Hybrid E-Training Assessment Tool for Higher Education

As time becomes an issue in teaching and learning or training in higher educational institutions, most trainers resort to lecture-based training. When training is restraint to predominantly lecture method, meaningful learning may not be the main intention of training any longer. This is due to the fact that lecture method is essentially more pertinent for learners with auditory learning style preference only. Thus, this study attempts to develop a meaningful hybrid e-training environment for higher education and its’ evaluation tool. The paper however, will focus more on the process of developing a valid assessment tool by determining the valid factors for the measurement of e-training using principal component analysis method.
