Summary: | Mobile learning in education has been a popular topic of discussion in education. This study aims to identify the use of mobile applications (apps) for learning purposes from the Universiti Teknologi Mara music students' perspective and to determine the learners' characteristics in learning music and practice when using mobile learning apps. This study is using a quantitative method by using a questionnaire. The questionnaire was sent via a WhatsApp link to a representative from each of the four undergraduate departments at the UiTM Faculty of Music. The four representatives then forwarded the questionnaire link to all their peers in their peers in their respective departments. All 61 respondents in this study received the link and voluntarily filled up the questionnaire as requested. The results of this study are shown in tabular form with the number of frequencies and percentages. This study concluded that music students use mobile learning applications in their learning music as a learning and practice tool aid to help their learning performance. The study also found that performance expectancy is the most substantial influence for the UiTM music student to use mobile apps to improve their music learning and practice. At the same time, the personal innovativeness did not give a positive result on the UiTM music students' willingness to try new mobile apps. This study was a first step towards looking into students' learner characteristics using mobile apps in their learning music. |
