Abstract

This work seeks to identify the determinants of e-learning effectiveness. We have measured this effectiveness through three individual variables which are motivation, self effectiveness and anxiety towards technology. The objective is to make it possible to the various concerned actors to better understand the factors influencing e-learning effectiveness. Therefore, the research question is formulated as follow: What are the factors contributing to e-learning effectiveness?
The empirical validation of the model has been carried out through a sample of 350 learners registered in two Tunisian establishments. The empirical validation is ensured by factor analyses and structural equations models. Based on these analyses, we could partially validate the effect of motivation, and computer anxiety on the learners’ reaction. Moreover, we were able to check the important effect of motivation on learning.
