Summary/Abstract: This study investigates the effectiveness of Virtual Programming Lab (VPL) in improving fundamental programming skills among undergraduate students. Adopting a mixed-methods approach, the research combines quantitative assessments with qualitative interviews and observations to provide a comprehensive evaluation. Data collection includes surveys, interviews, and classroom observations. Quantitative analysis utilizes Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), while qualitative data undergo thematic analysis. Ethical considerations are adhered to throughout the study. The integration of VPL into the educational landscape enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of programming learning and assessment processes. The findings contribute insights into the potential of VPL as an innovative tool for programming education.
