Abstract

E-Learning is the use of telecommunication technology to deliver information for education and training and it is emerging as the new paradigm of modern education. Because of the increasing amount of technology integration in the learning environment, more and more studies focus on examining ‘‘how people learn with technology’’ This study developed an integrated model with six dimensions: learners, instructors, courses, technology, design, and environment. The results revealed that learner computer anxiety, instructor attitude toward e-Learning, e-Learning course flexibility, e-Learning course quality, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and diversity in assessments are the critical factors affecting learners’ perceived satisfaction. Discussion is given related to these findings and the implications to e-learning in life long learning and also future research.
