Abstract

Due to the pandemic of Covid-19, all universities and institutions in Malaysia are closed during the pandemic to avoid the spread of Covid-19. The face-to-face learning and teaching session are replaced by online learning and teaching session. Online learning was being implemented to deliver a seamless teaching and learning process so that the academic session can continue with the new norm through MCO and social distancing.  There are barriers to conducting the practical class or hands-on practice for aquaponic topics due to the teaching and learning online classes. Therefore, this condition may affect the knowledge and understanding or performance of the student on aquaponic topics that require hands-on teaching and learning. Moreover, students at home who do not have the necessary equipment and tools for the practical session are among the challenges of doing practical sessions. Some materials, such as Rockwool and net pot, must be purchased as a set, but students may only require a portion of them, making the purchase burdensome to complete on their own aquaponic. To overcome the problem, the teaching aids "Aquaponic Mini Models was developed. The purpose of this study was to identify the expert perspective on the development and usability of teaching aids "Aquaponic Mini Models" for aquaculture course. The teaching aids “Aquaponic Mini Models” was created using the ADDIE model through five phases: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The research method used in this study is a quantitative method (questionnaire survey). In this study, a set of questionnaires was used to elicit data from the experts. Nine experts from the Faculty Technical and Vocational were chosen for their experience developing learning aid kits and teaching pedagogy. All data obtained were analyzed using computer software Statistical Package for Social Science SPSS version 24' to obtain the frequency, percentage, and mean through descriptive analysis. The result showed that the expert perception on the essential elements of teaching aid, necessary features for teaching aid, the development of the Aquaponic Mini Model Learning Aid Kit (Design and Layout) and the usability of the Aquaponic Mini Model Learning Aid Kit has the overall mean perception of 2.00, implying perceptions were good. Therefore, Overall, the result showed that the Aquaponic Mini Models Learning Aid Kit could be developed and used as a learning aid kit for aquaculture courses to increase student understanding and skills in teaching and learning. Moreover, using the Aquaponic Mini Model Learning Aid Kit, students will develop and build the learning kit independently and the results will be more precise and more understandable. For a teacher, the use of teaching aid can save time in determining efficient teaching and learning processes.
