Abstract

Cloud computing is considered as a new innovation which essentially influences teaching and learning forms in educational sector. Utilizing this innovation not as it were upgrades the quality of teaching and learning, but too diminishes overhead consumption of instructive educate. In spite of the beneficial points of interest of cloud computing, in any case, its adoption is still distant from full potential, especially in university settings. However, there are not many studies on the adoption of cloud-based E-learning systems. Thus, this research is aimed to develop a theoretical research model for the adoption of cloud computing in universities of Malaysia. For this purpose, TAM model is used to represent the research framework. A survey was conducted among 265 cloud-based E-learning participants and analyzed by structural equation modeling (SEM). The findings indicate that the adoption of cloud-based E-learning is influenced by need, perceived usefulness, although inattentiveness is not significant to use intention to adopt cloud based e-learning.

Highlights

  • One of the fundamental foundations holding strong ties with business-related organizations, the government, is higher education [1, 2]

  • The dispersion of values reported through standard deviation indicates that the highest value shown was from innovativeness and the lowest value shown was from perceived usefulness

  • AVE to measures the level of variance captured by a construct versus the level due to measurement error, values above 0.7 are considered very good, whereas, the level of 0.5 is acceptable

Summary

Introduction

One of the fundamental foundations holding strong ties with business-related organizations, the government, is higher education [1, 2]. Due to lower enrolment rates and less physical presence of students in classes, various colleges and universities provide the option of distance learning for certain courses and sometimes even degree programs This takes place via online platforms, with many other different teaching models. One of the quickly ascending and novel topics in the field of IT is called cloud computing This sector of information technology has become extremely appealing towards various educational institutions since it possesses beneficial features including geographic distribution, cost-effectiveness in regard to automated systems as well as related open-source software. Towards knowledge enhancement and, definite and more efficient performance, e-learning employs technologies involving information, communication and the Internet Various applications, such as web-based learning, computer-based learning, virtual classrooms and digital collaboration, can be associated with e-learning [5]. Aside from that, another major issue in this regard is a shortage in platform design as well as management staff [7]
