Abstract
This research aimed to study and validate a causal relationship model of intention to use e-learning among college students of management science faculty, Bansomdejchopraya Rajabhat University. The sample consisted of 400 college students of management science faculty at Bansomdejchopraya Rajabhat University. Two-stage random sampling from secondary dataset of e-learning effectiveness evaluation was used. Research instruments including personal data questionnaire, the E-learning acceptance scale and the computer self-efficacy scale with reliability between 0.91 - 0.93 were used. Frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation, Pearson’s correlation coefficient and structural equation model were used to analyze data.
The results indicated that intention to use e-learning model fitted the data (2 = 291, df = 109, CFI = 0.99,
RMSEA = 0.04, SRMR = 0.03, CN = 301), computer self-efficay, perceived ease of use, and perceived usefulness were critical factors for student’s intention to use e-learning.
