Abstract

The study was carried out to determine perceived influence of the use of e-learning technologies on the learning of Business Education courses in Public Universities in South-South, Nigeria. The study was guided by two research questions and two null hypotheses. The study adopted descriptive survey research design. The population of the study is eight hundred and seventy-nine final year students in public universities in South-South, Nigeria. The sample of size of 275 Business Education students, through Yaro Yamane formula was studied. Structured questionnaire containing 25 item entitled “Perceived influence of the use of e-learning technologies on the learning of Business Education courses” were used for data collection. The instrument was validated by three (3) experts. The Cronbach Alpha Reliability coefficient was 0.97 and 0.91. 275 copies of instrument were distributed; 250 copies were successfully retrieved from students. Mean (X) and Standard Deviation (SD) were used in analyzing the research questions. The null hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance using t-test statistical tool. The findings showed that the use of digital library, video conference and Google search engine have positive influence on the learning of Business Education in Public Universities in South-South, Nigeria. The hypotheses tested showed there is no significant difference between the opinion of students in Federal and State Universities perceived influence of digital library in learning of Business Education courses, there is no significant difference in the mean ratings of male and female Business Education students on the perceived influence of the use of video conferencing in learning of Business Education courses, Nigeria and there is no significant difference in the mean ratings of Business Education Students in Federal and State Universities on the perceived influence of the use of Google Search Engine in learning of business education courses in public universities based on school ownership. Based on the findings of the study, it was concluded that, the use of digital camera, digital library, video conferencing and Google search engine are believed to have influence on the learning of Business Education courses in public universities in South-South, Nigeria. The study recommended among others that management of public universities in South-South zone of Nigeria should endeavour to adequately provide e-learning technologies identified in order to sustain e-learning in learning of business education courses. The educational implication is that the e-learning technologies for teaching and learning of Business Education courses influence teaching and learning of Business Education courses. Training and re-training of lecturers in the utilization of e-learning technologies should be adopted, because it will improve lecturers’ skills in business education courses and also help students to learn better and faster in the classroom.
尼日利亚南南商业教育学生认为使用电子学习技术对商业教育课程学习的影响
进行这项研究是为了确定使用电子学习技术对尼日利亚南南公立大学商科教育课程学习的感知影响。本研究以两个研究问题和两个零假设为指导。本研究采用描述性调查研究设计。这项研究的对象是尼日利亚南南公立大学的879名最后一年的学生。采用Yaro Yamane公式对275名商科教育学生的样本规模进行了研究。数据收集使用了包含25个项目的结构化问卷,题为"使用电子学习技术对商科教育课程学习的感知影响"。仪器由三(3)位专家验证。Cronbach α信度系数分别为0.97和0.91。分发了文书275份;成功地从学生那里取回了250份。采用均数(X)和标准差(SD)分析研究问题。使用t检验统计工具在0.05显著性水平下检验原假设。研究结果表明,数字图书馆、视频会议和谷歌搜索引擎的使用对尼日利亚南南公立大学商科教育的学习产生了积极的影响。假设检验表明,联邦大学和州立大学学生对数字图书馆对商业教育课程学习的影响感知的看法没有显著差异,男性和女性商业教育学生对使用视频会议对商业教育课程学习的影响感知的平均评分没有显著差异。联邦大学和州立大学商科教育学生对基于学校所有权的公立大学使用谷歌搜索引擎学习商科教育课程的感知影响的平均评分没有显著差异。根据研究结果,得出结论认为数码相机、数字图书馆、视频会议和谷歌搜索引擎的使用对尼日利亚南南公立大学商科教育课程的学习产生了影响。该研究除其他外建议,尼日利亚南南区公立大学的管理部门应努力充分提供确定的电子学习技术,以便在商业教育课程的学习中维持电子学习。教育含义是指商务教育课程教学的电子学习技术对商务教育课程的教学产生影响。应该对讲师进行e-learning技术使用方面的培训和再培训,因为这将提高讲师在商业教育课程中的技能,也有助于学生在课堂上更好更快地学习。
