Abstract
The focus of this project is in the provision of quality education in the polytechnic. In the process of understanding what is meant by quality in higher education, the definition and application of quality in education is discussed. To effectively adopt the quality philosophy into the teaching arena, student motivation for learning was observed for a group of 1st year Qua1.ity Assurance Engineering (QAE) students. The current teaching methodology of the topic on Introduction to Quality for the module on Fundamentals of Quality Assurance (FQA) was used as a model. Assessment of student learning and the assessment methods used were also examined. The final part of the project proposes a teaching methodology incorporating new technologies in teaching particularly in the area of multimedia and comparing it to the traditional and classical approach to lectures, tutorials, and laboratory practices.
