The Impact of Psychomotor Element in Cognitive Domain Achievement of Electronics 1 during Open Distance Learning (ODL)

Abstract

Psychomotor domain is an essential skill required in any diploma engineering programme where it is empowering students' practical engineering skills ability as a complementary element to the theories that were learned during lectures. Moreover, this learning experience engages the students with the engineering experimental laboratory work. This paper studied the impact of the psychomotor elements in enhancing the cognitive performance of secondyear diploma students in a fundamental course, Electronics

Challenges in Cognitive Domain Performance for Laboratory-Embedded Electrical Engineering Courses

“…There is a positive correlation between student performance in cognitive assessments and their performances in psychomotor assignments as reported by Noor et al (2020) and Zanal et al (2023). There is an obvious connection between students' comprehension of the theory and their proficiency in practical skills as their understanding improved, so did their practical skills (Noor et al 2020).…”

The Aspects Of Critical Thinking Toward Students' Psychomotor Skill In Learning Of Microprocessor And Microcontroller Programming Techniques

“…The authors (Ali Begam et al, 2018) (Zanal et al, 2023) view the elements of psychomotor learning outcomes as including (1) skill in using tools; (2) the ability to plan, implement, and analyze until the work is completed; (3) the ability to read technical drawings and symbols; (4) the ability to make decisions using the theory obtained; (5) the time required to complete the work; and (6) the quality of the tasks completed. The authors (Mayuze et al, 2023) (Salim et al, 2012) (Seth et al, 2016) argue that the assessment of psychomotor skills can be carried out based on the following (1) planning the steps of the work process in sequence; (2) able to choose the appropriate materials; (3) determine the amount of material needed; (4) able to choose the appropriate tools; (5) following the correct procedures for each implementation;…”
