INFLUENCE OF TECHNOLOGY-ENHANCED SELF-REGULATED LEARNING ON UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS’ ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE IN KWARA STATE, NIGERIA

The rapid integration of technology in higher education has redefined the teaching and learning process, with a strong influence on students’ learning and performance. This study investigated the influence of Technology-Enhanced Self Regulated Learning (TESRL) on the academic performance of undergraduates students in universities in Kwara State, Nigeria and specifically ascertained the technology-enhanced self-regulated learning platforms accessible by undergraduate students, determined the extent of use of the platforms, investigated the influence of technology-enhanced self-regulated learning on undergraduate students’ academic performance and found out the challenges faced by undergraduate students using the platforms for learning. A descriptive survey research design was adopted for this study and a simple random sampling technique was used to select a sample of students from the two purposively selected universities and a researcher-designed questionnaire was used to elicit responses from the students. The findings of the study revealed that the frequency of utilization of the TESRL platforms among undergraduate students was low as a majority of the items have low percentages. The findings also showed that the influence of technology-enhanced self-regulated learning on undergraduate students’ academic performance is positive as all items on influence have mean scores that are above the mid-mean score of 2.50. The result of hypothesis one indicated that there is no significant difference in the influence of TESRL on the undergraduate students’ academic performance based on gender. Hypothesis two also indicated that there is no significant difference in the influence of technology-enhanced selfregulated on the undergraduate students’ academic performance based on institution proprietorship.
