RESEARCH DESIGN ON VISUAL PERCEPTION OF INTERFACE DESIGN OF E-LEARNING

Various researches have been conducted to improve the quality of e-learning courseware. Other than user experience, user interface design is also one of the most important aspects in system usability. It allows users to interact with a system. In the development of user interface design, users are given the utmost priority. Therefore, every development should consider users throughout the process. Developers need to understand the requirements of the end user. The user interface design of an e-learning courseware helps them to conduct activities such as learning, exercise and evaluation. The wrong selection of visual can lead to misunderstanding among the users in interpreting the intended meaning. Furthermore, it is quite tedious for designers to choose the right sign to represent interaction. This paper discuss about research design that needs to be implemented to investigate how users perceive visual elements in interface design.The research design contains five sectionswhich is setting, sample or participants, measurement instruments, data collection or procedures and data analysis. The sections will be explained through data obtained from the research, underlining the user visual perception aspect. The findings can help improving the quality of e-learning materials for children. The survey shows that students prefer traditional icon than temporary icon. Total of 95% of respondents prefer to use book to represent learn icon. Other than that, this research is also significant to providing the designers and developers with useful guides to enhance their understandings in producing good interface design for e-learning. Excellent qualities of e-learning are essential towards serving the students with the best education. This paper could provide a good reference for researcher to conduct a research that relates to visual communication in information technology
