Abstract

The emergence of m-learning is perceived to support the success of the 2015-2025 Malaysia Education Blueprint. Access to education through mobile devices is not just a requirement today but has become a necessity for students and educators to achieve. Therefore, this study aims to develop and validate eight constructs to observe the behavior of acceptance and the use of mobile learning application among students in public universities. This study involved 120 respondents amongst undergraduate students in Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, Malaysia who were randomly selected from the study population. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), is done to measure the suitability of each item and validate the Acceptance and Use of Mobile Learning Application Instrument among Bachelor Degree students. EFA results find that all load factor values exceed 0.5; all items are accepted and no items are dropped. Based on the analysis conducted, it can be concluded that the instruments used have high degree of validity and reliability to determine the acceptance and use of Mobile Learning Application among students.
