the combination of blended learning technique and computer technology, this can be called “innovative
learning” iLearning. [5]
2. The objectives of this study
2.1 To improve teaching strategies by using innovative technology and innovative teaching
techniques and substitute previous teaching strategy system.
2.2 To develop an innovative learning by integrating with new learning system.
2.3 To increase the efficiency of smart students and smart teachers by using innovative learning.
3. Innovative Learning iLearning
It is a new teaching system that brings innovations and technologies to develop a teaching
system to increase the efficiency of students’ learning and quality. This can be divided into two groups.
3.1 ICT based:
It is a learning format that use new innovations and technologies to be part of teaching and learning
activities. For example, ICT based can increase the performance of instructors to become smart teachers
by using many computer technology tools, such as Social Media, Blog, Google App, Youtube, Open
Courseware, TED, Simulation Games, eBook, iTunes U, and so on.
3.2 Non-ICT based:
It is a learning format that do not use any computer technology but use other new teaching
strategies, such as learning by rally, Problem Solving, Discovery Learning, Concept Mapping, Juggling, and
so on.
4. Innovative Learning Development
Innovative Learning Development by ADDIE Model as follows:
Figure 1. ADDIE Model Wikepedia, 8 April 2014.
4.1 Analyze: To study the requirement of innovative learning
4.1.1 Reform: by canceling the previous system
eClassroom and use iLearning system instead. From preliminary study, we found that there are some
limitations in teaching strategy with e-Learning of online learning management system LMS in Hatyai
University. There were no interaction between teachers and students, no connection of databases
between each classes in registration system, and no links among users in authentication server. Therefore,
an idea was proposed to improve online learning management system by using blended learning
technique with software called “Moodle”. This will improve teaching and learning efficiency and be able
to connect the users to social media, such as Facebook [7].
Figure 2. The problem of traditional electronics learning.
This technique allows teachers to increase more channels to instantly communicate with students.
According to that survey, there were three factors that affect the previous system:
First, the information from e-learning system eClassroom based was taken from 300 samples
divided into 200 students and 100 teachers. We found that the reason that they mostly use eClassroom
system is to download and upload course materials for 218 persons or 72.70. However, we found that 121
persons or 40.30 have problems with download and upload. Moreover, most people agree that if there is
any change in eClassroom system, it will not affect much. Nevertheless, 1.7 recommended that the
university should improve the performance of the system. In summary, 40.30 have problems with
download and upload course materials, and 21.30 have problems with the system down or not working.
20.30 agree that the system is too slow and 18 admitted that the sizes and types of the files are
limited.
Second is the requirement information to develop an iLearning system. From the result, First
topic is function of the system that has an average value 3.98.
Firstly, they want the system to support video files, multimedia eBook files, picture files, and
many document formats 4.27. Secondly, some users want to check their scores and grades from
assignments and examinations 4.26. Second topic is security of the system. What users want the most is to
limit the access and use 3.95. Third topic is structure and format of the system 3.64. Users require
beautiful proportion of screen size 3.71. Fourth topic is the ability and performance of the system
3.58. Users need more speed and response 3.86.

Third is other information relating to the development of the iLearning system.
From study, we found that most subjects use their PC personal computer to access to the system
for 47, and most of these prefer social media, such as Facebook for 51. And the media that 33 love to
use the most is video.
