Abstract

E-learning pedagogy is one of the most recent methods used by instructors at the undergraduate level at the colleges worldwide. Students benefit from e-learning instruction by having a better grasp of information. In the present work, e-learning was used in a postgraduate course in the College of Engineering at UAE University to motivate students in educational materials required for Chemical Engineering Department. The initiative started after a successful experience in an undergraduate course. Therefore, the present research was done as an attempt to replicate the study and test it for postgraduate courses. All students were asked to submit assignments in the shape of e-learning to produce educational materials on different course topics. The collected and analyzed feedbacks showed that students have interesting ideas and approaches to reach the desired target. This experience revealed positive response as well as the potential to many promising aspects that can be used in the future to develop similar assignments for the enhancement of student's knowledge.
