Abstract
Technology-facility collaboration is being widely deployed in modern classrooms. The Strategy of Saudi Arabia universities is using interactive television technology, while engaging students at distance education. This study is designed to investigate the students’ opinions about interactive television method versus traditional lecture as a mean of delivery for undergraduate students’ courses. This study conducted in Community College, affiliated to King Abd-El Aziz University. Student Evaluation of Teaching Questionnaire was used to assess the opinion of the sample of undergraduate students in the last academic year. This study shows that while students have accepted interactive television method, most students strongly preferred the traditional lecture method to teach courses. Some problems were evidenced in that new method. Lecturer’s inability to manage class environment, lacking experience lecturer, and unavailability of in time of exam, were the most statistically significant students’ problems. Interactive television teaching method in Saudi Arabian university classes is newly introduced method for teaching of only some subjects. Accordingly, it is recommended that faculty put into consideration to select effective teaching strategy particularly suitable for such settings and those specific groups of Saudi Arabian students.
