Cloud Computing Adoption in the Education Sector

The rapid advancement of technology has made the use of cloud computing increasingly popular in various sectors, especially in education. This study uses the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to examine the factors that influence the adoption of cloud computing technology in the education sector. This research uses a quantitative approach by distributing online questionnaires to 100 students aged 16 to 22 years in the Jakarta, Tangerang, Depok and Bekasi areas. The main variables studied in this study include perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, perceived risk, user satisfaction, and intention to use. The collected data were analyzed using PLS-SEM method with SmartPLS. The results showed that perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use have a positive effect on user satisfaction and intention to use cloud computing services, while perceived risk has no significant effect directly. This study provides insights for educational institutions and cloud computing service providers in designing effective implementation strategies to support digital learning in the future.
