Abstract

This study investigates the mediating influence of perceived ease of use on the relationship among faculty perspective, students’ perspective, technology perspective and the effectiveness of online learning. Employing a causal-comparative research design, data were collected from 390 respondents using a five-point Likert scale. Structural equation modelling through AMOS was employed as the data analysis tool. The research findings reveal that perceived ease of use plays a crucial mediating role in the association among faculty perspective, students’ perspective, technology perspective and the effectiveness of online learning. The results underscore the significance of user experience and the ease with which individuals interact with online learning platforms in influencing the overall effectiveness of online education. These findings offer valuable insights into enhancing the design and implementation of online learning systems, with the aim of improving user satisfaction and maximizing the educational outcomes of online learning environments. As technology continues to play an integral role in modern education, understanding the role of perceived ease of use becomes paramount in creating engaging and effective online learning experiences. Future research avenues may delve deeper into specific factors that contribute to perceived ease of use, further enriching our understanding of the intricate dynamics between user perspectives and online learning effectiveness.
