Abstract

This research was conducted to determine the effect of performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions on the use of a learning management system (LMS). The population in this study is students using the LMS. The research data were tested for validity, reliability tests, descriptive statistics, and structural equation model tests. Hypothesis testing was carried out with a variable model from the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT). The hypothesis test results show that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence and facilitating conditions have a positive effect on the use of LMS. The conclusion of this study is that by understanding the factors that influence the acceptance and use of LMS based on UTAUT theory, educational institutions can design more effective strategies for introducing and adopting LMS, as well as providing the necessary support to LMS users so they can use it optimally.
