Abstract
The novel COVID-19 pandemic has impacted educational systems in almost all countries worldwide. Traditional classes have been canceled or shifted to online mode through the affected countries. Resuming traditional face-to-face instruction might be delayed. This unexpectedly fast and mandatory shifting to online education, along with the significant challenges that face learners and instructors, has led to uncertainty regarding its future. This study aims to inspect students’ continuous intention (CI) towards online education during COVID-19, by incorporating different constructs from three theoretical models: first, conservation values( Security(SEC), Conformity(CON)) of Schwartz Value Theory(SVT), organizational support factors (Training(TR), Top management support(TS)) in Technology-Organizational-Environmental (TOE) , and the Technology acceptance model(TAM ) main factors (perceived usefulness(PU), perceived ease of use(PEU)). To achieve the research goal, a research model was developed referring to previous strong literature. The data was gathered from 310 students from Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal university (IAU) in Saudi Arabia, and analyzed with Structural Equation Modelling SEM-PLS. Findings show that TAM factors (PU, PEU), conservation values factors (SEC, CON), and organizational support factors (TR, TS) are important determinants for online learning adoption during COVID19 pandemic . The study provides directions for designers and developers to establish a more effective online learning environment, which is more suited for the new digitized generation during unexpected conditions.
期刊介绍:
The Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education (TOJDE) is a peer-reviewed quarterly e-journal. International in scope, this scholarly e-journal publishes refereed articles focusing on the issues and challenges of providing theory, research and information services to global learners in any kind of distance education or open learning applications. TOJDE will particularly strive to meet the continuing education needs of practitioners and educators by providing a forum for the discussion of extended learning strategies, policies and practices, and trends in information technology as they impact the delivery of student support services for distance learners and faculties.
