Assessment of e-learning implementation in Cambodia Islamic Centre

Abstract

The use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has become a necessity for the education sector. Many governments have implemented strategies to push the adoption of ICT as medium and support for teaching and learning in schools. As manifested in the literature, today, more and more schools adopted electronic learning (e-learning) as part of their teaching delivery. Interestingly however, despite increasing number of e-learning adoption, the literature shows that the level of usage rate is rather low in developing countries. Therefore, it is the aim of this study to examine of the factor affecting the e-learning behavioral usage continuance intention. The study was conducted through the use of Theory Reasoned Action (TRA) as the research framework. The data collected in this study was based on 151 responses, collected from the high school and secondary school in Cambodia. The adapted and modified questionnaires were designed using the 5-point Likert scale and the chi square and PLS-SEM was used to test the affected factor and internal consistency of research instruments. A series of chi-square analysis was conducted to the e-learning benefits and advantages against the demographical factors (age, gender, and level of education), and SEM-PLS Algorithms is used to test internal consistency reliability, indicator reliability, convergent validity and discriminant validity. Through SEM-PLS, a model was developed to explain the influencing factors that affect the students’ intention to continuously use internet in their learning activities. A bootstrapping method was used to determine the relationship between variables. A number of findings emerged in this study. Among others is positive influence of self-efficacy, perceived quality and perceived usefulness on the satisfaction. A set of recommendation is provided to assist education sector, in Cambodia in particular, in order to motivate students to use e-learning and provide student with greater advantages.
