Abstract
The lack of interactive, technology-enhanced teaching materials specifically designed for development drawing makes it difficult for teachers and students to master complex topics in engineering drawing. This research designed, developed, and evaluated a simulation-based learning module for engineering drawing, especially on development drawing topics. The module was developed through a structured process of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation to address the challenges encountered by pre-service teachers in visualizing and representing three-dimensional objects in a two-dimensional form. As a result, an e-module known as the Smart Learning Module (SLM) has been developed, using 3D Blender and Articulate Storyline, to meet the standards of the content offered in the relevant university course. This research adopted a Research and Development (R&D) approach, guided by the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation (ADDIE) model to develop the SLM, and employed a quantitative approach to assess user acceptance of the SLM based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), focusing on perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and intention to use among 30 pre-service teachers in TVET. The findings showed that the acceptance of SLM in terms of PEOU had a mean of 4.53 (SD = 0.57), PU with a mean of 4.55 (SD = 0.53), and BI with a mean of 4.60 (SD = 0.55). The SLM is therefore considered a valuable and useful instructional tool for engineering drawing, which supports teachers and students in leveraging modern technology to enhance their understanding.
