Research in STEM Education

December 26th, 2018

My UQD 2011 students participated in a post program survey (pre-program survey was done sometime in September 2018), conducted by Dr. Shamsul Arrieya bin Ariffin from UPSI. This is an exercise under the FRGS grant entitled, Identifying the contribution of Student generated activities for STEM by bringing your own mobile devices (BYOD) approach for local educational context.

Such a good learning experience for my students and me, especially in the context of STEM program evaluation.
