Abstract

Engagement in the virtual learning environment for logistics education is becoming increasingly important, especially at the Higher Education level. Previous studies have shown that in order to achieve learning objectives by increasing student engagement during the learning process, it is necessary to consider 'how it happened'. Academics and logistics practitioners have also reported the need to find common denominator in preparing students for real-world experiences. This study investigates the need of Simulation Mobile Learning in enhancing logistics education. Action research was applied in this study and two intervention plans were designed and developed to examine the changes in enhancing logistics education. Cycle-1 is to identify the need for Simulation Mobile Learning in enhancing logistics education and finally to access the students’ interest in Simulation Mobile Learning and evaluate the usability level perception. In Cycle-2 the purpose is to measure the students’ knowledge by comparing their score marks and evaluating their usability level perception. With that, the research design employed in this study was the mixedmethods approach by combining qualitative and quantitative method accordingly by using ADDIE model phase. The questionnaire was distributed to Diploma in Logistics and Supply Chain Management students at Nilai Polytechnic, Negeri Sembilan. A total of 76 respondents in Cycle-1 and 50 respondents in Cycle-2. A usability questionnaire categorized four primary domains, which are usefulness, ease of learning, efficiency of use and satisfaction was applied to evaluate the Simulation Mobile Learning usability level perception. Data were analysed using SPSS to find comparative analysis and significant value. The outcomes revealed that the usability level of the proposed method had been high among the students, for the contexts of usefulness, ease of learning, efficiency of use and satisfaction. Therefore, the use of Simulation Mobile Learning is indeed relevant and appropriate in enhancing logistics education.
