| Summary: | Analysing youth learners' perception of the usage of wearable technology in technical
education is reflected as the starting point towards a more effective and engaging learning
environment. Previous research highlighted that one of the requirements for designing an
engaging technical Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) is to include a practice-oriented
learning mode into its course structure. Therefore, this study aims to identify the learners'
perception of the use of wearable technology in supporting the teaching and learning process
specifically for technical course. This study adopted the case study methodology approach
with quantitative analysis. The instruments used in this study include technical MOOC and
wearable technology. A total of 375 engineering youth learners involved in this study and the
data were analysed using descriptive and parametric testing. The survey results reflected that
the learning materials produced by wearable technology do contribute towards positive
perception in increasing the level of student's engagement with the learning process. Among
key recommendations for future study are to implement the use of wearable technology for
designing and developing other subjects as well |
