Data was collected from 353 Saudi Arabian university students via an online survey…

As the online learning environment continues to proliferate and dominate higher education learning systems, more investigation is required to explicate the adoption rate of these systems and the factors influencing students' adoption. Previous research has demonstrated the learning environment role in self-regulation learning and the association…

Despite the widespread adoption of learning management systems (LMS) by universities worldwide, it has been found that the students' use of them is not always optimal. Based on the technology acceptance model (TAM), this quantitative research aims to examine the factors that impact the students' utilisation of LMS in higher-educational…

As a new trend in learning, simulation games play an active and essential role in the area of educational technology. Gaming makes a positive impact on the learning process. It has the capability to enhance creativity, problem-solving, communication, decision-making, and collaboration (Faizan et al., 2015). This paper is aimed at exploring the…

Learning Management System is a software-based technology that is widely adopted by universities. While the implementation of LMS has been successful in developed countries, the utilisation of LMS in developing countries is still considered low. It is believed that there are some barriers that may influence the use of LMS which include Technical…
