ABSTRACT
This research investigated the level of agreement among senior
high school faculty employees regarding the factors that influence their
online purchases. Online shopping is the process of purchasing goods
through the Internet with the use of technological gadgets which took
its peak during the Coronavirus pandemic. Even so, consumers
continue to show a noticeable preference for online shopping even
after the pandemic. The study employs a quantitative research design,
utilizing an adapted modified questionnaire distributed to a sample
population of senior high school faculty. The printed questionnaire
consists of statements connected to factors in terms of perceived
usefulness and perceived ease of use in alignment with the research
model, The Technology Acceptance Model of Davis, 1989. The
respondents rate their level of agreement or disagreement with each
statement on a Four-Point Likert scale. The collected data from the
survey was analyzed using descriptive statistics. This research will
provide significant insights into the existing literature of educational
institutions, online vendors, and other stakeholders by tailoring their
offerings and services to the unique needs and preferences of
customers to improve overall satisfaction and efficiency, which
ultimately improve online shopping experiences.
