Application Of Electronic Problem-Based Learning (E-PBL) During the COVID-19 Pandemic in Entrepreneurial Attitude

Abstract

Purpose: The acceleration of the transformation of education and learning technology due to the COVID-19 pandemic has spawned various online learning program platforms to support and maintain the quality of graduates. The limitation of face-to-face meetings (offline) encourages many parties to develop models and applications of effective and efficient learning technology. One of them is implementing a learning model based on Electronic Problem Based Learning (E-PBL) in improving student's entrepreneurial attitudes in achieving learning competencies through web-based interactions between lecturers and students. Method: The research design uses a quantitative research approach with the use of E-PBL software on lecturers and lecturer students which aims to analyze the Electronic Problem Based Learning model by learning, learning motivation, and learning attitudes with a sample of 129 participants. Data was analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS 3.0 application. Findings: A significant influence was found of the application of the E-PBL learning model on variables like learning, learning motivation, and learning attitudes Implications for Research and Practice: The application of the E-PBL learning model can improve learning methods, learning motivation, and positive learning attitudes that are effective and efficient for students during the COVID-19 pandemic.
