Paper Abstract:
|
This paper presents an improved software estimation model, which uses to estimate developing effort of e-Learning's
contents. This model is called the e-Learning courseware Effort Estimate Model (EEEM). This model uses special
designed storyboard to delineate the e-Learning courseware's contents and define the measurement metrics. Research
was conducted using statistical data from the real world e-Learning courseware development. Detail implementation data
of 60 courseware were collected and analyzed. The Web Model was adapted to assess the webpage development. The
number of web page, test-page, graphics and multimedia elements in each courseware are analyzed. The EEEM model is
designed to estimate the e-Learning courseware development time and effort. The proposed model is more accurate than
the previous models. The previous Web Model has Mean Absolute Percentage Error: MAPE =83.28 % and the new
EEEM Model :MAPE=16.86%. The output of this model is the courseware development effort (in person-hour). The new
model can help developers to save money and time that cause from estimation. |
