Description :
Despite the growing technology in higher education universities have failed to bring
computer use, e-learning, on line learning into the main stream and maximize the
potential benefits in the classroom . Yet colleges and universities continue to invest
large sums of money in automation and electronic communication facilities. Measuring
students’ attitude towards e-learning provides a beneficial construct to predict learning
outcomes. This study was designed to examine students toward e-learning at RTM
Nagpur University in India. Data was collected through a survey of 300 post graduate
students. The results showed that 68.66% Students were significantly positive towards
e-learning. However 31.31% of students had negative attitude towards e-learning. It was
about 77.33% of students perceived e-learning usefulness. About 59.99% of students
intended to adopt e-learning. Further, enter regression analyses revealed a statistically
– significant model for perceived usefulness of e-learning and intention to adopt elearning
as the best predictors of student’s attitude towards e-learning (F =994.905,
df=1, R squre = .714, P < 0.0001).
