Abstract

Embedding technology in teaching and learning (T&L) becomes necessary, especially during open distance learning (ODL). Mobius is a math-based online platform that provides interactive T&L applications to meet the ODL requirements. This platform is built on Maple software with intelligent grading and response, where students can attempt several random questions within the same subtopic and get an immediate response. However, students' response to this platform is the primary concern. Thus, this study analyzed the students' feedback on using Mobius for Calculus I. The content designs, implementation, and students' experience using this platform are discussed. The respondents in this study were 20 non-mathematical students in the second semester of Bachelor of Information Technology, Faculty of Computer and Mathematical Sciences, UiTM Shah Alam. Students were given access to Mobius and required to complete all the exercises on selected topics in Calculus I - techniques of differentiation, chain rule, techniques of integration and application of integration. Finally, their feedback is recorded and analyzed. The result shows that most students showed positive feedback on using Mobius to improve their Calculus I understanding and recommended using Mobius in T&L sessions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
