| Summary: | This research aims to investigate the salient factors that influence the behavioural
intention on adoption of mobile technology in the learning environment. Rapid growth of
Third Generation (3G) mobile technology has changed our student’s life style radically. It
incorporates voice data and internet access, which turns the smart phone equal to a
computer system. This ubiquities feature extends opportunities into learning
environment. This study is to find out the determinants that influence the adoption of
mobile technology among the undergraduate students and to increase learning activities
using mobile technologies in the universities in future. The modified Unified Theory of
Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model adopted to determine the factors
that influence the behavioural intention to use mobile technology in the learning
environment. Structural Equation Modeling technique (SEM) employed for analysing
the data collected from 351 students. The result indicates that Performance Expectancy,
Affordability and Podcast are the salient factors that influence the behavioural intention
on adopting mobile technology in learning environment and age and gender do not have
a significant effect on adopting mobile technology. The study contributes to the body of
knowledge in the area of adoption of mobile technology and provides a foundation for
future implementation of mobile learning in educational institutions. |
