Islamic Religious Education Learning Innovation (PAI) Based on a Mini-Webinar

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has provided an illustration of the continuity of the world of education in the future through the help of technology. To create fun, active, creative and innovative learning, students' skills and expertise are needed in adapting to the use of technology, which inevitably has to be able to use online learning applications. The fact that online webinar applications existed before the COVID-19 pandemic occurred is one of the proofs that in the future, learning can be carried out even if not face-to-face. Video conferencing technology can be an opportunity for the future of education, for example educational institutions can conduct blended learning, or even full time online. To be able to achieve this, the learning participants must be familiar with the use of learning technology. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the factors that can support the use or adoption of learning technology. This study uses the Technology Acceptance Model as an antecedent which is a predictor of adoption of technology use. The results of the study show that all variables have a positive and significant influence on the adoption of the use of technology for madrasah aliyah students in the city of Medan.
