Accessibility of Google Classroom by Undergraduates for Learning

Abstract

Availability that lacks accessibility is nothing different from unavailability. The aftermath of COVID19 had forced most schools to employ several learning technologies with Google classroom inclusive. This study thus investigates undergraduate access to Google classroom for learning. This study employs the survey method and 250 undergraduates were purposively sampled. The findings established that undergraduate students have adequate access to google classroom for learning vocational and entrepreneurship courses and there was significant relationship between undergraduate access and utilization of google classroom for learning. The study concluded that access to Google classroom was directly proportional to its utilization. It was however recommended that lecturers should use the Google classroom to facilitate their instructional process.

Students’ Participation and Motivational Factors in Student-Centered Learning: A Case of Two Malaysian Vocational Institutes

“…The findings also show a strong positive relationship between several factors: (i) classroom environment factors (Malaguial et al, 2021;Aderogba et al, 2021;Ahmad, 2021;Ochayi et al, 2021) (ii) student's interest (Dermawan et al, 2021;Fadhillah & Maryanti, 2021;Putri et al, 2021;Hashim et al, 2021;Ardiana et al, 2022;Kamila & Sakti, 2022) (iii) student's motivation (Permana et al, 2021;Suhana et al, 2022;Sopian et al, 2022;Hernawati et al, 2021;Tarmawan et al, 2021). This shows that the more conducive and safer the classroom environment the more likely students are to have high motivation.…”

“…In this study, student involvement was also driven by classroom environment factors. A conducive classroom environment can maintain the attention and interest of students to continue learning (Ochayi et al, 2021a;Aderogba et al, 2021;Ahmad, 2021a;Ochayi et al, 2021;Joshua et al 2022). Clean classrooms encourage students to engage in classroom learning and make the student-centered learning process run smoothly without interruption.…”
