The adoption of Learning Management System (LMS) in Malaysia public higher learning institutions (HLIs) is already almost hundred percent. LMS platforms are held instrumental for online learning because embedded with integrated technologies that enable the flexibility of instruction beyond classroom. However, various studies found that usage behavior among educators towards LMS is still an issue. Many educators are still hesitating to utilize the LMS. Hence, more findings are needed to identify the motivational factors that may contribute to the behavior as well as to monitor the possible changing trends of the usage according to place and time. To respond to the above matter in the context of Malaysia public HLI, a cross-sectional survey was administered in August 2017 involving 165 lecturers from International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) in both campuses (Gombak and Kuantan). Respondents from twelve faculties were selected by using proportional stratified sampling method. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) (Davis, 1985) is used as the main framework and extended with facilitating conditions (FC) as an external variable. The findings show that the Cronbach Alpha value of each variable is between .80 – .97, some direct and indirect associations between the variables are supported, the differences in the trends of using iTa’LeEM (i.e.: IIUM institutional LMS) across different teaching fields have been identified, and the trend of low utilization is solely predicted by the lecturers’ perceived usefulness of the system. In overall, this study adds insight of how lecturers in Malaysia public HLIs view and act toward LMS.
******************************************************************************
Penggunaan Sistem Pengurusan Pembelajaran (LMS) di institusi pengajian tinggi awam
(IPTA) di Malaysia telah hampir mencapai seratus peratus. Pelantar LMS dikatakan
instrumental kepada pembelajaran atas talian kerana dilengkapi dengan teknologi-teknologi
bersepadu yang membolehkan penyampaian secara fleksibel di luar bilik darjah.
Walaubagaimanapun, pelbagai kajian menjumpai sikap kepenggunaan dikalangan pendidik
terhadap LMS masih menjadi satu isu. Ramai pendidik masih teragak-agak untuk
menggunakan LMS secara optimal. Oleh itu, lebih banyak dapatan diperlukan untuk
mengenalpasti faktor-faktor motivasi yang mungkin menyumbang kepada sikap tersebut
serta memantau kemungkinan terdapat perubahan pada tren penggunaan mengikut tempat
dan masa. Untuk menanggapi perkara di atas dalam konteks IPTA di Malaysia, satu bancian
rentas sempadan telah dijalankan pada Ogos 2017 melibatkan 165 pensyarah dari Universiti
Islam Antarabangsa Malaysia (UIAM) di kedua-dua kampus (Gombak dan Kuantan). Responden dari dua belas fakulti telah dipilih menggunakan kaedah pensampelan berstrata
berkadar. Model Penerimaan Teknologi (TAM) (Davis, 1985) telah digunakan sebagai
rangka kerja utama dan ditambah dengan syarat memudahkan (FC) sebagai satu pemboleh
ubah luaran. Dapatan-dapatan menunjukkan nilai Cronbach Alpha untuk setiap pemboleh
ubah adalah diantara .80 - .97, beberapa kaitan secara terus dan tidak terus diantara
pemboleh ubah disokong, perbezaan didalam tren penggunaan iTa’LeEM (iaitu LMS institusi
di UIAM) merentasi bidang pengajaran yang berbeza telah dikenalpasti dan tren
penggunaan yang rendah adalah semata-mata diramalkan oleh persepsi tentang kegunaan
sistem tersebut. Secara keseluruhannya, kajian ini menambahkan beebrapa pandangan
tentang cara pensyarah-pensyarah di IPTA di Malaysia melihat dan bertindak terhadap
LMS. |
