Engineering Education, Mathematics Education

Resource-based course guide is an instructional material incorporating resource-based learning that emphasizes the use of resources in support of student-centered learning. This study was focused on the development and effectiveness of a Resource-Based Course Guide in Teaching Advanced Engineering Mathematics. The features of the instructional material include the use of varied learning resources, the use of student-centered and collaborative learning strategies, and the use of appropriate computer applications. The findings of this study based on the evaluation of jurors revealed that the developed course guides are all rated very satisfactory along the various aspects: alignment, content, pedagogical components, and technical aspects. The study employed a quantitative method utilizing a pre-experimental design. The study utilized a pretest and posttest for the pre-experimental group of 36 students. Results found a significant difference in the mean scores in terms of the pretest-posttest conducted and thus indicate that the intervention had caused the difference in the mean of the experimental class.
