Leveraging technology is an integral component of any 21st century learning. Researchers and practitioners are still working on ways to improve the impact on student learning with the help of technology as learning tools. Therefore, this study was carried out to study the effects of integrating technology-mediated learning in biology education using systematic literature review (SLR). Finding from the analysis of selected literatures found that the integration of technology-mediated learning has a significant positive impact on students’ academic achievement and learning experience. Further research can be carried out by investigating the impact of technology-mediated collaborative learning on learning experience and academic achievement in histology. Several advantages and features of technology-mediated learning are identified through the classification of aspect in terms of learning methods, learning approaches and delivery methods...

HistoGuide application is a smartphone application system used by sixth form students as virtual microscopy and slides to solve the problems of incorrect drawing and labelling, inability to apply magnification and scale, and inability to observe details in microscopic practical works. However, as a newly developed application, there are still many who do not understand the usability of the HistoGuide application. In building a good application, one important part is good usability. Usability testing, especially in the HistoGuide application, can show users' ease and efficiency in using the system. The authors try to use qualitative usability testing through observation, document analysis and interviews with four participants as a pilot study before a real study. The analysis revealed the preference of the students for utilizing virtual microscopy as an educational tool in terms of usability, in the construct of usefulness, ease of use, ease of learning, satisfaction, effectiveness and .....
