Abstract

In the Malaysia Education Blueprint or PPPM 2013-2025, Frog VLE Application is a new application introduced by the Ministry of Education Malaysia as a new approach to education at all schools. Therefore, this study is conducted to identify whether there is a significant correlation between the advantages, compatibility, complexity and observation of Roger's Diffusion of Innovation theory with the perceived usefulness of Frog VLE and the perceived ease of use of Frog VLE based on TAM Model in teaching and learning. Respondents were comprised of 30 Form 5 Science students and 30 Form 5 Arts students from a secondary school in Tangkak District. The research instrument used was a questionnaire consisting of 24 questions related to the relationship between DOI Roger theory and TAM model on the application of Frog VLE. The data were analysed quantitatively using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS Version 20.0) which involved the use of descriptive, and Pearson's correlation methods. The findings showed that the significant correlation between DOI Roger theory and TAM model on the application of Frog VLE application was at moderate level.
