In recent years, there has been a notable transformation in the educational landscape, marked by
a significant shift towards digital teaching methodologies driven by technological advancements. The
significance of digital teaching became especially evident during the pandemic era, where educators and
students faced challenges in adapting to online teaching and learning. This study aims to explore the impact
of digital teaching on the effectiveness of students' learning experiences, focusing on three main objectives:
(i) examining students' perceptions towards digital learning, (ii) identifying factors influencing students'
engagement in digital learning, and (iii) exploring the relationship between student perception and
engagement in digital teaching. Data collection involved a self-reported survey administered to 150
respondents from Polytechnic Seberang Perai. Results revealed a higher mean in student perception (2.97)
and student engagement (2.81), indicating majority agreement with the survey items. Correlation analysis
demonstrated a significant relationship between student perception and engagement towards digital
teaching, as evidenced by a Pearson correlation coefficient with a p-value < 0.001. However, the correlation
was moderate, accounting for 43.7% of the variance. This study suggests that future research should delve
deeper into the issue of engagement in digital teaching by not only considering institutional and student
perceptions but also focusing on appropriate instructional design models and associated learning theories
and principles for effective utilization of digital teaching methods.
