usually delivered through face-to-face teaching in the studio setting. The
advancement of technology, through the existence of online learning platforms
such as learning management systems and the Massive Open Online Course
systems, has benefitted many educators in delivering their courses due to the
flexibility and personalised learning environment provided by most of the online
learning platforms. Regardless of all the constraints, especially in its reliability in
demonstrating the learner’s competency level, art subjects can also be delivered
through online learning. This study intends to observe the users’ experience in
performing the tasks on the course page in an art course at Open University
Malaysia delivered through the massive open online course platform at
openlearning.com. It also aims to observe the behaviour of the 616 participants in
the course. The course has been conducted since October 2014. The study will
report on the user experience based on the observation of the number of views on
the course page and average time spent per second on the page. Both the number
of views and average time spent per second are measured through the split (A/B)
testing method to measure how those two groups perform, categorised according
to the content. [ABSTRACT BY AUTHOR]Read More
