Students' Perceptions of E-learning at the University of Jordan

E-learning occupies a high place in universities and academic institutes and it is given the priority by the departments in these educational institutions. What we are witnessing today of the development of information technology and communications, networks, and multimedia is pushing us in the direction of the adoption of E-learning in education. The purpose of this study is to examine students' perception of E-learning at the University of Jordan based on Technology Acceptance Model. The results of the study show that the students are highly qualified and accepting the E-learning system with the desire to use it in more advanced manner.
