“…A previous study showed that perceived usefulness has a positive influence on actual usage within the context of intranet technology (Lee & Kim, 2009). This finding is similar to results in various other studies (Kim et al, 2007;Rahman et al, 2016;Kripanont, 2007;Norzaidi et al, 2007).…”

With the development of the internet and information technologies, the usage of electronic textbooks that are also known as e-books, e-text books or digital books have become increasingly popular in the educational setting. Students are therefore very interested in these new technologies for their learning at universities. Besides, there is a tremendous growth of e-textbook towards study habits of undergraduate students as alternatives to printed textbooks. Since the majority of the academic institutions had experienced online learning during the pandemic of covid-19, thus the demand towards online books has also increased drastically. The main aim of this study is to identify the motivational factors that affect the students' adoption towards e-textbook in their learning at university. This study discusses the three elements which include perceived usefulness, perceived value and ease of use which could drive the students to use e-textbook. Next, the future research will further conduct an analysis in detail based on those factors to explore the potential impact towards adoption behaviour in using e-textbook among students.

“…(2014) stated that there are few positive perceptions on the ease of use in which they noted that most of the academic staff has experience in using computer for more than 10 years and adopting blended learning among them is not a problem. Anisur et al (2016) in their study found that there is a positive correlation between perceived ease of use and system usage. In addition, Osama et al (2016), noted that perceived ease of use has the highest score of mean indicated that respondents considered that blended learning is easy to use, understandable and flexible.…”

To date, there are a growing number of higher learning institutions in Malaysia begin to adopt blended learning as a new teaching method in tandem with Malaysia Education Blueprint 2025. For centuries, a traditional method of teaching is now described as a passive teaching mode because they discourage students from critically filtering the delivered information. For this purpose, the present study intends to examine the effects academicians’ interest, ICT facilities, perceived ease of use and adequate training on the system adoption. Evidently, the result shows that academician interest, adequate training and perceived ease of use are the main important determinant in adopting the blended learning approach among Malaysian academicians. This study contributes to present literature on blended learning effectiveness particularly in Malaysian context. The outcomes obtained can benefit all lecturers, students as well as management of the university and indirectly enhanced the quality of the university itself. Abstrak Sehingga kini, semakin banyak institusi pengajian tinggi di Malaysia mula menggunapakai pembelajaran gabungan sebagai kaedah pengajaran baru selaras dengan Pelan Pendidikan Malaysia 2025. Selama berabad-abad, kaedah pengajaran tradisional kini digambarkan sebagai mod pengajaran pasif kerana ianya tidak menggalakkan pelajar daripada menapis maklumat yang dihantar secara kritis. Untuk tujuan ini, kajian ini berhasrat untuk mengkaji kesan ahli akademik, kemudahan ICT, kemudahan penggunaan yang mudah dan latihan yang mencukupi ke atas penggunaan sistem. Jelas sekali, hasilnya menunjukkan minat ahli akademik, latihan yang mencukupi dan kemudahan penggunaannya adalah penentu penting utama dalam mengadaptasi pendekatan pembelajaran gabungan dalam kalangan ahli akademik Malaysia. Kajian ini menyumbang untuk menyampaikan literatur berhubung dengan keberkesanan pembelajaran gabungan terutamanya dalam konteks Malaysia. Hasil yang diperoleh dapat memberi manfaat kepada semua pensyarah, pelajar serta pengurusan universiti dan secara tidak langsung meningkatkan mutu universiti itu sendiri.

“…TAM, which was introduced by Fred D. Davis in 1986, is considered to be the greatest influential theory describing the acceptance of information systems (Lee et al, 2003). A well-known theory on the use and prediction of information technology acceptance, its capability has been validated by several studies in the domain of e-learning (Lee et al, 2011;Padilla-Meléndez et al, 2013;Lee et al, 2014;Tarhini et al, 2014;Wu and Zhang, 2014;Al-Gahtani, 2016;Rahman et al, 2016). The model is rooted in the Theory of Reasoned Action and Theory of Planned Behavior which were proposed by Ajzen and Fishbein (1980), Sarcheshmeh et al (2018), andAjzen (1985), respectively, under the theories of Social Psychology (Al-Fraihat et al, 2020).…”

Online learning systems have become an applied solution for delivering educational content, especially in developing countries, since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. The present study is designed to identify the factors influencing the behavioral intention of agricultural students at universities in Iran to use online learning systems in the future. This research uses an extended model in which the constructs of Internet self-efficacy, Internet anxiety, and output quality are integrated into the technology acceptance model (TAM). Data analysis was performed using the SmartPLS technique. The analyses showed the proposed model to be strong in terms of predicting the attitude to online learning and the intention to use it. The extended TAM model fit the data well and predicted 74% of the intention variance. Our findings show attitude and perceived usefulness to have directly affected intention. Output quality and Internet self-efficacy indirectly affected attitude and intention. Research findings can help with the design of educational policies and programs to facilitate education and improve student academic performance.
