As the online and blended learning has started to be accepted as delivery
methods for teaching, the educators in institutions of higher education need
to explore on how to conduct online class by using multiple types of digital
contents to deliver their learning objects. This paper discusses the fi ndings
of an empirical study in accepting video as one of the teaching materials
to support blended learning activities. Three sets of videos that contain the
learning objects for three different courses were distributed to the students
through i-Learn portal during their online class. Questionnaires were
distributed one week after the videos had been viewed by the students to
assess their acceptance of the new approach and the satisfaction on learning
using videos. The study was carried out on 120 students from Diploma
in Computer Science taking two different computer science courses and
40 students from Diploma in Sport Science taking IT Essential for Sports
course. The analysis from the returned questionnaires by the students shows
that they can adapt with the new approach since most of the students’ are
computer and Internet literate. At the same time, they are also gradually
adapting various types of learning materials.
