The existing gap of mathematics knowledge was identified as the major contributor to the decline in the students’ performance on the Integral Calculus at the university level. This phenomenon has led to university students’ difficulties in identifying the correct integration techniques and developing understanding on applications of the Integral Calculus. This study aims to analyse the effectiveness of e-INTEGRAL MAP in the learning of Integral Calculus among engineering students of advanced Calculus class. A total of 118 diploma engineering students were involved in an experimental design research to study on the usage and effectiveness of e-INTEGRAL MAP. Study was performed on 65 students in control group and 53 students in treatment group, using the pre-test and post-test experimental design methodology where the effectiveness of the maps was measured through their performance scores. Findings indicate that both control and treatment groups showed significant differences in post-test scores during the two months study. The majority of e-INTEGRAL MAP users found the maps very useful, helpful, easy to understand and user-friendly because it was systematically designed. In conclusion, e-INTEGRAL MAP significantly improved the students’ performance and understanding on the topic of Integral Calculus as compared to the conventional text-book learning.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
