QUALITY AND EFFICIENCY OF B-LEARNING COURSES IN ENGINEERING EDUCATION

During the three last years, two Physics subjects in the first year of an engineering school were teaching by a b-learning methodology. This methodology has proved to be very suitable for the teaching of repeat students due especially to three factors: satisfaction, efficiency and knowledge. This conclusion has been obtained from different surveys made by the students. Besides, the number of passed students among this type of students also confirms the suitability of this methodology.

In this article, we have gone more deeply into these aspects. In particular, we have investigated the main factors that determine the larger satisfaction, efficiency and acquired knowledge in learners. The continuous-assessment process and the continuous study in this b-learning methodology are the more valued elements by the students. Beside these, we can find others, such as, the online activities, the computer didactic material or the dedication to problem study. All this type of information will be always important to improve or define an appropriate methodology.
