Abstract
Mobile learning was popular during the epidemic, and a number of schools in China used the Superstar Application to assist distance learning. Therefore, it is relevant to investigate students' satisfaction with the use of the Superstar application in the classroom to enhance student learning.
The purpose of the study was 1) To identify the factors that affect vocational colleges students' satisfaction with the Superstar application, and 2) To determine the level of vocational college students’ satisfaction towards the Superstar Application.
This research utilized a quantitative approach, using a questionnaire as a survey tool to collect sample data from the target population. The purposive sampling strategy, inviting 415 students from Deyang Vocational College of Technical and Trade to participate in the research. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) were employed to assess the model's fit and establish the causal relationships between the variables for hypothesis testing.
The research's conceptual framework was constructed upon the foundation of the Web-based Learning Environment Instrument (WEBLEI) and the Expectation-Confirmation Model (ECM), with seven variables being identified as access, interaction, response, result, perceived usefulness, confirmation, and satisfaction. It was found that six of the seven hypotheses proposed were proven to achieve the research objectives, while the hypothesis between confirmation and satisfaction was not proven. The results of the study showed that the factors affecting students' satisfaction with the Superstar Application in vocational and technical colleges were access, interaction, response, result, and perceived usefulness; with perceived usefulness being the strongest predictor directly affecting the Superstar Application; and the result variable had a significant effect on students' satisfaction with Superstar Application use. In addition, the study also found that although confirmation did not directly impact satisfaction, confirmation played a significant role in perceived usefulness.
