BACKGROUND: In the last few months, e-learning witnessed a considerable demand due to the Covid-19 pandemic that made it the pragmatic solution for all Higher Education Institutions (HEI). Currently, all public and private universities relying on technology to make education continues with few interruptions. The migration of HEI into the virtual education model experienced several challenges in delivering rich education content to educators and learners. OBJECTIVE: Critical Success Factors (CSFs) enabled many universities to transform efficiently into the virtual environment. Before this transition, universities should carefully consider the key challenges and the CSFs to achieve successful migration to the virtual environment. E-learning is not a substitute anymore, it is gradually becoming a de-facto technology transformation in the current exceptional situation. This paradigm shift contributes to the success of education continuity in higher education settings. METHODOLOGY: A survey instrument was distributed to 500 students effectively using e-learning systems. Out of which only 330 were completed and used in the analysis which determined 66%as the overall response rate. RESULTS: The results of the study indicate a positive and significant relationship between the 13 CSFs and the e-learning systems usage, and that also indicates a notable impact of the CSFs on the e-learning systems usage. CONCLUSION: The outcome of this research identifies the top 13 CSFs that contribute to delivering successful e-learning systems usage. The top 13 CSFs are positively and significantly correlated with e-learning systems usage.

The progression of digital technologies and eruption of web incorporation into education proffers a novel trend for higher education institutions to establish web-based environments for teaching and learning. E-learning has become an imperative means for establishing the innovative learning environment for Higher Education in the digital age by offering new flexible learning methods. E-learning is promptly occurring as educational means in Pakistan as in the other global areas, hence utilizing web technologies for the provision of learning in higher education institutions which illustrate the sample acceptance of E-learning system in Pakistani higher education. For establishing E-learning systems, the higher education institutions are required to take broader initiatives for technological infrastructure at higher education institutions. However, a number of factors need serious consideration while designing a successful E-learning framework. The current study aims to determine the CSF (critical success factors) for designing E-learning framework for HEIs (higher education institutions) of Pakistan. Eight studies, already carried out by different researchers providing factors of E-learning framework in varied contexts, were systematically reviewed for deriving critical success factors for E-learning design for higher education institutions of Pakistan. This paper presents an analysis of factors which impact the designing of successful E-learning framework/structure in higher education. Based upon the emphasis in greater chunks of the literature resources, five main classes of factors were considered to be critical by the authors for the successful design of E-learning framework. Conclusively, the five factors i.e. pedagogical factors, technological factors, institutional factors, Design factors and behavioral factors were derived as critical for an effective design of E-learning system. These critical success factors are the main areas of activity that must receive constant and careful attention from the management of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) while planning to design E-learning framework for their institution.

This study aims to investigate Malaysia’s Institutes of Teacher Education (ITE) students’ knowledge on sustainability toward environmentallysustainable behaviour (ESB).The model adapted is based on Hines, Hungerford and Tomera’s Environmental Responsible Behaviour Model which was established since 1987.The nature of this study was descriptive, and the data were collected using cross-sectional survey. A total of 425 participants responded to a questionnaire developed for this study. Several procedure was carried out in order to assess the validity and reliability of the questionnaire using PLS-SEM.The study revealed that the Malaysian Higher Education students showed a high level of knowledge of sustainability action skills, knowledge of sustainability strategies and knowledge of sustainability issues toward ESB and the environment. Findings associated with students’ gender, age, ethnicity, field of study and academic program were also reported and discussed.First, the participating students came from Institutions of Teacher Education. Although this institution is a major teacher training centre in the nation, further studies should include samples from other public and private institutions. Second, this study did not examine the correlation among the three main components: knowledge of sustainability action skills, knowledge of sustainability strategies and knowledge of sustainability issues.Limited studies have been conducted in Malaysia on ITE although the institutionsare supporting ESD through the Sustainable ITE program. Therefore, this study is exploring the critical success factors of knowledge on sustainability action skills, knowledge on sustainability strategies and knowledge on sustainability issues on environmentally sustainable behaviour ofteacher candidate students in Malaysia. In addition, past studies have recommended to investigate and look into the environmentally sustainablebehaviour among the younger generations, especially those with higher education levels, especially because inevitably, they are agents of change, and also they will be affected by the environmental issues that are caused by the current human activities. This paper also providesvaluable insights that foster a much better understanding in regards to the role of Institutions of Teacher Education (ITE) in assisting sustainable development, addressingthe important key issues to be considered in education system.
