Designing Prototype User Interface Digital Library for Elementary School Based on Probability Bayesian

Abstract

Recently of digital library technology is not only developed on the aspect of the system, but also in the interface design, because it has a significant role to reach the level of usefulness and success as source of knowledge. Digital library’s interface should be developed and can adapt to the needs of children, who have different of ability and expectation when interact the user interface design than adult. This research aims to design the interface prototype digital library for elementary school students, based on the analysis of chosen existing library. Tests performed limited on the interface “simple search” form on the ICDL, with field observation approach methods, and the 6 task were completed over 15 minutes. Layout space used a single room setup when doing the observation. Data were taken from 12 elementary school students (7-12 years old), who come from three different schools. Processed analysed by Bayesian probability methods. From the results obtained, it can be concluded that the certainty of children had a difficulty when accessed forms simple search ICDL at the first used. From the analysis of the design 1 login register on the form ICDL display showed the probability of students choosing Register / Login influenced by his perspective and the time given is 0.5.Recently of digital library technology is not only developed on the aspect of the system, but also in the interface design, because it has a significant role to reach the level of usefulness and success as source of knowledge.
