Abstract

This research uses the Motivation, Engagement, and Technology Use Experience (METUX) model to examine the impact of using digital learning tools on student engagement, academic performance, and well-being in higher education. Despite their expanded use in educational settings, there is little understanding of how the design and operation of these tools affect learners' psychological needs, motivation, and learning outcomes. This research seeks to explore the interaction between students' needs for autonomy and efficacy and digital learning tools, emphasizing the principles of Self-Determination Theory (SDT). The research used descriptive and inferential statistical analyzes on a sample of 50 participants to investigate the effects of gender and frequency of use of digital learning tools on various psychological characteristics, such as intrinsic motivation, engagement, and perceived competence. The results showed that participants had more intrinsic drive and perceived competence. Furthermore, the importance of sustained digital engagement in improving educational and psychological outcomes was highlighted by the significantly higher scores of users who frequently used digital learning tools on flourishing, enjoyment, interest, and relevance. The findings of the study promote the regular use of digital technology to enhance student engagement and well-being. This research provides important empirical evidence, offering insights to help educators, technology designers, and education policy makers improve digital learning tools to better manage student needs, enhance motivation, promote academic success , but also the overall well-being of students in higher education.
