Agenda pendigitalan pengajaran dan pembelajaran (PdP) menekankan keperluan bahan rujukan digital yang mesra pengguna dan mudah diakses. Kursus Quantitative Methods dikenal pasti sebagai subjek teras yang mencabar kerana melibatkan formula kompleks yang sukar difahami dan diingati oleh pelajar. Kajian ini memperkenalkan pendekatan peta minda formula berasaskan Eduvision melalui pembangunan E‑book digital sebagai inovasi PdP. Kajian tindakan ini dijalankan di Politeknik Kota Bharu melibatkan 54 orang pelajar Semester 3 daripada program Diploma Pengajian Perniagaan dan Diploma Pemasaran. Data dikumpul melalui soal selidik Google Form yang dipaut pada E‑book, dengan analisis kuantitatif (skor min dan korelasi Pearson) serta kualitatif (tema jawapan terbuka). Dapatan menunjukkan penerimaan pelajar sangat positif; 83% memilih Sangat Setuju bahawa peta minda membantu kefahaman, ingatan, penglibatan, kreativiti dan motivasi. Skor min berada pada tahap tinggi (3.78 – 3.85), manakala nilai korelasi Pearson (r = 0.85 – 0.92) menunjukkan hubungan yang kuat antara aspek pembelajaran. Maklum balas kualitatif turut menegaskan pelajar lebih cepat faham, mudah mengingat formula dan lebih berminat menggunakan bahan digital berwarna serta ringkas. Secara keseluruhan, E‑book ini berpotensi besar sebagai bahan PdP inovatif yang menyokong agenda pendigitalan serta meningkatkan penguasaan pelajar terhadap formula kompleks.
The digitalization agenda of teaching and learning (PdP) highlights the need for accessible, user‑friendly digital resources. Quantitative Methods, a core subject with complex formulas, remains challenging for students to master. This study introduces an Eduvision‑based mind mapping approach through a digital E‑book as an innovative PdP strategy. Conducted at Politeknik Kota Bharu, the action research involved 54 Semester 3 students from Business Studies and Marketing programs, using purposive sampling. Data were collected via a Google Form questionnaire embedded in the E‑book, combining quantitative and qualitative analyses. Results showed strong student acceptance. 83% strongly agreed that mind mapping improved comprehension, memory, engagement, creativity and motivation. Mean scores (3.78 – 3.85) confirmed high effectiveness, while Pearson correlations (r = 0.85 – 0.92) indicated strong relationships among key learning aspects. Qualitative feedback reinforced these findings, noting clearer understanding, faster recall and increased interest in digital, visually structured materials. Overall, the E‑book demonstrates significant potential as a structured, student‑friendly innovation that supports PdP digitalization and enhances mastery of complex formulas.
