Abstract
The global COVID-19 epidemic has had a considerable influence on the educational sector, leading to a shift away from traditional education and toward e-learning education. This change has made it more difficult for students to adopt modern technologies, such as e-learning systems. The objective of this research is to investigate the influence of technological attributes on the usefulness and acceptance of e-learning systems among Jordanian students. A conveniencesample of 343 questionnaires was distributed to Jordanianprivate university students and evaluated using a five-pointLikert scale. The descriptive statistics and sub-hypotheses wereexamined with SPSS regression analysis. The main hypotheseswere evaluated using SEM in AMOS. The study found thattechnology attributes significantly impact the perceivedusefulness and acceptance of e-learning systems, both jointlyand separately. Acceptance of e-learning systems has beenpositively impacted by perceived usefulness. Moreover, it foundthat acceptance of e-learning systems has been positivelyimpacted by technology attributes via usefulness. The studysuggested that universities and educational institutions addressthese attributes to improve students’ perceived usefulness andacceptability of e-learning technologies.
