Abstract

Blended Learning (BL) emerged from the traditional electronic Learning. As normality is easing back after the COVID-19 pandemic, BL is once again widespread in Teaching and Leaning (TL) in Higher Institution of Learning. The objective of this endeavour is to empower learners with meaningful BL experience. In order to achieve this, a meticulously planned Online Instructional Design (OID) was used on Moodle version 3.14, among learners of MDU1023 at Faculty of Medicine & Health Sciences, University Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS). The OID consists of Micro Learning, Personalised Learning and Accessible Assessment. For the component of Accessible Assessment, Self-Directed Assessment (SDA) were made available for learners of MDU1023. Self-directed Assessment (SDA) is an online module where learners complete an interactive work to demonstrate their proficiency in a given subject matter. SDA is a compilation of questions in a database with careful annotation and curation relevant to the learning outcome of the learning units of MDU1023. The access to SDA is via Moodle platform known as electronic Learning Enrichment & Advancement Platform (eLEAP) at UNIMAS. Learners perception of the OID used in MDU1023 and in particular the SDA, were gauged via a google form questionnaire. A healthy response rate was obtained from a potential 107 learners. The learners of MDU1023 reported unanimous that the SDA in BL via eLEAP created a path for them to experience an impactful learning experience. Therefore, this is an evident that a carefully curated SDA in BL can ensure the instructor that the leaners are experiencing impactful and meaningful learning.
