Abstract

Aim: In emergency and virus epidemics, utilizing existing technologies and e-learning is the only way for institutes of higher education. In this study, factors affecting the acceptance of E-Learning in corona conditions were investigated. Methods: The research method was a descriptive survey, and it was an applied study. The sample consisted of 344 students of management and medical information sciences of Shiraz University of Medical Sciences in 2021. They were selected by stratified-randomly sampling. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire, including 26 questions and 6 factors. Data were analyzed by PLS software and path analysis test. Results: The results showed that facilitating condition has a direct effect on perceived ease of use (0.724) and perceived usefulness (0.580) and with path coefficient (0.328) through the mediating variable of perceived ease of use on perceived usefulness has an indirect and significant effect. In addition, the Perceived ease of use and Perceived Usefulness had a significant effect on students' attitudes of 43% and 44%, respectively. It was also found that by creating a positive attitude in students, 67% will lead to Behavioral Intention and then 80% to acceptance E-Learning by students of the University of Medical Sciences in Corona Crisis. Conclusion: In the present situation, in order to improve the acceptance and increase the efficiency of E-Learning, before using any educational and tool content, attention should be paid to the role of mental perception variables in ease of use and usefulness.
冠状病毒大流行期间电子学习的接受模式
目的:在紧急情况和病毒流行的情况下,利用现有技术和电子学习是高等教育机构的唯一途径。本研究调查了电晕条件下影响电子学习接受度的因素。方法:采用描述性调查法,采用应用研究法。样本为设拉子医科大学2021年管理与医学信息专业344名学生。他们是通过分层随机抽样选择的。数据收集工具为研究者自编问卷,共包含26个问题和6个因素。数据分析采用PLS软件和通径分析检验。结果:促进条件对感知易用性(0.724)和感知有用性(0.580)有直接影响,通过路径系数(0.328)的中介变量感知易用性对感知有用性有间接显著影响。此外,感知易用性和感知有用性对学生态度的影响显著,分别为43%和44%。研究还发现,通过在学生中创造积极的态度,67%的学生会产生行为意向,80%的学生会接受新冠危机医学大学的电子学习。结论:在目前的情况下,为了提高E-Learning的接受度和效率,在使用任何教育和工具内容之前,应注意心理感知变量在易用性和有用性方面的作用。
