Exploring students' perceptions of learning management system: An empirical study based on TAM

This research aims to explore the perceptions of students in using learning management system (LMS) in order to enhance the learning process of students. The research also identifies issues that students faced when using LMS in order to improve the ease of use of LMS. Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is used as the theoretical framework to explain the adoption of LMS in term of perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. Respondents agree that LMS is easy to use and useful to them as a repository. However, results indicate that there is a lack of interaction among lecturers and peers.
