The Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia has an impact on changes in policies and the learning process at Budi Luhur University (UBL). The complete online learning policy has been implemented since the 2nd semester of 2019/2020, which began in March 2020. Students and lecturers carry out teaching and learning activities through an e-learning system developed in 2005. Although it has been implemented for a long time, the level of acceptance has never been measured comprehensively. This research has a contribution in measuring the level of acceptance of the e-learning. In addition, before the Covid-19 pandemic, the use of the e-learning system was still partially implemented and only for a few courses. In this study, an analysis of the student acceptance of the UBL e-learning system was carried out by involving respondents and a more comprehensive acceptance model. The modeling used in this study refers to the Comprehensive Technology Acceptance Model (CTAM) with seven exogenous variables and five endogenous variables. Testing and analysis are based on variant-based structural equation models, namely Partial Least Square (PLS) using the SmartPLS application. The results show that nine main factors influence student acceptance of the e-learning system: system quality, content quality, information quality, accessibility, enjoyment, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and student attitudes towards applications and behavioral intention to use. This research is helpful for UBL and other educational institutions as material for developing a quality e-learning system accepted by its users.

The present study validated the general extended technology acceptance model for e-learning (GETAMEL) with the survey data from the English as a foreign language (EFL) online class during the novel coronavirus lockdown period. A total of 678 undergraduates participated in the survey. Structural equation modeling was employed to analyze the data. The results showed that the influence of perceived usefulness of students on their intentional behavior to use the online learning system was not mediated by their attitude, indicating a very limited role of attitude toward technology in the model. Enjoyment and self-efficacy had no significant effects on the internal constructs, raising theoretical concerns on the applicability of this general model into specific contexts. In addition, we found that experience might be a moderator rather than an antecedent of the internal constructs in the model.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui faktor yang memengaruhi penggunaan elearning.umn.ac.id pada mahasiswa melalui kerangka Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Terdapat lima konstruk asli dari TAM yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini, antara lain persepsi kegunaan (PU), persepsi kemudahan penggunaan (PEOU), sikap terhadap penggunaan (ATU), minat perilaku (BI), dan penggunaan senyatanya (AU). Terdapat pula tiga konstruk eksternal yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini, antara lain keyakinan individu (SE), aksesibilitas sistem (SA), dan kualitas sistem (SQ). Hasil yang didapatkan pada penelitian ini menemukan tingkat penerimaan dan penggunaan e-learning UMN pada mahasiswa dengan menggunakan faktor internal (perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitude toward using, behavioral intention, actual use) dan faktor eksternal (self-efficacy, system accessibility, system quality) TAM sudah tinggi. Perceived ease of use tidak memiliki hubungan apapun terhadap faktor-faktor yang lain, sehingga apabila faktor perceived ease of use ditingkatkan maka tidak akan terjadi pengaruh apapun terhadap actual use, meskipun didukung dengan faktor system accessibility. Adapun pengaruh positif signifikan yang dimiliki semua pasangan variabel memiliki sifat pengurangan nilai, sehingga jika sebuah faktor independen memiliki peningkatan skor sebanyak n, maka faktor dependen yang memiliki hubungan terhadap variabel independen tersebut ikut mengalami peningkatan skor namun mengalami penurunan nilai dengan besar n sejumlah dengan nilai koefisien total pengaruh yang dimilikinya.

In recent years information and communication technologies (ICT) have played a significant role in all aspects of modern society and have impacted socioeconomic development in sectors such as education, administration, business, medical care and agriculture. The benefits of such technologies in agriculture can be appreciated only if farmers use them. In order to predict and evaluate the adoption of these new technological tools, the technology acceptance model (TAM) can be a valid aid. This paper identifies the most commonly used external variables in e-learning, agriculture and virtual reality applications for further validation in an e-learning tool designed for EU farmers and agricultural entrepreneurs. Starting from a literature review of the technology acceptance model, the analysis based on Quality Function Deployment (QFD) shows that computer self-efficacy, individual innovativeness, computer anxiety, perceived enjoyment, social norm, content and system quality, experience and facilitating conditions are the most common determinants addressing technology acceptance. Furthermore, findings evidenced that the external variables have a different impact on the two main beliefs of the TAM Model, Perceived Usefulness (PU) and Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU). This study is expected to bring theoretical support for academics when determining the variables to be included in TAM extensions.

The objective of the study is to find out the factors which affect the acceptance of E-learning among students and how the students’ purpose of using E-learning is determined by these factors. The research was based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). The researcher developed a questionnaire to gather data from a sample of 366 university students who actively used the E-learning system. According to the results of the study, subjective norms, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, enjoyment, and accessibility” are the vital predictors behind the intention of students for using E-learning systems. This indicates that extended TAM is applicable in the UAE. The results show that policymakers and education developers should take E-learning system seriously since it can be opted not just as a technological solution but also as a learning platform for students belonging to a distant area. The results present practical implications for education developers, policymakers and practitioners in devising useful plans to implement E-learning systems.
