Abstract


Mathematics is a beautiful subject with logic applications. However, mathematics is not properly studied by a group of students. The objective of this paper is to share pedagogy experience teaching and learning mathematics using e-learning approach among BIT1 Degree students in Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM). The study was done from January to May 2012. Experimental method was used where pre-post tests onto two groups (control n1=20 and exsperimental n2=30) and this is followed by unstructured interview. Sample of 50 students were taken where ANCOVA was applied where pre-test marks was used as covariate. However, there was statistically significant difference between mean marks at post test group experimental from different groups (α= 0.044). The findings showed all participants from both groups failed to show drastic mastery solving pre-algebra problems eventhough they realized mathematics at the university needs higher skills.
