Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic, a public health crisis of worldwide importance, announced by the World Health Organization (WHO) in January 2020 as an outbreak, has made distance education through the E-learning system an urgent and irreplaceable requirement. The study assessed factors affecting students’ online learning outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic through interviews with 404 students who were subjects of the survey using the convenience sampling method via questionnaires. The study utilized the reliability analysis through Cronbach’s Alpha and the Bayesian Exploratory Factor Analysis (BEFA). The evaluation results of the research scales showed that 28 observed variables were used to measure 7 research concepts. Test results of the hypotheses showed that students’ online learning outcomes are affected by 6 factors in the descending order, respectively, learner characteristics, perceived usefulness, course content, course design, ease of use, and faculty capacity.

Advances in modern computer and network technology have driven the development of distance education [1]
Education Research International due to dependence on Internet quality, and technological equipment not meeting demand. erefore, this study aimed to explore factors that affect students’ outcomes during the online learning process

Summary
Advances in modern computer and network technology have driven the development of distance education [1]. Despite the current pandemic that is hindering education worldwide, online learning based on Internet services has become available and universal, facilitating the learning system. The effectiveness of E-learning and students’ online learning outcomes become a matter of concern for universities in particular and the society in general. There has been a significant increase in research on factors affecting students’ online learning outcomes. Online technology is seen as an active element of both students’ and lecturers’ learning systems. Prioritizing distance education primarily through online systems is a “model change in education.” e jammed education wheel causes certain instabilities regarding learners’ future, emphasizing the importance of technology in our lives. Online learning is a useful tool to overcome the challenges of the pandemic crisis in particular and other difficulties in general [3]. Most learners are not interested in online learning due to limited interactions, unstable sound and visual quality
