Statistical analysis of learners’ ubiquity and autonomy: Sustaining the development of learning management system (LMS) for L2 proficiency

Abstract

In recent times learning ubiquity and autonomy have emerged as prominent e-learning models as they equip learners with the access of resources at any place and any time which implies taking charge of one’s learning as per the need and purpose. The present study takes stock of ubiquitous (UL) and autonomous learning (LA) as influencing factors for assessing students’ willingness to adopt (WA) LMS for enhancing L2 proficiency. The target population for this study consisted 302 professional students. Data is analyzed using SPSS ver.21. Regression model indicates that both LA (p=.000, β=.289) and UL (p=.000, β=.461) significantly contribute to students’ adoption of LMS. Independent sample t-test results indicate that no significant variation is found in test performance between male and female students. The findings of the proposed model will prove beneficial to assess the reception of LMS among students and will enable the educational institutions to concentrate on LMS’s effective implementation so that they can invest in e-learning technology wisely.
