Acquiring, Analyzing and Interpreting Knowledge Data for Sustainable Engineering Education: An Experimental Study Using YouTube

With the immersion of a plethora technological tools in early post-COVID-19 era university education, instructors around world have been at forefront implementing hybrid learning spaces for knowledge delivery. The purpose this experimental study is not only to divert primary use YouTube channel into tool support asynchronous teaching; it also aims provide feedback and suggest steps actions implement their teaching modules ensure students’ access new while promoting engagement satisfaction, regardless environment, i.e., face-to-face, distance hybrid. Learners’ viewing habits were analyzed depth from channel’s 37 instructional videos, all which related completion computer-aided mechanical design course. By analyzing interpreting data directly reports, six variables identified tested quantify lack statistically significant changes learners’ habits. Two time periods specifically studied: 2020–2021, when instruction was delivered exclusively via 2021–2022, mode. results both parametric non-parametric statistical tests showed that “Number views” unique viewers” are two behave same studied, demonstrating relevance proposed concept environment. Finally, forthcoming instructor’s manual CAD has developed, integrating methodology sustainable academic educational process.
