Abstract

This study investigates the influence of self-efficacy and peer support on learning enthusiasm and digital competence in the context of online distance learning, specifically focusing on students at the Open University Graduate School. The research employing a quantitative method, conducted from October 2022 to January 2023. 68 students who are also working professionals across various fields were selected as respondents for the survey, through a purposive sampling technique. Data was processed by utilizing SEM-PLS. The results of the study demonstrate that self-efficacy does not have a significant impact on learning enthusiasm, but peer support does have a significant impact on learning enthusiasm. Self-efficacy, peer support, and learning enthusiasm do not cause significant changes in digital competency. This research has practical implications for the Open University. Considering that learning enthusiasm is positively and significantly influenced by peer support, the Open University can formulate learning programs that can encourage the formation of peer support for students to improve their performance and to enhance the digital learning experience.
