Abstract
The process of teaching and learning during the pandemic has been evolving globally, with many institutions transforming their approaches to enhance the teaching and learning experience. Despite the presence of improved frameworks due to the varied learning capabilities of students, it remains quite challenging to analyse individual characteristic features. Consequently, this research provides clear insights into the integration of the Personalised Learning Approach (PLA) to foster effective interaction with students. However, many existing methods suggest different techniques for evaluating learners in a hybrid mode, where obtaining clear data sets can be difficult. In the teaching and learning approach, if the defined data set from experts is clear, decisions regarding the learning characteristics of students can be made in a shorter period. In the proposed method the PLA framework categorizes learners into four engagement-based clusters using a three-dimensional sensor model and machine learning classifiers. A dual-controller mechanism (master-slave) dynamically adjusts communication intervals and optimizes video transmission, reducing latency and packet loss. The methodology is validated using MATLAB-based simulations with a dataset of 1,700-5,000 learners, analyzing throughput, delay, packet loss, and cost efficiency. The test results clearly demonstrate that the PLA outperforms the conventional method, not only with the parameters mentioned above but also in terms of cost-effectiveness using master and slave controllers.
