摘要: Blended learning is an emerging trend across many educational settings, adopting the purposeful integration of traditional face-to-face and online teaching to establishing engaging experience for students. provides ideal platform implementation reusable objects (RLOs) as a pedagogical tool support classroom instruction.,This study had conducted quasi-experiment followed by semi-structured interviews determine if blended approach using RLOs can enhance students’ in undergraduate engineering computer-aided design (CAD) module. This involved learners studying two different academic years.,Students from first year were taught approach. The cohort students subsequent adopted approach: face access series RLOs. analysis revealed statistical evidence that use significant impact on students' end term exam grades CAD module comparison who undertook qualitative findings highlighted positive behaviour, engagement knowledge retention.,This provided empirical benefits domain. From theoretical perspective, importance good instructional sound underpinning strategy. practical point view, this informed academics how improve learner's achievement
