Hybrid and Collaborative Networks Approach: Online Learning Integrated Project and Kolb Learning Style in Mechanical Engineering Courses

Abstract

Engineering education is very important to prepare quality graduates. An alternative hybrid and collaborative networks approach in learning is the current choice. This study aims to explain the online learning integrated project and Kolb learning style in mechanical engineering courses to enhance students' academic achievement which is implemented through a hybrid and collaborative networks approach. The research method used is a quantitative approach with the posttest control group design method. We carry out learning activities using Project and Kolb Learning on higher education students from Mechanical Engineering Education who take part in learning this project. Students who participate are limited to small groups, which are divided according to their learning styles groups, and the implementation is carried out in a hybrid and collaborative through e-learning and face-to-face. Collecting data using Kolb Learning Styles Inventory, and achievement test. While the data analysis used descriptive analysis and one-way Anova with the help of SPSS software. The results of this study indicate that there is a difference in the average academic achievement of students based on the four learning style groups, and the thinker learning style group has the highest average academic achievement among the four. The selection of appropriate learning styles and learning models has an impact on optimal and effective academic achievement.

Enhancing basic computer network learning outcomes of vocational high school students by implementing a video-based learning model

“…Variable X is the treatment given to the experimental class, where the treatment given is to apply video-based learning to the basic computer and network learning processes. Variable O2 is the final score obtained from the experimental class after the test; this score was taken after the treatment in the basic computer and network learning process (Jalinus et al, 2022). This method is suitable for research where the sample is limited to one class only.…”

Problem Solving Skills in Child Friendly Learning Through the Discovery Learning based on Applet Geogebra in Terms of Learning Style

“…This is in line with Eko Setiyono Riau et al, (2016) which states that in working on the problems o l v i n g ability test with a diverging learning style cannot show the steps of completion at the rechecking stage. In addition, subjects with diverging learning styles get bored more quickly if they do not understand the problem and are creative (Jalinus et al, 2020).…”

Analysis of Computational Thinking Skill Through Technology Acceptance Model Approach Using Augmented Reality in Electronics Engineering Education

“…This misuse leads to disruptions in study time and negatively affects comprehension of the learning materials. Since the integration of technology becomes crucial for improving student engagement in the learning process [8], [9] teachers are expected to make effort in achieving this goal [10], [11]. Typically, every teacher is expected to have the skill to create media that stimulates student engagement while maintaining consistency with the needs and relevance of the learning materials.…”
