Abstract :
The development of diverse human skills and abilities is a necessity, especially in the construction and development of the learning process. Furthermore, interactivity is an important new technology that has underpinned the learning process in recent years. This paper examines interactivity using a novel format of electronic lecturing. The Interactive Electronic Lecturing System is an application that offers interactivity between students and their lecturers by providing certain technologies. An experiment was conducted to check the level of interactivity with this system, in which mixed methods were adopted to examine the satisfaction of participants using the system. Thirty two students from the IT and Education departments of King Abdulaziz University (KAU) participated in the experiment and the result showed that the participants were satisfied and had a positive experience when using the IELS.
