Summary: | The determination of the antecedents of the use of an e-learning system is imperative to ensure its successful adoption and continuance of usage. This study investigates the relationship between the two constructs, namely system characteristics (system functionality, infrastructure and technical support) and user motivation (perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness) towards the use of Universiti Malaya’s e-learning system among engineering students. A specially-developed questionnaire was used to elicit responses with items adopted from previous related studies. Items structure analysis of the questionnaire revealed high reliability. A sample of 70 engineering students of Universiti Malaya were involved as the respondents. A series of multiple regression analysis was conducted to establish the interrelationship between the variables within the constructs and their influence towards system usage. The findings indicate that system functionality played a very strong part in influencing both the perceived usefulness. |
