Abstract

This study aims to design Multimedia Computer Assisted Instruction(MCAI)coupled with ARCS (Attention, Relevance, Confidence and Satisfaction) model of learning motivation and to investigate the effects of teaching mathematics using MCAI coupled with ARCS model for elementary school students with disabilities. The participants are recruited from the resource room and general classes. The multiple-probe across behavior design is utilized in the study. The independent variable is the strategies of MCAI coupled with ARCS model, and the dependent variables are the performances of learning mathematics. The results indicated that the MCAI program coupled with ARCS model of learning motivation promotes participants’ mathematics performance.
