Summary
Student aspirations, including motivation, expectation, and enjoyment, significantly impact e-learning system success in higher education. Enhancing student enjoyment is key to maximizing the value of electronic learning experiences.
Area of Science:
- Educational Technology
- Information Systems
- Higher Education
Background:
- E-learning system success is crucial in higher education.
- Understanding student aspirations' role in e-learning adoption is challenging.
Purpose of the Study:
- Analyze how student aspirations (Motivation, Expectation, Enjoyment) influence e-learning system success.
- Develop and test a research model integrating the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology and the DeLone and McLean Information System Success Model.
Main Methods:
- Collected data from 379 students using e-learning in Saudi Arabian universities.
- Employed structural equation modeling to analyze causal relationships.
- Integrated established technology acceptance and IS success models.
Main Results:
- Student aspirations (Motivation, Expectation, Enjoyment) strongly correlate with adoption factors (Intention to Use, Perceived Usefulness).
- These factors increase student confidence in e-learning's educational value.
- Enjoyment significantly determines the perceived benefits of e-learning.
Conclusions:
- Higher education institutions must prioritize student aspirations, particularly enjoyment, for effective e-learning.
- Redefining 'e-learning' as 'enjoy learning' can enhance its perceived value and adoption.

8
Self-esteem is intricately tied to our perception of competence and our ability to exert control over our lives. One of the primary sources of this perception is performance feedback — the ongoing evaluation of our actions in terms of success and failure. According to Franks and Marolla (1976), people derive self-worth from experiencing themselves as causal agents, capable of achieving goals and overcoming obstacles. This process nurtures a critical component of self-esteem:...

The Self-Evaluation Maintenance (SEM) model offers a psychological framework to understand how individuals’ self-esteem is influenced by the achievements of others, particularly those with whom they share close personal bonds. The SEM model operates when personal rather than social identity guides individuals. Central to this model is the notion that individuals have an inherent desire to preserve a favorable self-image, which is continuously shaped by interpersonal comparisons and...

Attribution theory plays a crucial role in social psychology, helping to explain how individuals interpret the causes of behavior. One prominent model within this field is Harold Kelley's covariation theory, which provides a systematic approach to determining whether internal traits or external circumstances drive a person's actions. The model posits that individuals rely on three key types of information—consensus, consistency, and distinctiveness—to make these judgments.Consensus:...
