ABSTRACT
With the rapid development and implementation of Internet of Things (IoT) based technologies, we recognize significant improvements in many aspects of life, and education is no exception. To come up with a social distancing strategy in teaching and learning and to enrich the students’ learning experience while meeting the challenge of the pandemic, this study aims to examine the effectiveness of virtual station rotation model deployed in Blackboard in learning double integral (one of the topics in Calculus). The findings indicate that the students were able to achieve equally well results through virtual station rotation model deployed with breakout groups feature in Blackboard as compared to students who learned the same context in an asynchronous class with noninteractive recorded video lectures. It is evident that virtual station rotation model benefits both teacher and students in their learning process.
