Impact of E- Learning on Students Performance in NCT

Abstract

Online learning management systems are in use to facilitate the face to face learning process in many educational institutions to upgrade the learning skills of students and enhance their knowledge. There are many variables that form and influence a student’s perception of an online learning management system. This study investigates whether there is a relationship between the perception of a student regarding the learning management system and their actual usage of such system. It is believed to help better understand the student usage of online learning management system. An online questionnaire was published on an e-learning management system for diploma students and the student participation was voluntary. Results indicate that different specialization students are comfortable in using computer and internet and also their learning scope has widened due to Moodle usage. Interestingly, different gender students are not equally comfortable using computer and internet and also their learning scope has not widened equally due to Moodle usage.
