A study of the impact of technology-enhanced learning on student academic performance. (2014)
Journal Article
Chowdhry, S., Sieler, K., & Alwis, L. (2014). A study of the impact of technology-enhanced learning on student academic performance. Journal of Perspectives in Applied Academic Practice, 2,

In university education a lot of emphasis is placed on the use of the virtual learning environment (VLE) in teaching to enhance the student learning experience. As a result, the academic staff is encouraged to use VLEs in different ways, including as... Read More about A study of the impact of technology-enhanced learning on student academic performance..

Trapping light escaping from the edges of the optical element in a Concentrating Photovoltaic system (2014)
Journal Article

The encapsulant is an important element used for mechanical bonding and optical coupling between the concentrator and the solar cell in a typical concentrating photovoltaic system. In this work we explain the concept of trapping the light escaping th... Read More about Trapping light escaping from the edges of the optical element in a Concentrating Photovoltaic system.

Exploring motorcycle red-light violation in response to pedestrian green signal countdown device (2014)
Journal Article
