Summary: | This study was to investigate the effectiveness of
teaching skills using online medium for solar site survey, as well
as students perceived on learning site survey using online
medium. A survey study was conducted that involved 30
students who enrolled in a solar PV installation and
maintenance course. An online questionnaire consists of eight
items using five points Likert Scale were adapted from previous
study, gauging students perceived on learning site survey using
online medium (i.e. online lecture, WhatsApp, chat, voice,
picture, short video clips, and learning management
system-LMS). An assignment was used to indicate students’
performance in site survey skills, including a short test to gauge
students’ technical skills knowledge, consisting of a total of 10
Multiple Choices Questions (MCQ), were developed by
referring to the syllabus, under subtopic of solar site survey.
Technical knowledge questions were divided into two types
namely, items for testing concept (i.e. tools), principles (i.e.
relationship of sunlight and shading) and procedures (i.e.
application of knowledge). The result: Student average
achievement in technical knowledge test was 68.3% (M = 6.83,
SD = 1.64); student average achievement mark in a solar site
survey sketch is 62.8%; and students perceived on learning
solar PV site survey was at high level (M = 3.99, SD = 0.69). It is
concluded that solar PV site survey skills are possible to be
implemented from distance through online medium, and it can
be improved through a more video packaged in the form of live
sessions. |
