Abstract
The purpose of this research is to design a digital-based e-book “Plant World View”, it combines the diversity of multimedia and natural science, which meets different personal needs in learning method. The research sample are fifth grade students from an elementary school in Tainan, they usually divide students into two classes, 20 students with normal teaching style, and 20 students used tablets as learning tool in class. The way they divide students into two different classes made it easy to study and analyze the interaction satisfaction and the system’s usability. As a result, as for system’s usability, students with the multimedia tablet teaching method picked up faster than the students of normal teaching method. For the user interaction satisfaction, the student with tablet’s subjective feeling is better than the students of normal teaching method.
