STUDENTS’ PERCEPTIONS OF IT SUPPORTED LEARNING

Yıl 2011, Cilt: 6 Sayı: 2, 95 - 100, 01.12.2011

Öz

The objective of this study was to examine the university students’ perceptions and intentions
towards IT supported learning. Eighty-eight undergraduate students from the engineering and management
departments of a young private university in Bosnia and Herzegovina participated in the survey. In responding
to the questionnaire, the participants gave their opinions about IT medium richness, self-efficacy, usefulness,
ease of use, social norms and intentions to use IT in their day-to-day learning. The results revealed significant
differences in perceptions and intentions between junior and senior students. Juniors had significantly higher
regard for IT medium richness and felt higher social norms pressure, but expressed lesser intentions to use IT
tools due to their poorer self-efficacy beliefs. The findings suggest the need for more and earlier students’ IT
exposure and practice in order to gain better skills and form more favourable usage intentions sooner.
