“…The US factor, which assesses total e-learning process satisfaction, is crucial to the success of IS (Hadoussa, 2020). Reliability, relevance, usefulness, and efficacy are the US attributes this survey captured (Pillay & Maharaj, 2014). Usage of the IS and users' perceptions of its effectiveness in meeting their informational demands during the learning process can be used to measure the US (Harandi, 2015).…”

Purpose: This study provides an analytical framework based on the literature to evaluate the effectiveness of E-learning portals. The study aims to contrast the accessibility of e-learning portals from the perspectives of business and engineering students. Research methodology: Using convenience and snowball sampling methods with the help of Google polls, the data was acquired from 482 students, including engineering and business students. The study used a seven-point Likert-type questionnaire to gather data. The study employed PLS-SEM to do a multi-group analysis and examine group differences. Results: The results revealed user satisfaction predicts the system used for both models. Only e-service quality is the significant predictor of user satisfaction and the system used in the business model, but the system and information qualities are also predictors in the engineering model. Finally, the success of an e-learning portal is positively correlated with user satisfaction and system use. Limitations: This study consists of only a sample of 482 students. Future research may take into account using a bigger sample size. Additionally, this study mostly focused on how students perceived the efficacy of the e-learning portal while ignoring the viewpoints of the instructors and the institution, which may vary. Contribution: Higher administration in Bangladeshi educational institutions will find the study helpful in building policies and plans for the growth of e-learning portals. Novelty: This work validates the DeLone and McLean Model in the context of Bangladeshi undergraduate students. The study shows how business and engineering students' access to e-learning portals varies.

“…The US dimension measures the overall satisfaction with e-learning system (Petter and McLean, 2009) and is considered important to IS success. US characteristics captured in this study include dependability, relevance, usefulness, and effectiveness (DeLone and McLean, 2003;Pillay and Maharaj, 2014). US can be measured based on the people's feelings who use the IS and the degree to which they believe that it their informational needs, in the learning process, have been met (Freeze et al, 2010;Harandi, 2015).…”

After the outbreak of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in late December 2019, in an attempt to mitigate its development, the decision to close institutions around the world was made. To continue imparting education and delivering the learning material to their students, many institutions adopted for digital or E-learning. To support those institutions attempting to digitize their learning during this pandemic, the main aim of this study is to examine the students’ accessibility to and success of E-learning portals. Using the DeLone and McLean (D&M) Model, the study explains the differences between female and male students’ accessibility to E-learning portals. This study compares female and male student groups regarding the usage of the E-learning portal in the higher education context. Using an online google survey, the data were collected from 254 students, including males and females. The study utilized PLS-SEM to perform a multi-group analysis examining female and male student groups. The study found a significant and direct relationship of e-service quality with system use and user satisfaction for females and male student groups. System quality also supported the relationship with user satisfaction. The study further revealed a significant and positive relationship between system use and user satisfaction with E-learning portal success for females and male student groups. This study also concluded that insignificant difference exists in using the E-learning portal between female and male student in higher education institutions.

During the COVID-19 period, the e-learning system saw increased usage and study; existing dimensions related to technologies and learners are not adequately explored while discussing e-learning adoption. As a technology, adopting e-learning for education in Indonesia confronts numerous resilience problems due to its benefits. This article analyzed the resilience paradoxes, namely, transformation, sociocultural, modernization, integrity, and ethics, to raise awareness and elicit the essential responses to enhance e-learning adoption and utilization. The approach used in this study is qualitative and phenomenological. 25 people were interviewed for this research; participants include teachers and students. The analysis step is easier to understand and is explicitly designed to analyze and conceptualize qualitative data using the most recent QSR qualitative research software. The study examined the divergent and contradictory perspectives of technology supporters and technology doubters on e-learning in Indonesian education; this gives a valid starting point for a critical and in-depth debate about e-learning; it is not simple to reconcile this dilemma. However, this study works to be knowledgeable of paradoxes and be prepared to resolve the issue and get the intended results.
