Abstract

This paper gives the report of the experimental set-up to evaluate the effectiveness of Hybrid blended learning system (HBLS) in teaching mathematics among engineering students in Nigeria. A total of 1197 students was sampled. We first conducted and investigative research with questionnaire to assess the student's readiness to use of social medias networks. We discovered that 93% (1113) of the sampled population has internet enable mobile phone and they make use of facebook or WhatsApp account at least 5hrs in a week. We use both face-to-face method in the physical classroom while virtual classroom was created in facebook and WhatsApp where course content is delivered before physical class, also for after physical classroom interactions among the students and lecturers. Another questionnaire was given to the sample population to assess their learning experiences after which the exams was given to evaluate the students' performance. Exam result was compared with previous result where teaching was done through face to face method. It was discovered that about 89% (1065) of sample population had 50 and above in the collated result which is sharply defer when compared with the previous semester where only face-to-face method was adopted.

Abstract

Quality assurance in education system is paramount to the global sustainable development, therefore conventional surveillance systems that use cameras and process large amounts of data to extract features from a classroom environment may be essential. This work presents the design and implementation of automated classroom monitoring and security system with CCTV cameras and PIR sensors to monitor student's behavior and observe teacher performance during classroom activities. An active central control system and PIR sensors was designed. CCTV cameral, DVD system, and PIR sensors were networked to implementing the e-monitoring system. The control system supply power to both cameras and PIR sensor. The PIR sensors senses the movement within the monitoring area, and then activate the cameras, then the DVD system start recording the activities for online or offline view by human agent.
