Mobile applications have been increasing in the modern life and mobile technology has been improved day by day. Accordingly, educators also have utilized these technologies in the educational field. The unique capabilities of mobile technologies can support a variety of studying experiences and give learners new opportunities both inside and outside the classroom. Besides, the institutional repository is essential for learners in the university, which requires convenient and fast access anytime, anywhere. Therefore, we proposed to build a mobile web library application (MWLA) for the university library with a focus on its institutional repository to meet learners’ needs. Using progressive web app (PWA) and search service Algolia, MWLA can provide learners striking digital collections with reliable information, and a powerful search tool. Learners can access and search learning resources of their university quickly and seamlessly by mobile devices with any platforms.
Performing tasks were used to evaluate the effectiveness of MWLA. The experiments, including the pilot test and main experiment, were conducted for around two months. In the main experiment, eighty-five undergraduate students were divided into two groups, experimental group (EG) and control group (CG), which were asked to conduct searching tasks with MWLA and traditional Library Website (LW), respectively. We also deeply investigated learning behaviors and acceptance of experimental group toward our proposed system MWLA in terms of usefulness, ease of use, mobility, accessibility, satisfaction, and use intention.
The research results indicated that experimental group using MWLA were superior to control group using LW in both performing tasks and post-test in all collections of the institutional repository. MWLA significantly improved learning achievement of experimental group by using the powerful search bar. Additionally, in experimental group, it was also found that learners who see more preview and fulltext to get information can get good results. Besides, the use of keywords is also important, learners who used suitable keywords and proper syntax can get effective searching results quickly. It is also shown that MWLA is easy to use, and useful for enriching their searching skills. More importantly, the mobility and ready accessibility significantly motivated them to learn with MWLA without any temporal and spatial constraints. Therefore, they perceived MWLA can meet their expectations, and they would like to continue using MWLA to find useful institutional repository for their study. Therefore, it is suggested to use MWLA widely for the library service in universities because it can help learners in their study. |
