摘要:Learning Introductory Programming has always been challenging to computer science and informationtechnology undergraduates and such problems, most notably comes from the lack of metacognitiveawareness. Other important factors are multiple intelligences, gender, and motivation in using learningtools can also have a huge impact on learning the subject matter. A survey study was carried out with theaim to investigate the relationship among metacognitive awareness, gender and multiple intelligencestowards perceived motivation of the students in learning using multimedia tools. 103 fresh undergraduateswere recruited to participate in the survey. The data analysed using Pearson correlation and multiplelinear regression analysis. The result showed that the correlation between metacognitive awareness andmotivation in using multimedia tools was significant, positive, and moderately strong. These findingsuggest that students with higher metacognitive awareness will be highly motivated in using multimediatools compared to those with lower metacognitive awareness.
