Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors that influence the use of e-learning among students in higher education during the Corona Virus disease, during the 2019 season (COVID-19). A poll of 395 students from the student’s university was used to conduct the research. The study’s theoretical foundation was an expanded Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), which included task-technology fit and students’ engagement, as well as external elements such as experience (EXP), technology anxiety (TEA), and facilitating conditions (FC). The suggested model was tested and evaluated using SEM-PLS. The investigation demonstrated that the suggested TAM-based scale effectively describes factors impacting students’ use of E-learning during the pandemic. According to the findings, students’ engagement (SEN), EXP, TEA, and FC have a favorable impact on task–technology fit (TTF) and perceived ease of use (PEOU), resulting in a good impact on TTF and usage of an e-learning system for educational sustainability (EA). Finally, the TTF fit and convenience of use of eLearning in education have a positive impact on the behavioral intention to use an e-learning system for educational sustainability and the adoption process. As a result, higher education institutions should use eLearning as a sustainability learning strategy.
Highlights
E-learning is a learning approach that is based on formalized instruction, using electronic resources
The highest loading was achieved by perceived ease of use (PEOU), PEOU_4 (0.872), while the lowest loading referred to behavioral intention to use eLearning, BI_2 (0.704)
Experience, facilitating conditions, students’ engagement, technology anxiety, and perceived usefulness all have a substantial influence on task-technology fit, and perceived ease of use
Summary
E-learning is a learning approach that is based on formalized instruction, using electronic resources. While education can take place in or out of the classroom, e-learning is primarily dependent on the use of computers and the Internet. The development of internet-based educational tools, such as virtual learning environments (VLE) and the increase in information and communication technology (ICT), have improved electronic learning (e-Learning) platforms [1]. Educational institutions around the world are attempting to incorporate e-learning into old sequence delivery structures and establish combined learning environments [2]. This technique has added value for students and institutions by developing the excellence of the product [3,4]. Competent and motivated learners, and well-organized students are all required to achieve the goal [5,6]
