| Popis: | AbstractWith the rapid digital paradigm shift in educational settings, it is of utmost importance to comprehend the factors that influence the inclination of students towards utilising tablet-based learning. This study examined students’ intentions to use Tablet-based Learning (TBL) through an extended UTAUT2 model. Descriptive cross-sectional survey design was employed for the study. A questionnaire was utilised to collect data from 409 students in public senior high schools (SHSs) in the Kumasi Metropolis, Ghana. The novel variance-based structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyse the data. The study revealed that perceived learning opportunities, trust, effort expectancy, hedonic motivation, social influence and facilitating conditions had significant positive influence on students’ intention to use Tablet-based Learning. Also, the findings revealed that perceived learning opportunity and trust were the most external decisive factors for individual student’s intention with regards to Tablet-based Learning. Meanwhile, students’ attitude had a significant negative effect on their intention to use Tablet-based Learning. The study provides valuable insights for education policymakers and senior high school administrators regarding the essential factors that students require for effective implementation of Tablet-based learning systems. |
