The field of education is faced with various new challenges in meeting with the demands of teaching and
learning for the 21st century. One of the new challenges is the call for the integration of ICT (Information
and communication technologies) in teaching and learning as an alternative mode of instruction delivery.
Multimedia technology for instance, has the potential in transforming traditional classrooms into a world of
unlimited imaginary environment. This paper reports on a research project on development of an
interactive multimedia courseware package for moral values education using traditional Malay oral
narratives called CITRA. CITRA uses CD-ROM and the computer as a means of dissemination. It is a
didactic tool created for the teaching and learning of good moral values in an interactive multimedia
environment. It is made up of four learning modules: Storytelling World module, Enjoyable Reading World
module, Word Enrichment Corner module, and Mind Test Land module. The tool’s most important feature
is its user interaction capability. The principle objective of this project is to create a pedagogical tool that
combines on-screen text, graphics, animation, audio and video in an enticing environment and thus enables
the positive values and images of stories to be projected
