The Effect of Gender toward Student Attitude on Using Interactive Multimedia IPAD

Abstract

This paper aims to explore the studies on the application of technology in learning, especially during this pandemic. One of the most popular technologies in the world today is the use of the iPad in learning. However, it is unfortunate that until now there has been little research related to it. Therefore, this research was conducted with the aim of knowing students' attitudes towards the use of interactive multimedia iPad in Islamic religious education (Pendidikan Agama Islam or PAI) learning - how gender influences students' attitudes and whether there are differences in student attitudes based on gender. This research employs a quantitative method. An online survey using google forms was distributed with the help of the homeroom teacher to a research sample of 135 secondary school students. The results show several important findings: 1) Students’ positive attitudes towards the use of interactive multimedia iPad in PAI learning. 2) There is no significant effect of gender on students' attitudes towards the use of interactive multimedia iPad, and 3) there is no significant difference between males and females regarding their attitudes towards the use of interactive multimedia iPad.
