Abstract:
This study aimed to develop and evaluate an educational website for carpentry to enhance Industrial Arts instruction among Grade 10 Technology and Livelihood Education (TLE) teachers. A descriptive exploratory sequential mixed-methods design was employed. The qualitative phase involved five (n = 5) TLE–Industrial Arts teachers who participated in interviews and document analysis to identify instructional gaps. The quantitative phase included expert validation (n = 5) and teacher acceptability evaluation (n = 20) using standardized instruments. The developed website was assessed using the User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ) across the dimensions of clarity, efficiency, dependability, originality, and stimulation. Results revealed high mean scores across all dimensions, ranging from 3.61 to 3.92, interpreted as “Strongly Agree,” with an overall mean of 3.75, indicating a very high level of acceptability of the developed website. The standard deviation values (SD = 0.24–0.41) indicate low variability among participants’ responses, suggesting consistency in evaluations. The findings suggest that the integration of a user-centred digital platform improves accessibility, engagement, and instructional efficiency in carpentry education. The study highlights the importance of localized digital resources in vocational education, and the developed website serves as a practical instructional tool that supports teachers in delivering competency-based carpentry lessons aligned with curriculum standards.
