The research method was carried out by quasi-experimental design. The subjects were sixth graders from two different classes which were controlled by nonequivalent control group designs. They received the programs with the same period long and the same learning material but with different teaching methods in order to figure out the difference between their learning effectiveness and motivation. In order to collect and analyze the data from the experiment, qualitative and quantitative instruments were used in this study. The major findings are as follows: 1.The subjects of the experimental group received webcam synchronization instruction. The statistical method was used to analyze the data collected from the pretest and the posttest. Experimental group’s pretest was better than the posttest in learning performance of the gender equality education. 2.The statistical method was used to analyze the data collected from the pretest and the posttest. After comparing the students from the experimental group and the control group, the researcher found that the gender attitude scale performance from the experimental group was better than the one from the control group. 3.The researcher used the qualitative instrument to analyze students’ performances and changes in webcam synchronization. It was found that webcam synchronization enhanced students’ abilities of expressing and interacting. Also, it stimulated students to discuss daily issues and share their opinions. According to the finding in this study, webcam synchronization was a good material to improve personalized learning.
