https://doi.org/10.35516/edu.v49i2.1040الكلمات المفتاحية:
التعلم الإلكتروني، قبول وتبني التعلم الإلكتروني، النظرية الموحدة لقبول واستخدام التكنولوجياالملخص
الأهداف: يهدف البحث إلى تعرُّف العوامل التي تؤثر في تبني واستخدام الطلبة للتعلم الإلكتروني في الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية والمملكة العربية السعودية من خلال تطبيق البحث على عينة من جامعة فينيكس في أمريكا، والجامعة السعودية الإلكترونية في المملكة العربية السعودية.
المنهجية: اعتمد البحث نموذج النظرية الموحدة لقبول واستخدام التكنولوجيا Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT)، كإطار عام للبحث بعد تطويره لاختبار متغيرات البحث، واستخدم المنهج الوصفي التحليلي.
النتائج: أشارت نتائج البحث إلى أن عوامل: الأداء المتوقع، والجهد المتوقع، والتسهيلات من ضمن العوامل التي تؤثر في قبول الطالب لاستخدام التعلم الإلكتروني، إلا أن تأثير الأداء المتوقع والتسهيلات على الطالب في أمريكا أكبر من السعودية، بينما تأثير عامل الجهد المتوقع على الطالب في السعودية أكبر من أمريكا. كذلك تشير النتائج إلى أن عامل الأثر الاجتماعي له تأثير إيجابي في الطالب في السعودية، بينما لا يوجد أي تأثير أو علاقة بين الأثر الاجتماعي وقبول الطالب لاستخدام التعلم الإلكتروني في أمريكا، أيضاَ أشارت النتائج إلى وجود تأثير لنوع الطالب على متغيرات النموذج (الأداء المتوقع، الجهد المتوقع، الأثر الاجتماعي)، وكذلك يوجد تأثير لعمر وخبرة الطالب بالتكنولوجيا على متغيرات النموذج. بينما لا يوجد تأثير للمتغيرات الديموغرافية على متغيرات النموذج في أمريكا، وعليه لا يوجد تأثير في الميل السلوكي للطالب لقبول وتبني التعلم الإلكتروني.
التوصيات: وتوصي الدراسة بالتوسع في استخدام التعلم الإلكتروني في باقي الجامعات السعودية، ودراسة العوامل المؤثرة في تبني واستخدام التعلم الإلكتروني في جامعات محلية وعربية وعالمية، إضافة إلى محاولة دراسة هذه العوامل على طلبة التعليم العام.
