International students’ gender impact to use mobile learning in tertiary education

Abstract

This study aims to design a model on mobile learning used by international students in tertiary education. It has used a survey questionnaire distributed through the LimeSurvey. A total of 12 international students from a tertiary education (6 female students and 6 male students) participated in Canada. The results revealed that male students got higher impact to the performance expectancy (PE), social factors (SF), and facilitating condition (FC) but on the other hand, female students got an impact on PE and FC. Furthermore, female students got a significant impact on PE and SF on behavioral intention (BI). Gender is having an impact on EE and FC. Finally, PE and SF have an impact on the BI to use mobile learning in tertiary education. These findings will help practitioners, educators, policymakers to implement mobile learning in tertiary education for international students in Canada and abroad.
