Abstract

PurposeInternet technology in the classroom has become the primary demand of every student in this era. Moreover, information and communication technology aids students' learning involvement and progress by providing learning assistance by improved instructor, pupil and interactions with fellows. Using an asynchronous Web-based learning environment (WBLE) is one way to manage such assistance. This study aims to identify to what extent the asynchronous WBLE affects students' interest and motivation in learning mathematics at Shah Abdul Latif University (SALU), Khairpur.Design/methodology/approachThis research uses a survey research design under a quantitative approach. Therefore, data are collected through a questionnaire about students' motivation and interest in learning mathematics via asynchronous WBLE. Data are collected from the students of four departments (BEd, BSCS, BBA, BS Mathematics) of SALU, Khairpur. However, as the nature of this study is quantitative, both descriptive and inferential statistics were used in the results and discussion, and a one-way ANOVA test was used. The Cronbach alpha test was also used to assess the item's reliability, and the items were found to be acceptable.FindingsThe findings of this study discovered that asynchronous WBLE has a significant impact on students' intrinsic, extrinsic and interest levels. The results indicated that there is a positive impact based on the level of mean range of asynchronous WBLE on mathematics students.Research limitations/implicationsThe outcome of this study can be used as a guideline to understand and further plan or develop educational interventions based on the level of motivation and interest of mathematics students towards asynchronous WBLE in other contexts.Originality/valueThis is first study of its nature in the context of Khairpur district of Sindh that emphasizes on the motivation and interest of mathematics students toward asynchronous WBLE.

异步网络学习环境对学生数学兴趣和动机的影响:定量研究
目的互联网技术在课堂上已经成为这个时代每个学生的首要需求。此外,信息和通信技术通过改进教师、学生和与同伴的互动提供学习帮助,帮助学生参与学习并取得进步。使用异步的基于Web的学习环境(WBLE)是管理这种帮助的一种方法。本研究旨在确定异步WBLE在多大程度上影响Khairpur Shah Abdul Latif大学(SALU)学生学习数学的兴趣和动机。设计/方法/方法本研究采用定量方法下的调查研究设计。因此,通过问卷调查收集数据,了解学生通过异步WBLE学习数学的动机和兴趣。数据收集自哈尔布尔SALU四个系(BEd、BSCS、BBA、BS数学)的学生。然而,由于本研究的性质是定量的,在结果和讨论中使用了描述性和推断统计学,并使用了单向方差分析检验。Cronbachα检验也用于评估项目的可靠性,发现这些项目是可接受的。研究发现,异步WBLE对学生的内在、外在和兴趣水平有显著影响。结果表明,基于异步WBLE的平均范围水平对数学学生有积极影响。研究局限性/含义本研究的结果可作为指导,根据数学学生在其他情况下对异步WBLE的动机和兴趣水平,理解并进一步规划或制定教育干预措施。独创性/价值这是第一次在信德省哈尔布尔区的背景下对其性质进行研究,强调数学学生对异步WBLE的动机和兴趣。
