Description
Summary:The school restrictions caused by pandemics have changed the teaching strategy. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of teaching strategies with the aids of a learning management system on student performance. A fourth-year course called Concurrent Engineering course of Faculty of Manufacturing Engineering at the Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka was selected to demonstrate the merits of the strategies. The course was offered once per year which is only semester 2 every session. For this purpose, a set of the questionnaire was distributed to 33 students after the summative assessment. The teaching effectiveness was measured through course contents, knowledge, attitude, students’ satisfaction that adopted from existing literature.
