Main Article Content
Abstract
The main objective of this study is to determine 1) the influencing factors of the attitude and behavioral intention of students majoring in product design to online learning, 2) determine what actions should be taken by students, teachers, teaching managers and university in the process of online learning, and 3) put forward suggestions that affect the attitude and behavioral intention of students in online learning.
Based on the theories of TAM, TAM3 and UTAUT, this study constructed a research model of students' attitudes and behavioral intentions towards online learning. This research takes the students majoring in product design as the research sample, and the participants are all learning experience online learning. The research instrument is the questionnaire, with a total of 33 survey questions. A total of 450 valid questionnaire survey data were collected. Statistics used in data analysis were frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, skewness, kurtosis and hypotheses testing.
The results showed that 1) PEOU has a significant impact on PU, 2) PEOU has a significant impact on ATU, 3) PU has a significant impact on ATU, 4) ATU has a significant impact on BI, 5) SI has a significant impact on BI, 6) PE has a significant impact on BI, 7) SE has a significant impact on PEOU. The main conclusions of this study are 1) to ensure that online learning is easy to operate and use, 2) enhance students' sense of self-efficacy, 3) make students aware of the important role of online learning, 4) enable students to feel the importance and positive role of online learning from the external world.
