Eksplorasi Penerimaan Teknologi untuk Pembelajaran Digital dalam Pendidikan Islam: Dampak Perspektif Agama Terhadap TIK

Exploring Technology Acceptance for Digital Learning in Islamic Education: The Impact of Religious Perspectives on ICT

Abstract

This study explores the acceptance of information and communication technology (ICT) in Islamic education by considering the influence of religious perspectives on user attitudes. With the growing digitalization in the education sector, Islamic educational institutions face the challenge of adopting technology while maintaining religious values. Therefore, an in-depth study is needed to examine the factors influencing technology acceptance in Islamic education environments. The objective of this study is to identify key factors that play a crucial role in ICT acceptance, particularly from the perspective of alignment with religious values. This research employs a quantitative approach through a questionnaire survey and is analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) method. The findings indicate that ease of use, perceived benefits, and the compatibility of technology with Islamic values are significant factors affecting technology acceptance, with religious value alignment being the dominant factor. These findings have implications for Islamic educational institutions in formulating policies that consider religious aspects in technology adoption and for educational technology developers in creating solutions that align with the needs of Islamic education. The limitations of this study include a limited sample size and a quantitative approach that may not fully capture the nuances of religious perspectives. Future research is recommended to incorporate qualitative methods and a broader population to enrich the findings and enhance the practical relevance of this study.
