E-learning has become a most popular learning approach of higher education in Sri Lanka, due to the advancements of Information Technology. This study focused on the undergraduates' acceptance of elearning as an effective tool. The successfulness of implementing e-learning requires the understanding of end-user acceptance process. Therefore, this study focused on investigating the acceptance of e-learning approach among undergraduates in Western Province, Sri Lanka. The aim of this research was to provide a set of factors to be considered when an E-learning activity is planned and proposed to E-learners in universities of Sri Lanka. The Technology Acceptance Model which was modified by including some factors was used as the basic framework of this study which was suitable for achieving the objectives of the research. This study was based on total sample of 209 students who are following Computing degrees in the universities located in Western Province, Sri Lanka. The results of this study suggested that university students tend to focus more on perceived ease of use on e-learning and the students' attitude has more influence on intention to use elearning. So it could be concluded that providing more technological facilities with infrastructure would increase the positive attitude towards using e-learning among university students and behavioral intention to use.

The evolution and the internationalization of education system, has made the learning process easier and flexible. Over the past few years, E-Learning has evolved with demand from an increasing number of countries that transform the academic policy in order to produce highly educated community. Electronic learning (E-Learning) is learning utilizing electronic technologies to access educational curriculum outside of a traditional classroom. In most cases it refers to a course or program or degree delivered completely online. To be competitive and cost efficient, higher learning institutions are struggling to adapt an E-Learning approach. As such E-Learning has struggled to find acceptance in academic circles. Thus, this study aims to explore the effectiveness of E-Learning from three variables which are acceptance, accessibility and the cost savings. This study recruited 315 university students through random sampling. Data were collected through survey. The respondents were asked for consent before proceeding to the survey in order to ensure that ethical consideration was taken into account during conducting the study. Data were analysed using statistical package of social sciences (SPSS) and various statistical techniques were used such as descriptive analysis and regression analysis. Results indicate that there was a significant relationship between acceptance and the effectiveness of E-Learning, while it was different for the accessibility and cost savings. The result also found that acceptance is an important factor that contributes to the effectiveness of E-Learning with a value of β = 0.982. In conclusion, it is time to improve the E-Learning system through access to mobiles and moving towards a new educational paradigm called "M-Learning".

“…Previous researchers such as , Song (2010) & Selim (2007 states that the role of lecturers (expertise, active participation, skills, support) and course design (user-friendly, flexible, easy-to-use, updated and relevant) is important and can contributes to student satisfaction. However, the results of this study found that three elements in the expectation components such as self-directed learning, interaction quality between students and peers and course design quality can give positive effects on satisfaction towards e-learning.…”

This study aims to identify the relationships between expectations and satisfaction of students towards learning. A total of 250 students, attended undergraduate program in the Institute of Teacher Education, a Bachelor degree program 2013-2014 in Education-Teaching specialization, involved as respondents in this study. The study was conducted using quantitative methods and questionnaires as the instrument. The main constructs such as expectations and satisfaction were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics which covers the frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test, ANOVA and Pearson correlation, and eight elements were also discussed: course design quality, interaction quality between students, tutor and peers, self-directed learning, content, process, technology, social and continuance use intention. Results showed that students at Institute Teacher of Education in Sarawak, Malaysia have high level expectations of e-learning whereas satisfaction towards e-learning has an average level. For demographic elements, the study showed that gender does not significantly affect the students' expectations. However, the study found that the program has significantly affected the students' expectations of e-learning.
