Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
Research on the integration of interactive multimedia within LMS-based reading courses for undergraduate students identifies critical challenges. Noteworthy issues in Islamic educational settings include limited student access to technology, resulting in uneven engagement, disparities in digital literacy levels, and difficulties in achieving desired learning outcomes. This study employs a sequential mixed-methods approach involving a questionnaire, LMS activity tracking, and interviews with 42 undergraduate students. The findings show significant positive outcomes, including heightened engagement through increased student interaction with digital resources and improved learning outcomes manifested in enhanced academic performance. However, persistent challenges encompass technological barriers and digital literacy disparities. The research underscores the importance of tailored strategies to optimize interactive multimedia integration in LMS platforms. The findings bring crucial implications for enhancing equitable engagement and learning outcomes in Islamic Higher Education. This study provides specific strategies for optimizing LMS-based interactive multimedia to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes in Islamic Higher Education.
