Abstract

Responding to the imperative of keeping pace with the dynamic nature of technological innovations in the field of mechanical engineering, the integration of e-learning emerges as a promising avenue. The study used a descriptive-analytic method, a survey questionnaire, and the ISO standard model, specifically ISO 25010, and distributed it to 110 randomly selected respondents. The findings indicate a consistently high rating for effectiveness from reviewees, reviewers, and newly qualified board passers. There was strong agreement among them regarding the platform's efficacy across various dimensions, including content design, media design, visual design, feedback mechanisms, and assessment items. The performance expectancy and effort expectancy did not exert a significant influence on the behavioral intention to use the hybrid mechanical engineering review platform.
