Online education has become the norm for higher education institutions (HEIs) during this COVID-19 pandemics. HEIs are required to implement a fully online learning system that is structured and readily accessible with the assistance of a learning management system (LMS), including in developing countries such as the Philippines. This study aims to assess factors that positively influence the perceived satisfaction of engineering students when using the LMS during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines. Additionally, it aims to integrate two models: Task Technology Fit (TTF) and Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), with added variables such as the content of the learning management system, social presence, and social space. Upon deploying the convenience sampling, a total of 1011 engineering students responded in the online survey, which consisted of 81 questions. Structural equation modeling (SEM) showed that the Task Technology Fit was positively influenced by technology, individual, and task characteristics. Moreover, behavioral intention to use LMS was positively influenced by perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Furthermore, Task Technology Fit had a significant direct effect on behavioral intention to use LMS, which subsequently led to perceived satisfaction. This study is among the first to explore factors affecting perceived satisfaction among engineering students in using the LMS in the Philippines during the COVID-19 pandemic. To evaluate the perceived satisfaction of students in using the learning management system, future works can be extended and the model can be applied in other countries.
