Abstract

This research examines the necessity of creating interactive applications for number system conversion, explicitly focusing on binary, octal, decimal, and hexadecimal systems in Malaysia’s Basic Computer Science curriculum. By utilizing the Nominal Group Technique (NGT) to collect expert opinions, the study identifies significant challenges students face when learning and applying these fundamental concepts through traditional methods. The results unanimously support the need for additional interactive learning materials to enhance understanding and engagement. A high consensus score across all items strongly advocates for the proposed application, emphasizing its potential to address educational deficiencies. The modified NGT technique proved to be an effective alternative to the Delphi method, confirming the practicality and acceptance of the application among the target population. This study concludes that developing an interactive application for number system conversion is crucial for advancing students’ comprehension and aligning with global educational standards, thereby significantly contributing to the quality of computer science education in Malaysia.
