Purpose In the context of the abrupt shift to technology-enabled distance education, this paper examines the role of intrinsic learning motivation, computer self-efficacy and learning engagement in facilitating higher learning effectiveness in a web-based learning environment. Design/methodology/approach Data was collected using a self-administered online questionnaire from a sample of randomly selected 508 university students from different disciplines, including science, technology, and management. Findings Learning motivation and computer self-efficacy positively influenced students' learning engagement, with computer self-efficacy having a more substantial impact. Proposed mediation hypotheses too were supported. Originality/value The insights gained from this study will help in devising strategies for improving students' learning effectiveness. Game-based learning pedagogy and computer simulations can help students understand the higher meaning and purpose of the learning process.

Using data from 100 individuals, this study examined the role of performance attributions (stability and locus of causality) and computer self-efficacy (CSE) for spreadsheets and databases in the training context. The results show that both self-efficacy and attributions (locus of causality and stability) for unsuccessful performance on one software package affected future efficacy estimations for both the same software package (spreadsheet) as well as for a related software package (database). These findings extend previous research by illustrating that through the generality of CSE estimations, users' performance on one software package are related to self-efficacy estimations on a different, distally similar, software application. This suggests that trainers and managers cannot overlook the importance of self-efficacy generality in the design of technology training initiatives. Early, unsuccessful experiences for those with limited technology experience can make it more challenging to adapt to, and learn to use, new technologies.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to highlight the factors that aid e-training adoption in the Nigerian civil service. Design/methodology/approach – This paper is based on a review of past literature from databases, reports, newspapers, magazines, etc. The literature recognised the role of perceived cost, computer self-efficacy, availability of resources and perceived support in e-training adoption. Using technology acceptance model (TAM), this paper explained the importance of these variables in e-training adoption in developing country context. Findings – The authors found that the combined role of perceived cost, computer self-efficacy, technological infrastructure, Internet facilities, power supply, organisational support, technical support and government support is critical for e-training adoption in developing countries, particularly in Nigeria. Thus, the authors proposed the combination of these variables which would encourage future research on the use of TAM in technology adoption. Research limitations/implications – This paper gives an elaboration of the role of computer self-efficacy, perceived cost, availability of resources and perceived support with TAM as base of the framework. This provides researchers the opportunity to test the proposed framework empirically and further suggest other variables that can aid e-training adoption in the context of developing country. Practical implications – The result of this paper can serve as a guide to managers and policymakers to have a better understanding of the requirements for e-training adoption, especially in developing countries. This will go a long way towards designing good policies that could maximise e-training results. Originality/value – This paper adds to the existing literature on e-training and TAM with the suggestion of proposed variables.

This paper is to emphasize the factors that aid e-training adoption in the developing country like Jordan. This paper is based on past review literature databases. The literature recognized the role of computer self-efficacy, availability of resources and perceived support in e-training adoption. This paper using the technology acceptance model (TAM) for modelling framework and explained the importance of these variables in e-training adoption in developing country context. The author found that the combined role of computer self-efficacy, technological infrastructure, Internet facilities and technical support is critical for e-training adoption in developing countries, particularly in Jordan.Thus, the authors proposed the combination of these variables which would encourage future research on the use of TAM in technology adoption.
