Abstract
ABSTRACT Studies exploring the determinants of intention to use videoconferencing tools among maritime students received little attention. Schools and learning communities utilizing such technologies must be cognizant of the factors that influence students’ intention to continue using these platforms for learning to fully exploit its value and benefits for education. This study determined the factors associated with the intention to use videoconferencing tools in online distance education among maritime students. A cross-sectional study was conducted using the administration of an online survey tool among 234 male students in two Philippine maritime schools. Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that attitude towards videoconferencing, perceived class engagement in virtual conferences, perceived ease of use, and perceived usefulness of videoconference technology predicted videoconferencing utilization intention among maritime students. Videoconferencing technology remains a valuable platform that facilitates and supports educational activities during the COVID-19 outbreak.
