Description
The use of computer technology has become very useful in our educational institutions as compared to the traditional learning. Today university’s nowadays use e-learning modules to support their education systems. Yet still most researches do not consider multiple stakeholder perspective when dealing with topics on e-learning. Some studies only focus on a single stakeholder among the main categories of stakeholders thus learners, lecturers, administrators. In addition, some literatures also miss the multi factor of the adoption of e-learning which is the technological organisational and environmental. This study therefore discusses the antecedent and the consequences of the e-learning and uses the TOE framework to explore the approach from the multiple stakeholder perspective on the adoption.
The study used quantitative approach for the survey which focused on two universities in the developing countries which have adopted e-learning with a total number 350 stakeholders
(students, lecturers and administrators). Means and standard deviation, multiple regression and correlation were all used for the analysis of data. The study originality is the multi-stakeholder perspective with a multi-dimensional framework (Technology, Organisation, Environment and Nature of Course) approaches to the study of elearning adoption in a developing country. The research recommends that, the use of relatively user-friendly applications should be employed and there should also be the E-learning architecture to integrate the structures which would ensure limit in anxiety on the part of patrons.
