Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To assess faculty member's experiences and attitudes towards e-learning among academic teaching institutions. METHODOLOGY: A quantitative design was implemented in this study to analyze faculty members' attitudes of ten higher education institutions. A structured survey tool of e-learning was adopted to obtain information from the university faculty from March to May 2020. RESULTS: Completed questionnaire findings demonstrated a high-level attitude (84%) with the mean, SD, 3.10±0.22 towards e-learning and showed a significant correlation between technology support and trainers' attitudes towards e-learning (virtual learning) at p�0.019. Hence, higher education institution faculty members' attitude is one of the most important stakeholders for incorporating the virtual learning system in the teaching-learning process to promote quality education. CONCLUSION: Multi-modal delivery methods and technologies (Blackboard system) of the e-learning currently being employed by higher education academic institutions positively enhances the faculty members' attitude towards implementing the e-learning system. These results can be an excellent example of creating an effective e-learning platform for implementing an e-learning environment in the teaching-learning process.
