Impact of Educational Technology on Students' Performance

The current study is focused on the impact of educational technology on students' performance in the secondary stage. Selection of this stage is attributed to fact that it is impossible to focus on all the stages as there are about 130 thousand students in all stages which is a very big population. Also, students of universities who are about 31 can provide clearer and more accurate data. The sample was selected randomly with the electronic sample calculator showing that the minimum number is 380 individuals. The questionnaire was circulated electronically via university administration in the four governorates. The received responses were 342 indicating that the return rate is 90%. The researchers made use of the descriptive statistical analysis to answer the research questions. The data analysis processes guided the researchers to find out that universities effectively apply technology-based education both in terms of perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness as indicated by the mean scores. It was found out that there is a significant impact of technology-based education on students' performance. Further to that it was found out that technology-based education in terms of ease of use and in terms of perceived usefulness significantly impact students' performance in the Ahlia University.
