Acceptance on Using Microsoft Teams in Learning the English Language amongst Undergraduate Students

Abstract

This paper examines the acceptance on Using Microsoft Teams in Learning the English Language amongst Undergraduate Students at Universiti Teknologi MARA, Seremban Campus, based on the principles of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). This is due to the shifting mode of teaching and learning from physical classes to online platforms during the pandemic period since March 2020. A 5-point Likert scale survey questionnaire was used to collect the quantitative data from the respective respondents. A questionnaire was used as the instrument to collect the data, which was developed using Google Forms. The sample of the study was obtained through purposive sampling. The sample consisted of 85 students from the Faculty of Administrative Science and Policy Studies. The data were then analysed by using descriptive statistics, which were the percentages, and the results were presented in charts provided by Google Forms. The results indicate that students positively accepted the use of Microsoft Teams, which is also known as a popular platform for e-learning purposes, especially to cater to English language subjects in learning the English language.
