Abstract

The outbreak of COVID-19 has brought significant changes to the learning process, with online learning becoming increasingly prominent in education. This shift towards digital education presents new challenges and opportunities to better understand the factors that drive motivation and engagement in online learning environments. This study aims to explore learners’ perceptions of social support, expectancy, and value with online learning. A quantitative survey was conducted to investigate the relationship between social support, expectancy, and value in online learning motivation. The instrument for this study was adapted from Fowler (2018). The survey comprises four sections: Demographic Profiles, Expectancy, Value, and Social Support. The Demographic Profiles section includes four items, while the Expectancy and Social Support sections each contain 12 items, and the Value section has 14 items, totalling 38 items across Value, Expectancy, and Social Support. A purposive sampling method was employed, selecting 143 undergraduate students from the Faculty of Computer and School of Education at a public university in Malaysia to complete the survey, which was administered online via Google Forms. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics via IBM SPSS version 28. The findings revealed a strong relationship between social support, expectancy and value in influencing online learning motivation. A positive correlation was observed among these factors. expectancy, value and social support was also observed. This paper also discusses educational implications and potential areas for future research based on the findings.
