ICEED 2013 telah selesai

Alhamdulillah, selesai dah seminar ICEED 2013. Banyak yang telah ku pelajari sepanjang 2 hari di sini. Tentang kajian, proses akreditasi, OBE, HCI, User Interface, Creative Learning Model, dan… banyaklah.

Sambil2 dengar, sambil memikirkan kesesuaian dengan diri… apa kajian lanjutan yang mungkin boleh dilaksanakan tahun depan. kuperhatikan juga tingkahlaku sesetengah Pembentang yang sangat defensive terhadap kajian yang dijalankan…

Teman buat tahan mengantuk… Cappucino

Majlis penutup yang ringkas.

Takda dinner, jamuan keraian, lawatan… betul2 fokus pada perkongsian ilmu.

Letih tapi berbaloi.

Selepas 2 kali terlibat dengan Seminar Antarabangsa Anjuran CTL dan CEE, rasa sangat berterima kasih pada jawatankuasa kerja yang bertugas sepanjang seminar ICEED 2013 dijalankan. Mudah2 an, kertas kerja yang dihantar ke seminar ini akan diterima oleh SCOPUS untuk diindekskan… Aminnnn.

LCCT Airport…. Selamat tinggal Subang Jaya…

Lepas ni, kena menyediakan diri untuk seminar antarabangsa LATICE & RCEERHed 2014 yang kami anjurkan, kerjasama Fakulti Pendidikan, SPS dan CTL di Sarawak pula.

paper presented in ICEED 2013

As i inform earlier in my previous post that I attend ICEED 2013 conference to present my paper. For your information, all paper presented in this conference will be indexed in IEE Explore which is included in SCOPUS and ISI.

My paper presented during this conference is “The framework for Learning using Video on Cognitive Load Theory among Visual Learners” written by Me and my students, Noor ‘Izzati Hamizan and Radhiah Ab Rahim.

Abstract for my paper is as follows:

Using video for learning is no longer extraordinary in the world of education. Many researchers have shown that visual learners enjoy the use of video. However, which video will best grab their attention? This research was conducted to investigate the best framework for learning using video among visual learners. In order to do so, three different videos embedded with Cognitive Load Theory were selected by researchers. Then, 23 students from varied faculties at University Technology Malaysia (UTM) were selected to answer the Visual, Audio and Kinaesthetic (VAK) Learning Style Test. Nine visual learners were then identified among these respondents and invited to answer the questionnaire on perception of learning using video based on cognitive load theory. Data were analyzed using qualitative measures and content analysis. The findings show that visual learners love videos with less than six minutesโ€™ duration, high definition visual quality, simple delivery language and a slow delivery method. All of the visual learners preferred to use video before entering class, which synchronizes with the flip classroom strategy. Hopefully, this framework can be used by educators to develop their own video-based learning materials.

Some suggestion on how the research can be improved by the fellow collegue during my presentation were as follow:

1. Use another group (kinaestetic or Auditory learners) as the control group to see the differences and similarity using the same assesment tools.
2. Should also look into bacground of the learners such as gender, course, etc that might influence the results.
3. Try to look into the psycology aspect on the Cognitive Load of the learners and their performance.

2013 International Congress on Engineering Education (ICEED 2013)

On 4-5 December 2013, University Teknologi Mara and IEEE Advancing Technology for Humanity had organize the ICEED 2013 Conference at Hotel Grand Dorset, Subang Jaya, Selangor.

This is the 5th year of the conference series and the theme for the past conference has evolved from embracing the challenges in engineering education to acknowledging that engineering education is the way forward.

Some paper presented in this conference

Lecture Notes on A Linear Form of Power Spectral Density Estimation in signal Processing by Prof Qun Wan from China.

Using Air Temperature Data of All the Prefectural Capitals in Japan as Teaching Material for Introductory Data-MIning Classes by Prof Akio Imazawa from Japan.

Introducing Process Competences in a PBL-Based Engineering Course by Dr Jose Soler from Denmark.

Inventiveness of Students in an Intnational Program of Engineering Educatiob – Initial Study by Prof. Eleazar Jimenez Serrano from Mexico.

The conference really give many information regarding education, research and engineering education that currently need to be considered and concern. The most hot topic during the session is EAC and OBE as well as soft skill of the Engineering Education Students. I hope that I can join this conference again next year, InsyaAllah.
