Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Developments in cloud technology has made it possible for users to use the Internet and smart handheld devices for performing various tasks. Many types of E-books and APP have been made as a result. However, few investigations have been carried out to determine whether E-books and APP are useful for college-level engineering courses in the classroom settings. Hence, this study has selected a mechanical drawing course where E-books and APP could be used in theoretical and practical teaching to perform an empirical investigation. E-books were used to study the principles of mechanical drawing, while the APP was used for creating mechanical drawings and learning the processes involved in actual mechanical drawing processes. The investigation then analyzed the relationship between learning styles and the usability of the E-books and the APP. |
