Abstract

This study explores students’ perceptions of using eLearning technologies at SMAN 2 Tanjungpinang, aiming to understand the types of digital tools students use, their proficiency levels, and their attitudes toward integrating technology into learning. Using a quantitative descriptive method, data were gathered through a structured questionnaire distributed to 45 students. The survey focused on their use of devices, applications, and software related to eLearning, assessing both familiarity and confidence. Results indicate that while students generally view eLearning technologies positively—especially those that are user-friendly and accessible—their digital proficiency varies widely depending on the tool. Smartphones emerged as the most confidently used device, with 66.7% of students identifying as advanced users, likely due to their daily integration and ease of use. In contrast, only 6.8% reported advanced skills in using computers, and just 9.1% for tablets, suggesting a need for greater focus on these essential academic tools. Similarly, students demonstrated strong skills in general digital tools like search engines, but much lower proficiency with educational apps such as Duolingo and quizziz, where 62.2% were beginners. While platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Google saw high user confidence, engagement with formal educational tools and productivity platforms was limited. These findings highlight a clear gap in academic digital literacy and emphasize the need for targeted digital education initiatives to better prepare students for technology-integrated learning environments.

Abstract

The study aimed to examine the influence of English communication skills on career readiness among hospitality management students, as well as the moderating role of Project-Based Learning (PJBL) in this relationship. The population in this study consisted of higher education students at Universitas Negeri Padang. Data collected from 108 valid respondents were analyzed using statistical tests, including correlation and moderation regression analysis. The findings revealed that English communication skills positively and significantly influence career readiness among hospitality management students. Furthermore, the implementation of Project-Based Learning (PJBL) was found to have a significant moderating effect on the relationship between English communication skill and career readiness. However, the interaction effect was negative, indicating that a higher level of Project-Based Learning (PJBL) implementation slightly weakens the direct influence of English communication skills on students’ career readiness. These findings provide several important theoretical and practical implications for enhancing students’ career readiness in higher education, emphasizing the integration of communicative competence and experiential learning through Project-Based Learning (PJBL).
