| Sumario: | An e-learning module including a 3-hour online lecture plus 7-hour self-study materials was developed to provide education on law-abidance leadership and national security law (NSL) education among senior-year intake who enter the university in year 3 of a 4-year undergraduate program. The present study reported evaluation findings derived from a mixed-method study incorporating quantitative and qualitative evaluation data to outline students' perceptions of the online program. A total of 839 students completed the 19-item subjective outcome evaluation and 28 students participated in the focus group interviews. Quantitative results revealed that students generally held positive views toward the online NSL education program, such as favorable feedback toward the program attributes, benefits of the program in terms of promoting law-abidance awareness and leadership, and self-paced learning mode. Qualitative results also demonstrated the students' overall positive learning experiences and their appreciation for the value of and need for education on law abidance and NSL, despite some challenges and difficulties (e.g., language barriers) encountered in learning. Most importantly, the students did not perceive the NSL education as brainwashing. These findings are in line with previous positive evaluation results, providing additional support for the meaningful use of online learning in NSL education and its effectiveness.
