Why do most students refuse e-learning even though their use of smartphones is more than anyone
These days students want to be spoon fed.. whatsoever..
In my country, Iraq, students did not get used to electronic education, they used to have a class and teacher explaining the matter to them directly .. So one of the reasons is that students do not accept education online due to the psychological factor to accept the idea of education electronically, they need time until it gets used to it
This is attributed to that the people as general hesitate to use any new tool and it will take time to be popular. So the education using e learning firstly not accepted but I think after some times it will become acceptable tool. To success the e learning it should be provided the accessories and tools such as high speed and cheap net.
This is attributed to the disadvantages of E-Learning:
No self-discipline. ...
No face-to-face interaction. ...
Lack of flexibility. ...
Lack of input from trainers. ...
Slow evolution. ...
Good e-learning is difficult to do. ...
Lack of transformational power.
The dimensions of information systems include organizations, people, and information technology.
based on the above dimensions, for a better technology acceptance there should be a proportionate change in the above dimensions. Such that changing the technology calls for a change in the people and the organization and vice versa.
change here is not equal to dismissal
Because its considerd as new idea and this idea dosnt correspond wirh student culture within developing countries ( including iraq ) and require long time and huge resources to applied in right way.
يعتمد ذلك على طبيعة الظروف التي يعيشها الطلبة، ومدى توفر الدعم اللازم لنجاح مشروع التعليم الإلكتروني
Simply, most of the students nowadays are missing a sense of responsibility whatever the reasons.
E-learning is a good way of exchanging knowledge and interaction between lectures, teachers and students, through the computer and through the internet.
I am not sure I would agree with your initial premise. Define your student population, define student for that matter. How are you relating the "use" of smartphones with elearning, distance learning? What are you trying to accomplish - are you saying that because a group uses smartphones they should therefore engage in elearning at a greater rate? Are the activities related? While there may be value associated with the integration of social learning activities within elearning a higher use of smartphones is not the same comparison.
The reading culture is not smartphone based. This trend is just very new and most students prefer reading from the papers/books. Above all, they believe their phone is meant for some other things beside reading, and it will take a long time to compel them to buy this difficult idea.
