Paper Abstract:
|
Due to COVID-19 pandemic, the Saudi Ministry of Education decided to transform the educational process for both
primary and secondary schools into electronic education for the first time. In this regard, it has established a new platform
called Madrasti to ensure the effective transformation of learning. The study aims to highlight the features of the Madrasti
platform and adopted the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) to determine the factors that
influence students' acceptance of e-learning platforms in primary and secondary education in Saudi Arabia. A total of 802
students from different levels responded to the survey on UTAUT constructs. Empirical data revealed that performance
expectancy and social influence determine students' behavioral intention. Moreover, facilitating conditions and
behavioral intentions determine students' use of e-learning platforms. |
