Undergraduate Education Students' Perceptions and Challenges of Learning Calculus Through Blended Learning

Blended learning has recently gained popularity in training and education. It was a combination of two learning styles, which are face-to-face teaching and some of the technological aids that have been widely used in teaching and learning. This study is meant to be an addition to the in-class lectures and to assist students in understanding calculus subjects at their own pace and time. The purpose of this study is to describe students' perceptions of blended learning and to determine whether blended learning affects their readiness and challenges in learning calculus. A total of 86 Mathematics Education students were involved in this study, in which a series of questionnaires were distributed to evaluate their readiness and learning perceptions. Based on the findings, a conclusion has been made regarding the role of blended learning in supporting teaching and learning. The results showed that students demonstrate positive perceptions using the blended learning approach in some of the subjects.
