Abstract:

This study sought to develop an interactive pathfinder for the College of Information Technology of Liceo de Cagayan University to locate library resources for their students. The development of the courseware was primarily aimed at speeding online feedbacking and access to website. It used the water model in developing the courseware. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) was used to document the system flow, while the Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) tag and Active Server Pages (ASP) was also used to code the machine instruction. The completed courseware enables the students to download easily the subject resources, promotes independent thinking among them, and allows the librarian/administrator to monitor the resources used by the students. Hence, this courseware is recommended for utilization to enhance instruction through online-facilitated research.
