| Summary: | Students who are lack of knowledge and awareness of skills in calculating matrices and vectors will struggle to solve mathematical problems involving vector calculus. To overcome the problem, thus ‘MatVec’ was developed as a one-stop platform consists of a video and a flipbook. These items provide students with simple and quick self-learning strategies available at any time and from any location. MatVec was created using digital technologies, highlighting the instructor's short video that covers a manual approach of determinant, dot product and cross product calculation so that students can polish their knowledge and understanding. MatVec centralizes its information in Google Classroom as the main platform and it has assisted students in improving their grades in their examination results. This can be clearly shown in the passing rate of the MAT455 final exam results for mechanical students at Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Pulau Pinang for two consecutive semesters, the increment from 85.7% in semester March 2021-July 2021 to 96.6% in October 2021-February 2022. The improvement in students' grades suggests that the methodology of incorporating digital technologies as additional learning tools is significant and beneficial. |
