This study involves the approach of constructivism theory and cognitive theory of multimedia learning in the foundation of application construction to help create effective alternative learning features. The Mywheel Alignment application is a learning support resource that features the main multimedia elements such as text, graphics, animation, audio, and video to help improve mastery of the topic of wheel alignment interactively. Thus the design used is product development while the development process follows the ADDIE model which includes aspects of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. This study uses a qualitative design through a semi-structured interview method involving five experts who have experience and expertise to carry out the evaluation and determine the usability of the application. The data obtained from the interview results were analyzed using the content analysis method to construct codes and interview themes. The findings of the study show that all respondents agree on the pedagogy and curriculum of Automotive Technology, the use of language as well as multimedia and techniques used in the MyWheel Alignment application. Data analysis of students was also done by using a questionnaire to obtain feedback from real users involving 25 Automotive Technology Diploma students at the Vocational College. This android-based mobile concept learning application can provide benefits and added value to users in line with the advancement of educational technology to produce more quality Vocational College graduates towards meeting the needs of the industry in line with the vision and mission of the Malaysian Ministry of Education.
