Abstract

Background. Learning in this century has experienced a significant transformation, especially with the emergence of mobile learning technology. In this context, learning Mathematics becomes an important focus because it is often considered a challenging subject for some students. The problem that arises is the lack of student involvement and difficulty in understanding Mathematics concepts. Purpose. This research aims to explore the effectiveness of mobile learning in increasing student involvement in Mathematics learning. By using a quantitative approach through a survey model, this research aims to collect data from mathematics education teachers and students to understand the impact of mobile learning in a broader learning context. Method. This research will adopt a quantitative approach using a survey model. Researchers will compile a questionnaire in the form of a questionnaire with carefully prepared answer choices, and then collect it via the Google Form platform. The research subjects consisted of 30 respondents who were mathematics education teachers and students, who were chosen randomly from the existing population. Results. The results of the questionnaire analysis showed that the use of mobile applications in mathematics learning had a positive impact on student engagement, learning motivation, and sense of trust. themselves in solving mathematical problems. However, there is still room to improve interaction between students and teachers through mobile applications.   Conclusion. Overall, this research shows that mobile learning has great potential in improving Mathematics learning by increasing student engagement and strengthening interactions between students and teachers. However, further adjustments and developments need to be made to mobile applications to maximize their potential in a broader learning context.

Abstract

Background. The rapid evolution of digital technologies has transformed educational practices, with information systems playing a critical role in enhancing collaborative learning in higher education. Collaborative learning, which emphasizes peer-to-peer interaction and shared knowledge construction, fosters critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork skills essential for the 21st-century workforce. Despite its potential, the implementation of effective collaborative learning strategies often faces challenges such as insufficient technological support and lack of engagement. Purpose. This study investigates the role of information systems in facilitating collaborative learning, focusing on their impact on student engagement, knowledge sharing, and learning outcomes. Method. A mixed-method approach was employed, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with 200 undergraduate students and 20 faculty members across three higher education institutions. Data were collected on the use of information systems such as learning management platforms, virtual collaboration tools, and online forums. Key performance indicators included student engagement, participation rates, and academic performance. Results. The findings revealed that information systems significantly enhance collaborative learning by providing a centralized platform for communication, resource sharing, and real-time interaction. Students reported a 30% increase in engagement and a 25% improvement in teamwork efficiency when using digital collaboration tools. Faculty members highlighted the ease of monitoring and supporting group activities through analytics and reporting features. Challenges such as digital literacy gaps and technical issues were also identified. Conclusion. The study concludes that information systems are pivotal in enabling effective collaborative learning by fostering connectivity, engagement, and accountability among students. Addressing challenges related to accessibility and technical support will maximize their potential in higher education.
