Abstract

With the developing technology and COVID-19 pandemic, certain changes have been made in various areas. One of these changes has emerged in education as the transformation of conventional learning systems into online learning systems. The online learning system is effective if both teaching staff and students are prepared in terms of presenting information content and assessing student performance. Otherwise, certain problems may be encountered throughout the adaptation process. Therefore, it is crucial to determine the factors affecting the utilization of online learning systems. The present study aims to find out the factors influencing the utilization of online learning systems by accounting students enrolled in both state and foundation universities in Türkiye during the COVID-19 pandemic. To this end, a survey questionnaire method was employed and survey questionnaire data were analyzed using SPSS and SmartPLS software. The analysis results revealed that social trust had an impact on perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use had an impact on perceived usefulness, and subjective norms had an impact on perceived usefulness; whereas perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and subjective norms were predictors of behavioral intention to use, and actual use was also affected by behavioral intention to use.

Özet

Gelişen teknoloji ve COVID-19 pandemisi ile birlikte çeşitli alanlarda belirli değişiklikler yapılmıştır. Bu değişikliklerden biri de geleneksel öğrenme sistemlerinin çevrimiçi öğrenme sistemlerine dönüşmesi olarak eğitimde ortaya çıkmıştır. Online öğrenme sistemi, bilgi içeriğinin sunulması ve öğrenci performansının değerlendirilmesi açısından hem eğiticiler hem de öğrencilerin hazırlıklı olması durumunda etkili olmaktadır. Aksi durumda, sürece uyum sağlanması noktasında birtakım sorunlarla karşılaşılabilmektedir. Bu nedenle, online öğrenme sistemlerinin kullanımını etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye’deki devlet ve vakıf üniversitelerinde eğitimlerini sürdüren muhasebe öğrencilerinin Covid - 19 salgını döneminde online öğrenme sistemlerini kullanmalarını etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda, Türkiye’deki devlet ve vakıf üniversitelerindeki muhasebe öğrencilerine anket uygulanmıştır. Anket verileri Spss ve SmartPLS programları kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçlarında sosyal güvenin algılanan kullanım kolaylığı ve algılanan fayda üzerinde, algılanan kullanım kolaylığının algılanan fayda üzerinde, öznel normların algılanan fayda üzerinde etkilerinin olduğu; öznel normlar, algılanan fayda ve algılanan kullanım kolaylığının kullanım niyetinin yordayıcıları olduğu ve gerçek kullanımın da kullanım niyetinden etkilendiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
