In Taiwan, because of the change of social structure, the number of transnational marriage
immigrants, mostly females, coming from Southeast Asia has increased dramatically in recent years. This oneyexchanged
mates and cultural circumstances differ will cause them to face the acculturation pressures. The aims
of this study are to construct a story-based interactive for foreign spouses accommodation courses. Considering
the varied cultural background and education divide, we integrated the anchor strategy, modularity concept and
web navigation to construct a vivid, flexible and effective learning environment. An exploratory test was carried
out with 32 foreign spouses. Research data were collected through the questionnaire. The results revealed that
the interactive PowerPoint could effectively attract and maintain the participants attention; they felt that the
course content and activities were related to their personal goals. Also, they were confident to achieve the
expected outcomes of the course and satisfied with the instruction.
