Worksheet Design and Learning Effectiveness: A Comprehensive Analysis in Electrical Installation and Maintenance Training
Keywords:
Technical drafting skills, Electrical Installation and Maintenance, Instructional materials, Active learning, Self-directed learning, Multimedia integrationAbstract
This study examines the effectiveness of worksheets in enhancing technical drafting skills within the realm of Electrical Installation and Maintenance (EIM) education. Through a systematic review of existing literature, key findings regarding the impact, variability, and areas for improvement in worksheet design and implementation are synthesized. The review highlights the importance of worksheets as valuable instructional materials for promoting active engagement, practical application, and skill development among students in EIM education. Clear instructions, structured activities, opportunities for self-directed learning, and integration of multimedia elements emerge as key features associated with enhanced learning outcomes. However, variability in worksheet design and implementation underscores the need for further research and standardization efforts to optimize their educational utility. Future research endeavors should explore optimal formats, content, and delivery methods of worksheets, while establishing standardized guidelines for development and evaluation. By addressing these gaps, educators can enhance the effectiveness and relevance of worksheets as instructional tools in EIM education, ultimately empowering students to succeed in mastering technical drafting skills and preparing for future careers in the field.
