What is MFIT

Advanced Technology-Assisted Problem Solving in Engineering Education: Emerging Research and Opportunities
Multiple function interaction technique that allows multiple task to be performed simultaneously (i.e., using two or more fingers to select options on the screen, selecting, dragging, resizing image on the screen, etc.).

Empirical Study Outcome of Augmented Reality Technology for Solving Engineering Problems in UNITEN
DOI: 10.4018/978-1-7998-0465-9.ch007
Abstract
In this chapter, the preferences of UNITEN students in using augmented reality technology user interface applications to solve selected engineering problems are compared. Cross sectional study design and Wilcoxon-Signed Rank Test approach were adopted to analyze the difference in the rankings of the engineering applications. Within a controlled environment, this research further applies “trials within the same session but with breaks between tasks,” an affirmed reliable method in measuring learnability that has been rarely explored by any related works locally. The results were captured through descriptive statistical analysis. The findings provided reliable evidences that multiple function user interface (MFIT) is more effective than the tangible user interface (TUI) for engineering students. Simultaneously, this research also presents evidences that MFIT is better than TUI in the engineering problem solving statistically.
