A ‘WOMAN’S TOUCH’ IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ELECTRONIC-PORTFOLIOS FOR ENGINEERING MATHEMATICS
Team-based electronic-portfolio is made as an integral part of assessing engineering undergraduates in the learning of Ordinary Differential Equations at a private university in Malaysia. Guided by online instructions and basic template via MOODLE, participants work in teams of four or five to devel...
