Edutainment, e-learning, and perceived challenges and solutions.

Edutainment method refers to the teaching and learning process that is relaxed and entertaining. In line with the advancement of ICT and efforts to improve the quality of education in Malaysia, the method of edutainment in e-learning is increasingly gaining attention and widespread use among educators as an effective teaching and learning strategy. However, it cannot be denied that there are difficulties associated in implementing e-learning as edutainment. Hence, this study intends to investigate the challenges and solutions to the implementation of e-learning as an edutainment approach among students of higher educational level. The study also analyzes the association between the students’ demographic data with their perceived challenges towards the implementation of e-learning as edutainment approach. A quantitative study was conducted by distributed a set of questionnaires to 350 Bachelor of Arts (BA) students from 5 colleges in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia through a random sampling technique. Study found that the perceived challenges (M=4.34), and the perceived solutions to overcome the challenges towards the implementation of e-learning as edutainment approach (M=4.23) are all at high level. Through Chi Square test and Binary Regression analysis, it was discovered that the students' gender, age, and familiarity with edutainment are not significant predictors of the perceived challenges in implementing e-learning as an edutainment approach. In conclusion, e-learning as an edutainment approach can be implemented by the students of various background as it allows for bridging the gap between theory and practice by providing opportunities to gather experiences, share knowledge and provide authentic contexts and activities for learning by doing.
