The Antecedent of E-Learning Adoption

This study aims to examine the factors that can explain the psychological motivation of students in online learning at universities. There are factors studied from IT infrastructure, perceived ease of use and e-learning adoption from students. The study focuses on student behavior in adapting online to the concept of e-learning. The research method used to examine student behavior as users is a quantitative survey. Survey to students with online questionnaires, where a total of 151 respondents were collected. Data from respondents were tested through SmartPLS by testing research hypotheses. The test results found that perceived ease of use and e-learning adoption were important factors in increasing the psychological motivation of students in online learning. Another finding is that IT infrastructure is not able to support student motivation, this is possible because technology is not the main thing that needs to be considered when learning e-learning. This research has benefits for universities in evaluating the concept of e-learning.
