“…This finding is in line with the research conducted by Forson and Vuopala (2019) in that students' skills in ICT is an important factor that contributes student readiness. Similarly, it correlates with the findings of the studies by Rahardjo (2018) and Martin, Stamper and Flowers (2020) in that knowledge and ability to use these tools increase student motivation and the expectation of success. However, the time spent on computers, mobile phones or tablet PCs does not affect the level of students' readiness for e-learning and/or knowledge sharing behaviors in online learning environments.…”

The rapid spread of Covid-19 pandemic has profoundly affected the educational practices all over the world and educational institutions sought ways to adapt to this unprecedented situation. The problem was that most of these institutions, educators and students were not ready for online learning environments and the stakeholders were not yet sure about how to share the knowledge in a better way. This study aims to examine the medical students' readiness for e-learning and knowledge sharing behaviors in online learning environments during Covid-19, and to analyze the relationship between these variables. The study has been designed according to correlational research methodology. The data were collected using "Knowledge Sharing Behavior in Online Learning Environments Scale" and "E-Learning Readiness Self-Assessment Instrument". 725 medical students participated in the study. Students' readiness for e-learning and knowledge sharing behaviors were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and the relationship between the variables was modeled using multivariate regression equation. The results revealed that the students with high ability to use computer, mobile phone and tablet PC have higher readiness level for e-learning in terms of technology access, technical skills, online relationships, motivation, online skills, importance of success. Similarly, they have a higher level of knowledge sharing behaviors in online learning environments.

“…The authors insist that learners must also be “e-ready” so that a coherent achievable strategy tailored to meet their needs may be implemented. It is true because learners' readiness in online learning environments (OLEs) is vital for them to be able follow through the learning process quite easily and properly (Rahardjo, 2018). Additionally, institutions need to evaluate their e-learning readiness levels (Adiyarta et al , 2018).…”

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to explore the role individual innovativeness along with e-learning self-efficacy play in predicting the e-learning readiness of first- and second-year students of an open and distance education institutions in an African context.Design/methodology/approachTherefore, building on previous related research in this area, a quantitative approach was adopted to address the research questions and to establish whether a statistically significant relationship existed between individual innovativeness, e-learning self-efficacy, the independent variables; and e-learning readiness, the dependent variable. In total, 476 first- and second-years students of the university participated in the four-Likert-type scale survey. The research instrument which comprises 74 survey items was completed by 217 of the students. Statistical tools used for analysing data included both Pearson Product Moment Correlation coefficients and t-tests.FindingsIt was discovered that a strong positive and significant relationship was observed between individual innovativeness and e-learning readiness of first- and second-year students of the Yenagoa Study Centre of the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN); a statistically significant relationship was also found between e-learning self-efficacy scores and the e-learning readiness of the first- and second-year students of the Yenagoa Study Centre of NOUN; there was a statistically significant joint relationship between the three variables under investigation; findings equally revealed that male respondents had higher e-learning readiness than their female counterparts.Research limitations/implicationsLike every other study of this nature, this one also suffers some limitations. First, NOUN is a very large university with over half a million students spread across almost 78 study centres. This means that observation from just one study centre amounts to a very small sample size. This according to Schweighofer, Weitlaner, Ebner and Rothe (2019) jeopardises the generalisability and validity of study results. The authors also maintain that empirical data generated from surveys that usually rely participants' abilities to read and select responses without further interpretation by the researchers suffer from cognitive biases like social desirability. To address the above limitations, detailed studies involving all studies centres of NOUN be undertaken and other qualitative and or mixed research methodologies be adopted in the future.Practical implicationsThe implications for this study are that people who are innately innovative will willingly accept technology and by extension, learning in technology-rich environments like those found in like NOUN whose mode of study is blended learning inherently found in open and distance learning (ODL) institution. Therefore, this study is significant as it will provide relevant information to the management and administrators of NOUN, policymakers and regulatory institutions for the development, deployment and implementation of e-learning strategies. Findings will also benefit e-learning initiatives undertaken by similar institutions that adopt the ODL mode of education in Nigeria and other developing countries.Originality/valueEven though, studies on the antecedents of e-learning readiness have been widely conducted across diverse contexts, studies exploring the associations between individual innovativeness, e-learning self-efficacy and e-learning readiness are relatively hard to come by. The above two variables as predicting the e-learning readiness in the study context are comparatively new. This study thus focuses on the relationships between the individual innovativeness levels, e-learning self-efficacy beliefs of students and their e-learning readiness which ultimately determines their ability to sustain studies in an ODL institution.

“…A study conducted by Djoko Rajarjo [15] describes that in order to understand the students' condition, it is necessary to know users' readiness and acceptance towards online tutorials. His study found that students' perception of the usefulness of e-learning platforms had a strong correlation to their intention to use the e-learning platform.…”

The growth of financial instruments is significant nowadays. Because of that, more people are becoming more responsible in their financial planning, investment, and living expenses. Individuals who have financial knowledge tend to have more assets in finance in general. This research will study the readiness of technology adoption as its preliminary analysis for middle-lower socio-economics users in financial literacy of a leading Indonesian Sharia financial inclusion bank that focuses on women empowerment. In addition, this research also identifies the must-have features of the e-learning application. This research will conduct an online survey with 118 samples in Indonesia. This study found that West Java, South Borneo, and Southeast Sulawesi users are the most well-prepared to use technology to support their business. Some features like a group of learning materials and video-based learning are the most attractive features users desire to be accessible in the e-learning application.
