A Study Regarding the Students' Perspective on the Efficiency of Using eLearning

Abstract

The success of an eLearning system depends on the understanding of certain antecedent factors that influence the students’ acceptance and usage of such distance learning systems. This paper aims to provide a discussion of the current eLearning environments including their space / time characteristics, and the major factors that affect the importance of such elements, from a students’ perspective. The analysis is based on an investigation of students’ perception of on-line learning enrolled in an engineering study program.
