E-learning Policies and E-learning Acceptance and Usage

Abstract

E-learning is identified in many studies as an enabler of education. A
lot of benefits and opportunities have been anticipated in the adoption
of e-learning. However despite this, its benefits have not been fully
realized and e-learning has not been fully utilized as advertised. This
study focuses on the individual users’ acceptance and usage of e-
learning and influence of e-learning policies on e-learning acceptance
and usage. A selected sample of universities in Uganda was used to
carry out this study. Several challenges were identified from which
possible requirements where obtained. The science methodology design
was used. Evaluation results indicated that where e-learning policies
existed, acceptance and usage of e-learning systems were greatly
improved.
