Investigation On Lecturer Acceptance And Use Of E-portfolio In Tabuk University In Saudi Arabia.
PhD thesis, Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Abstract
In recent decades, the E-portfolio system has gotten much attention. An Eportfolio
is a helpful tool for teaching, learning, and growth that involves lecturers and
students and is backed up by feedback from the faculty. The study’s primary goal is to
look at the factors affecting lecturers' accepting and using of E-portfolios at the
University of Tabuk in Saudi Arabia. In order to provide a new, extended version of
the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology, this study integrates the
already-existing variables of performance expectation, effort expectancy, social
influence, and enabling factors (UTAUT). Three new variables were introduced to the
new expanded model: perceived triability from the Defining Issue Test (DIT) theory,
computer self-efficacy from Systematic Concept Teaching (SCT) theory, and selfmanagement.
This study used a quantitative approach, and the 292 respondents were
lecturers from the University of Tabuk. The data collection, the researcher, constructed
an online survey in Google Drive. The quantitative approach employed in this study
comprises the examination of a particular subject for statistical data generation. The
analysis was performed using Smart Partial Least Squire (Smart-PLS). The results
show that behavioural intention is positively correlated with performance expectation,
effort expectation, and self-management, but social influence, perceived triability, and
computer self-efficacy are not. Furthermore, the utilisation of an E-portfolio is
favourably associated with behavioural intention and enabling conditions. The fast
transformation of the future, it may be argued, creates a problem for instructional
planners and strategists.
