Abstract. ‘Interview Ready’ is an interactive teaching tool which is developed specifically for teaching
Communicative English 3 (DUE5012). This course is offered to the students in semester 4 or Semester
5 at Politeknik Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah. The students are taught on how to search for a job
advertisement, write cover letter, resume, and the skills on how to attend the interview session. This
teaching tool is developed by using iSpring that can change the PowerPoint file into Flash. ‘Interview
Ready’ that is produced has been uploaded by the lecturers teaching DUE5012 into CIDOS LMS 2.5
platform to be accessed by the students. The Need Analysis for this innovation project is done by using
a qualitative method among 5 lecturers and 5 students. Apart from that, quantitative method is also used
in collecting data among 30 respondents. As a result, the findings from the questionnaires showed that
this innovation project is able to help the students in their learning process because this application can
also be used inside and outside of the classroom at anywhere and anytime. As the conclusion, students
can revise the topic for Job Hunting chapter easily while they can also take part in simple and interactive
quizzes provided in the application to enhance their understanding on the topic.

Abstract. The implementation of 21 Century Learning in all school subjects has indirectly helped
st
students in the aspects of communication, collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, skills and values in
their learning. However, the understanding of Mathematical concept and skills are questionable due to
the fact that the use of text book limits students understanding. Thus, to ensure effective and better
understanding of teaching and learning using Mathematics text book, multimedia application approach
is used. EzMath@IPGKS3.0 has integrated several multimedia software and applications to help
teachers, students and parents in the teaching and learning of Mathematics Year 2. This intervention
case study explores the innovation in the form of EzMath@IPGKS3.0 developed by Institute of Teacher
Education Sarawak campus team. The instruments used in this study are interviews, observations,
questionnaires, and EzMath@IPGKS3.0 in the classroom. The objective of this study is to explore the
ability of EzMath@IPGKS3.0 in supporting teaching and learning of Mathematics in Year 2 Primary
schools. Results of this study found that teachers using EzMath@IPGKS3.0 were able to help their
pupils in Mathematics skills such as calculation, understanding and mastering Mathematical concepts.
In addition, teachers were able to use EzMath@IPGKS3.0 as a platform of teaching Mathematics in the
classroom. Thus, the usage of EzMath@IPGKS3.0 has changed the traditional classroom style to a
more realistic learning style. EzMath@IPGKS3.0 supports the changes of learning because it could be
used anytime and anywhere. This innovation transforms teaching and learning concept and further
supports parents in helping their children. Now, WE can be Superhero.
