Psychological Analysis of Effectiveness of Google Classroom in Acceptance Model

Abstract

This research investigates the effectiveness of Google Classroom in enhancing students' learning using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). A quantitative approach utilizing route analysis was employed, with a sample of 150 college students. Data was collected through online surveys utilizing a Likert scale, and the data analysis was conducted using SmartPLS Version 3.0. The results demonstrate that the utilization of Google Classroom, in conjunction with TAM, provides students with increased autonomy in their learning process. The platform facilitates self-improvement among TAM-adhering professors through independent research, contributing to knowledge development, effective learning process management, and evaluation of its effectiveness. Integrating Google Classroom based on the TAM framework has the potential to enhance learning effectiveness and provide better academic support in higher education institutions. This study highlights the importance of integrating technology effectively in the education sector, particularly in promoting self-directed learning and improving the overall learning process. The findings suggest that the utilization of Google Classroom, in alignment with the TAM framework, can significantly enhance students' learning experiences. Therefore, educational institutions and educators should consider incorporating Google Classroom and similar technology-based platforms into their teaching methodologies to promote effective learning outcomes.
