| Summary: | The aim of this study is to measure the level of satisfaction(if present), of the distance
learners towards the learning environment in UiTM Alor Gajah Campus. Five aspects
of learning satisfaction are looked at: rewards, social life, learning condition,
recognition and quality of education. The researchers also looked at six independent
variables : age, gender, marital status, working experience, income and program. A
total of 186 questionnaires were distributed but only 178 were received. Data was
analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). The results revealed
that the majority of the respondents indicated an intermediate level of satisfaction
towards the five aspects of the learning environment provided by the campus. Many
adult learners met the satisfactory level of the CSSQ scale except for the learning
condition aspect which was slight. It was also discovered that age, study level and
marital status played a significant role in influencing learning satisfaction levels. Based
on these results, it is recommended that the physical ,psychological and sociological
environment be improved. With all these, it is hoped that a conducive climate to adult
learning will be established. |
