Description
Summary:Researching about adult workers' adoption reflected to organisation and individual in developing countries are needed due to obtaining better and bridge the gap. 111 addition, previous empirical studies that conducted on e-learning have shown low adoption rate anlong e-learners in Jordan. This study aimed to examine factors such as relative advantage. compatibility, complexity, information quality, system quality and service quality that drive adult workers in adopting elearuing system in their learning process. In other words, there is a weakness in applying e-learning irnplen~entation in Jordanian government universities. As a result, the Ministry of Higher Education in Jordan needs to have guidelines to help higher learning institutions to implement e-learning successfully and efficiently. A total of 502 adult workers currently pursuing their study at Arab Open University in Jordan were selected to be the sample for this study. Questionnaire was en~ployed as the data collection approach for the present study. The findings revealed that five predictor variables, namely relative advantage, complexity, information quality, system quality and service quality were the most significant factor influencing e-learning adoption. This research has provided new knowledge with regard to e-learning through the developn~ento f an e-learning adoption model. Practical contribution includes imsights into the factors and causes deterring e-learner from adopting e-learning in their learning process.
