Abstract

The teaching and learning environment have subsequently expanded. For the Independent Landscape Design course offered at UiTM Perak Branch, the online distance learning (ODL) has demonstrated the changes of delivery approach in teaching landscape design process. This design-based syllabus is more acquainted with face to face or physical teaching learning environment. Aligned with the Educational 5.0 @ Universiti Teknologi MARA that embraces values and future progressive thinking, this course has adopted MOOCLAA350 to engage and equip these design students with significant understanding, graphic presentation skills as well as technical aspects related to design developments and constructions. This paper analyses student performance throughout the ODL implementation, adopting MOOC and other relevant online platforms during this Covid-19 pandemic outbreak. An online survey supported with a comparative analysis between semesters was conducted to evaluate the students’ readiness, challenges and performance throughout the semester. Some tools and techniques to ensure the continuity of learning during the current pandemic are described. The findings revealed factors contributing to student performance and the reality behind the success of this new teaching strategy which is practical for landscape architecture programs and may also be relevant to other design-based programs or courses.
