Learners

=Learners=

Eighteen (18) Conventional Students and Nine (9) Block Release students.

The students have basic computer skills from an introductory course and from their qualifications and are able to use the lab computers on their own.

Some students (around 75%) have personal laptops and smartphones. Those with personal laptops can connect to the university wireless internet and can access the Learning Management System and digital Library resources.

Students with smartphones use the internet by connecting via their mobile phone lines and purchase data bundles from the network service provider. The charges are not very high especially when students are ‍doing ‍ online discussions on social networks. Costs increase when trying to download large files therefore most students download using the university connection and upload on their phones' memory cards.

Needs
 * Face to Face and Discussion group on Facebook.
 * The learners need more guidance on practical.

The practical gives them more understanding of the aspects they must learn as what is expected in the curriculum. When these students go for industrial attachment in their third year they are involved in software development therefore they need more practical skills even besides in preparation for exams.

Learners learn best from demonstration (step by step) and when they can self pace the content.
