Abstract

Recently, due to the coronavirus pandemic, we are experiencing a revolution that is transforming the way, the education has now shifted to an “physical plus digital” or “phygital” multimodal.

This paper analyses the students’ behavioral intention to the phygital learning, meaning how students use online learning platform (e.g. Moodle), collaboration application (e.g. Microsoft teams), chat application (e.g. Wechat) and device (e.g. smartphone, laptop) of a course.

For the evaluation purpose is followed by using the Semantic Differential Technique to distinguish the usage attitude of computer and smartphone. The Usage Questionnaire is followed by the System Usability Scale (SUS), which is a Human Computer Interaction (HCI) based approach, and the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), which is an Information Systems (IS) based approach. The sample size consisted of 68 participants completed the survey questionnaire measuring their responses to perceived usefulness (PU), perceived ease of use (PEOU) and attitudes towards usage (ATU).

Through simultaneously both these instruments in one work for the purpose of usability evaluation. By doing so, this work attempts to streamline and unify the process of usability evaluation. Results that are obtained from a large-scale survey of university students show the attitudes towards usage on phygital learning. Moreover, this work also considers the digital-divide aspect (mobile v.s. web environment) whether it has any effect on the perceived usability. Results show that the multiple education modal could reduce the stress on the learning.
