The aim of this study is to attain more understanding about students’ preference and perception on different methods of group presentation during lecture session.

Data were obtained from self-administered questionnaire which measured students’ preparation, learning experience, assessment and overall satisfaction for both methods. The responses were measured using a 10-Point Interval Scale rating with 1 showed “strongly disagree” whilst 10 showed “strongly agree”. Results showed that there are significant difference on perception between mean score of conventional-presentation method and the mean score of forced-presentation method for construct learning experiences, assessment, and overall satisfaction (p-values are less than 0.05). It can be concluded that students preferred forced-presentation method to enhance their learning
experiences.
