Abstract
The ERP industry in Taiwan has had over 10 years of implementation experience; however, not every enterprise can successfully implement ERP systems. Many small and medium-sized enterprises face key challenges, including higher costs, data security concerns, lengthy implementation processes, and resistance to ERP-related modifications. Employees or developers require significant time and skilled labor to maintain the system, and employees must quickly familiarize themselves with the software and appropriately use it in their daily work. Whether employees can operate the software correctly is a crucial issue for the success of ERP implementation because not every employee in the department has an information background, which can create pressure on employees during operation. Despite the urgent demand for ERP talent in today’s businesses and the strict requirements placed on them, students’ attention to ERP is far less than that of enterprises. The reason may lie in the traditional ERP teaching methods, which often rely on programming skills. For students who do not have coding abilities but want to operate the software, the learning pressure increases. With the emergence of low-code and no-code development platforms, students have more choices and can more easily participate in learning ERP systems.
Therefore, this study conducted quasi-experimental research based on different application software teaching methods. Coupled with pre-test and post-test questionnaires, a learning motivation scale, and a learning satisfaction questionnaire, a software course of three hours per week for a total of six hours over two weeks was conducted with 48 students from a university. Descriptive and inferential statistical data analysis was conducted using SPSS statistical software to understand the differences in students’ learning outcomes after receiving programming development tool teaching and template software development tool teaching.
