Teachers' Experiences towards Usage of Learning Management System: CANVAS

Published:21 January 2020Publication History

ABSTRACT

The automated way of learning and interacting with students bids a lot of advantages that can be accomplished through different system. Among them, the most popular approach is the use of a learning management system. Canvas, the world's most reliable LMS is a platform being introduced in universities of the Philippines. This research aims to examine the experiences of instructors towards usage of Canvas according to the UTAUT (Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology) model. A total of 130 instructors teaching different courses and are exposed to the use of CANVAS participated in this study. An adopted and modified set of questionnaire based on UTAUT used to collect data which is then descriptively analyzed using SmartPLS 3. Results of this study encourage teachers to maximize the use of technology. Significant results and information were also obtained for administrators, instructors and students on how to improve effective usage of the system.
