The usefulness of a web site is based on the prospect of a satisfactory website user. In improving the usefulness of a university’s website, it is essential to present precise data and disseminate prompt information to students. This paper was conducted to analyse and recommend a better process for the information display (content and work processes) of university websites development. Questionnaires were distributed and feedbacks were received from 350 respondents. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the process of (content and processes) of the university websites based on five main aspects: i) Content and Organization Structure, ii) Linkages and Navigation, iii) Language, iv) Education Content and v) Option and Performance. Analysis showed that the percentage of question items has a positive tendency in perception regarding improvements need to enhance the intensity of the university website portal, especially in terms of links, content organization and live help desk requirements that can directly provide an easier means of that can providing information and accelerating up the operation of receiving data. In summary, this study also outlines the proposal for academic websites display to increase the serviceability of the site to users.

“…Less attention to the importance of interface elements and design characteristics complicate the process of developing cultural interface design [26] [27] [28]. Hofstede's cultural model is commonly used to explain culture based on six www.ijacsa.thesai.org dimensions which are power distance (PDI), masculine (MAS), individualistic (IDV), uncertainty avoidance (UAI), long term orientation (LTO) and indulgence (IVR).…”

E-learning is the latest evolution of electronicbased learning that creates, fosters, delivers and facilitates the learning process anytime and anywhere with the use of interactive network technology. The use of e-learning as a learning platform makes users want a high quality of interface design to interact with the e-learning system. Interface design that meets students' needs and expectations may increase their involvement and satisfaction towards e-learning, especially generation Z students. However, interface design is always being criticized and has become a part of issues that cause the failure of e-learning. Lack of understanding about students' cultural background and preferences towards e-learning interface design are the major factors that contribute to this phenomenon. To ensure the success of e-learning, a model of interface design specifically for generation Z students' culture that consists of interface elements and design characteristics need to be developed. So, this study aimed to address this subject by identifying e-learning interface elements and design characteristics from existing literature, confirming the elements and design characteristics and discovering related elements for elearning interface design from generation Z students' perspective. This study used semi-structured for a focus group interview that included seven students. The focus group interview involved three main steps which were sampling, protocol and research instruments. This study validated several interface elements and design characteristics that contribute to the model of e-learning interface design. The findings could guide the interface designer in designing e-learning interface for generation Z students.
