Abstract

This electronic book (e-book) involves the horizontal
coordinate system explanation and the basis of the sky object
observation. It was developed for undergraduate students who must
learn astronomy. The performance content accuracy of the book and
the appropriateness of the question were checked by the experts for
investigating the Item-Objective Congruence Index (IOC). It was
tried out with the undergraduate students in Chiang Mai Rajabhat
University and Yala Rajabhat University. The result shows that the
average satisfaction of students who performed this e-book is a very
satisfactory level. Therefore, the e-book for the basics of observing
sky objects can be used as a teaching and learning media to develop
effective teaching and learning which encourages learners to
participate in teaching and learning via social media.
