Abstract

This study examined the patterns of the students’ usage of Audio Playback Rate Control (APRC) tool integrated into the instructional multimedia on simple machines subject for the eight-grade science course. This study also explored the opinions of the students toward the APRC attribute. The APRC tool used in this study allows audio to be listened in less time or more time than it was originally recorded, with no loss of voice quality or intelligibility. The study used data from 24 students of an eight-grade class of Private Elementary School. The audio materials used in the software were produced in five different rates by time-compressing or time-expanding the original audio files. The “normal” rate was used 50% of the time, “fastest” rate (time-expanding original file by 30%) was used 26% of the time, and the “slowest” rate (time-compressing original file by 30%) was used 15% of the time. In addition, interview results indicated that students used and liked the APRC tool.
